    This is, hands down one of the best beginner friendly recipes I have sourced. The other long format recipes are great too but not everyone has the time or hands to coordinate that😅. Thank you Mandy for thinking of those of us just starting out on our culinary adventure through Chinese cuisine 😄

    I remember watching my grandmother make these back in the 1960’s. They were always a mystery to me, but you make them look so much easier.

    Love these! First time I tried them was over 30 yrs ago and I bought one from the grannies selling them on the street in our local Chinatown. It was delicious and I would always go back to get more. I have never forgotten the first taste. After a couple of years, the city stopped the grannies from selling. Still the best ones I ever had.

    I didn't know how the presentation of the video could be improved but I love this format! The floating camera and different camera angles make it feel like a food network show. I really like the classic end where you're eating the food and describing it as you are eating it. It makes me feel like I'm eating it too and having a conversation about why it's so good.
    Great video and it seems very simple just a little time consuming but I can't wait to give this recipe a shot!

    Having ADHD makes it difficult (dangerous) for me to cook anything that takes more than 5~10min (without ending up burning the house down), but watching your videos while I eat greatly overhauls anything I wrangled together! And it's so interesting and inspiring! I love the cultural details!

    "Hi, everyonnnnnnnnnnne!" ☺️ Hi, Mandy! This reminds me of making Mexican tamales - seasoned carb and meat wrapped in fragrant leaves, and cooked slowly for a long time. So delicious! I cannot wait for Arizona to cool down again (five-and-a-half months until mid-November, sadly enough!) so I can try this. (Cuz ain't NO WAY I am turning that stove on for more than ten minutes these summer days! Ha!) Your videos always help me to learn something new, and every single one of your videos' recipes that I have tried has been delicious, and I am sure this one will be the same. Thank you, Mandy!

  • @christophiszot
    @christophiszot 2 года назад +3

    Love this. I had zongzi but did not make it myself; bought it in the Asian Market in Antwerp (Belgium). I always bought a ton, so I could freeze them and every once and a while I boiled one or two and enjoyed it so much. However, they also stuffed it with shi take and nuts, not only meat. I would love to try yours, thanks to explain it so clearly. You are the best teacher!

    I like the step by step direction and close up the details such as when she points the smooth side of the bamboo leave. Because bamboo leaves are not smooth on both sides to begin with which will make some people confused.

  • @sitmengchue4077
    @sitmengchue4077 Год назад

    I like your glut rice n bamboo leaves preparation short cuts.
    Never thought of soaking the rice in hot water or of boiling the leaves.
    We just soak these 2 items overnight.

    @yr5179 2 года назад +1

    I used to sit next to my grandma as a small kid, watching her wrapping zongzi for me, I remember it looked very magicalXD. She left me a few year ao:( but I will always remember her with this nice memory with zongzi! btw, I'm from the north China, we don't use meat, but only with sweet dates or beans paste. I thought it was weird when I heard they use meat in the south, but when I tried them brought by a friend, it was DELICIOUS!thank you for making this video and letting more people know about this traditional food!:D

    I made this today, I coudn't get bamboo leaves so I used Corn Husks, Folding the parcels was very tricky, but I got better as I went along. It didn't seem to affect the end result anyways.
    It was delicious, and super filling, thank you for the video!

    I LOVE THIS DISH SO MUCH! I wanted to learn how to make it myself for years- thank you so much for sharing. My home houses exchange students all the time and I made a point to diversify my cooking knowledge in order to make the kids feel like homesick. At this point o know how to make some dumplings, jade parcels, squirrel fish, congee, and other kinds of steamed and stir fry vegetable dishes- I really wanted to add this particular dish to my knowledge as well! So thank you! 💕

  • @mrchin7562
    @mrchin7562 Год назад +1

    Gonna have to make these.
    In my hometown (Kuching) we wrap them in rehydrated dried screwpine (if I remember their name correctly) leaves -- extra fragrance. My uncle adds colouring made from blue pea flowers -- he's a cook and nyonya, but most of the recipe should be the same.
    Haven't made these since I was a wee kid. Hope they work out. lol Recipe saved.

  • @iabbervocium
    @iabbervocium 2 года назад +23

    This reminds me of the tamale making process where it is done during Christmas holiday season among Latin culture in Mexico and California. The similarity is especially regarding family and friends gathering in the kitchen to pitch in while making lots of them. The ingredients are different but the processing is similar enough. I want to go to Chinatown in Los Angeles to try this dish, because I’m curious and it looks delicious. This is my second time in a while looking at the video. Yum 😋

    My taishanese mom makes it with peanuts, salted egg yolk, dried shrimp, Chinese sausage, and lapyuk. I never liked any of these fillings growing up lol.
    She also makes an alkaline one. It has a red wooden stick inside. The zhong itself is bitter and we eat it with sugar or syrup.

    Your recipes look so delicious and your step-by-step instructions make it look so easy. Some day I will have to give it a go and stop replying on Chinese take out. This recipe reminds me of tamales. Looks really good!
