Chinese Rice Dumplings: Zongzi (粽子) or "Bakchang"

@klyeoh

The filling usually consists of fatty pork belly, salted duck’s egg yolk, chestnuts, dried shrimps, and shitake mushroom. There will be variations where, in addition to the ingredients described earleir, you also get mashed mung beans (Cantonese-influenced)

I am luke warm with savoury zongzi, I especially dislike the (overcooked) chestnut and the fat (usually tasteless). (I suspect that I didn’t come across good ones too.) I like it plain, or sweet one with mung beans. LOL I like better lor mai kai.
