In my hometown, people usually send glutinous rice dumplings and green bean cakes to their relatives during the Dragon Boat Festival. In my memory, the filling of the glutinous rice dumplings are made of red dates (red beans) and glutinous rice. Of course you can just put glutinous rice in bamboo or reed leaves.

Making glutinous rice dumplings is not an easy job. You have to practice many times in order to make good ones. Here is a tip:

1 you can buy bamboo or reed leaves on the market. Make sure that you clean and wash the leaves.

2 make the leaves into taper shape and make sure that there is no space.

3. Add soaked glutinous rice into the tapered bamboo leaves. You'd better soak the glutinous rice in water for one night.

Boil them for at least two hours and then stew for 1 hour. Do not forget to add water.

Rice dumplings with the fillings of red dates and red bean paste.

PS: I prefere to add some honey when I eat the rice dumplings.

I like it. It's so delicious, but I've never succeeded in making a good-looking one.
