    Dragon Boat Festival is right around the corner (June 10th, 2024). One of its highlights is enjoying Zongzi, also known as sticky rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo leaves, a traditional delicacy originating during China's Warring States Period over 22 centuries ago. There is something unique about bamboo leaves. It is so fragrant and iconic. This zongzi also has a sense of fried shallots and scallions. Just looking at the gooey rice and abundant fillings, my mouth is drooling. I will be honest, making zongzi is complicated and time-consuming, but it is truly delicious! I will guide you step by step and go into every detail to ensure your success. Happy Dragon Boat Festival.
    Ingredients (makes 12 Zongzi)
    800g / 1.76 lbs / 4 cups of glutinous rice (Amazon Link - geni.us/glutinous-rice)
    3 tbsp of vegetable oil
    3 scallions, diced
    2 shallots, diced
    4 tsps of dark soy sauce (Amazon Link - geni.us/dark-soy-sauce)
    24 pieces of bamboo leaves (Product Link - curatedkitchenware.com/produc...)
    12 salted egg yolks
    45g / 1.6 oz dried shiitake mushrooms (Amazon Link - geni.us/dried-shiitake)
    To Marinate the beef
    400g / 14 oz of beef
    4 cloves of garlic, grated
    1/2 inch of ginger
    1 big piece of fermented bean curd (Amazon Link - geni.us/fermented-soybean-curd)
    1 tbsp of dark soy sauce (Amazon Link - geni.us/dark-soy-sauce)
    1 tbsp of oyster sauce (Amazon Link - geni.us/premium-oyster-sauce)
    1 tbsp of soy sauce (Amazon Link - geni.us/light-soy-sauce)
    1 tsp of salt
    1/2 tsp of five-spice powder (Product Link - curatedkitchenware.com/produc...)
    1/2 tsp of black pepper
    1/2 tsp of Sichuan Peppercorn powder (Product Link - curatedkitchenware.com/produc...)
    1 Tbsp of chili flake
    1/2 Tbsp of brown sugar
    Ingredient Tips:
    You can use beef chuck, brisket, shank, or other stew meat for this recipe.
    If you can't handle spicy food, you can skip the chili flake.
    Fermented bean curd (腐乳) adds a unique flavor to char siu. When you shop in an Asian market, you may find a few different variations (Beijing style, Sichuan style, and Cantonese style). Please pick the Sichuan style, which should be cured in chili oil. If unavailable, substitute with 1 Tbsp of Japanese miso paste. While the flavor differs, miso is also a fermented soy product and will enhance the taste of your roasted pork. You can also check this video to learn how to make homemade fermented bean curd - • Two Fermented Tofu Rec...
    You're most likely to come across two types of bamboo leaves in the Asian markets - dried and fresh. Fresh leaves usually are vacume sealed and they are ready to use after a quick rinse, while dried ones require rehydration first. This recipe needs 24 bamboo leaves, but I recommend preparing a little more just in case of some break. If you don't know where to buy bamboo leaves, you can purchase it here - curatedkitchenware.com/produc...
    If you don't have salted egg yolks, use 12 boiled but peeled quail eggs. The flavor will be different, but quail eggs are also a popular item that Chinese people put into zongzi, so they will taste delicious.

    Missed this. Remembering my Fujian dad. Called Ma-chang by Hokkien migrant in the Philippines using pork or chicken, classically there is a version with dried shrimps too. I am excited to try making Mandy's recipe of Zhongzi. Jia you Mandy.

    I’m so glad I came by this video, I enjoy seeing other countries tradional customs, and this one made me think so much of ours in Puerto Rico , yes we make delicious Pasteles, which is time consuming too but ohhh hoe delightful. I know other Hispanics do similar according to their customs. We wrap in banana leaves and the flavor and aroma is mouthwatering. We do it with pork and grounded root vegetables , and sometimes with rice too … again thanks for sharing. I can see the connection too with your country via the great migration from the far east to the americas It’s all in the history. ❤

And I have tried MANY 🤩 Easily to complicated. Quick to time consuming. Never have I been disappointed ❤❤❤

    I made your other zongzi recipe a few times after shopping at my local Asian market to gather the necessary ingredients. They were so delicious, but I think I’ll like these even more. I’m a vegetarian, so I’ll add the seasonings to just the shiitake mushrooms. The salted egg yolk is also so flavorful that I doubt very much anyone will miss the meat in my zongzi. Thank you for another fun recipe to try.

    Love your videos, I used to help grandma make these when I was a kid. You should tell people of other variations too. There's so many regional differences in what they pack into it. She always added peanuts, mung beans, fatty pork and lap cheung in hers. She was an amazing chef and the family always came together to eat her cooking. She passed when I was very young so sadly I wasn't able to learn from her. But videos like this help me experience those memories. Thanks :D

    I haven't watched you in a while because I found out I'm allergic to soy. I was so disappointed because I love Chinese food and really liked watching your videos.i learned so much.now I've found a substitute for soy sauce. Not great b I'll get used to it I guess.at least I can make Chinese food now. You look amazing and very healthy since I watched you last. You must be very happy.thank you for sharing.

    My mom made these last month. A friend of mine had these once, but he wasn't a fan of those dry yokes and neither do I. It's optional if you want it. It all depends on preferences.

    I clicked on this fast cuz it looked so similar to a Puerto Rican dish called pasteles. Similar idea, but made with a masa made of green bananas or plantains then stuffed with meat (usually pork) and boiled in a banana leaf

    Does it matter whether the glutinous rice is shortgrain or longgrain?

    • @SoupedUpRecipes

      Both long and short grain will work. You can purchase the bamboo leaves here - curatedkitchenware.com/products/bamboo-leaves-for-zongzi

      @SoupedUpRecipes  Месяц назад +2

      Yes you can! You can freeze zongzi for up to 6 months. Whenever you want to eat them, no need to defrsot. Just resteam for 20 minutes of microwave for 2-4 minutes.
