The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional festival of the han. It is a very important festival in our hometown, so every year the Dragon Boat Festival is very busy.
The Dragon Boat Festival is the most indispensable, nature is zongzi, every year the grandmother of the Dragon Boat Festival and everyone will pack hundreds of big dumplings! There are many kinds of dumplings, such as reed le**es, bamboo shoots, wild le**es and lotus le**es. But our hometown is a lot of reeds, so most of them are wrapped in reeds. First, grandma rate the army to pick reed le**es. When picking reed le**es, a large family listens to grandmothers labor trumpet: come on! A zongzi three leaf! Hundreds of zongzi thousands of pieces, hey, come on! Listen to the drum of the general, little soldier more effort! After the reed le**es, just burn them. But the preparation material is not so simple, still h**e to go to the bazaar to buy the good red bean, the pork, the peanut, the plate millet, the jujube and the glutinous rice, also buy the red line!
Of course, the most fun time is when you make zongzi. When making zongzi, the man is responsible for cutting the meat into small pieces. Women are responsible for the washing of red beans and glutinous rice. The child was responsible for washing the basin clean, and then putting the mans work in a large basin. The older people are in charge. When everything is ready, the dumplings are started. The adults are working harder, and the kids? Is playing in a side, always when the adults do not pay attention to, to steal a couple of dates, mouth on the surface seems to be a little things didnt do, but in my heart secretly complacent - because jujube is delicious!
The final step is boiled dumplings, grandpa always keep the temperature of fire to grasp well, smell very sweet, very strong, if eating zongzi in the first, you can see the meat dumplings are always tender oil and see jujube rice dumplings are always the golden tender; The eight-treasure zongzi is always delicious, and we are cute.
Last year, my grandparents might h**e made zongzi, if they hadnt taken care of my uncle and aunt in yancheng. I was suddenly disgusted with my uncle, aunt, who had a good economic condition, why not find a babysitter? Take my joyful Dragon Boat Festival and zongzi all take away, I be so angry! Or miss the delicious dumplings!
