The store bought ones are never quite as good as homemade ones! <br /><br />I guess it just takes practice and just like any Chinese dish, it is not to difficult but just takes time to prepare...<br /><br />http://spaghettofu.blogspot.com/2009/05/dragon-boat-festival.htmlhikkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16761734123787435363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11497809.post-22453431417333819562009-06-02T07:09:01.143-06:002009-06-02T07:09:01.143-06:00Wow C, those look very good!

But for the second batch of the glutinous rice that was not soaked before (the ones that took 3.5 hours to simmer), I was too lazy to fry it, I just mixed in the sauce with spices, no different at all.Little Corner of Minehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09722570387776029291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11497809.post-80100112282770126372009-05-29T11:37:16.520-06:002009-05-29T11:37:16.520-06:00Thanks Pei-Lin and happy Duan Wu Jia to you too! ...Thanks Pei-Lin and happy Duan Wu Jia to you too! I know for us living overseas, we have to make in order to eat! 很麻烦是吗?<br /><br />Yes Anon, it was yummy and we are savoring every bite. Very fulfilling after the hard work. :P<br /><br />Tigerfish, we can get the bamboo leaves at Asian supermarket here. I got the strings at Lowe's.<br /><br />Hi Family First, yes practice makes perfect! I had years of practice already. :)<br /><br />Thanks Blur Mommy. I know it's always fall in May so just had to search online for the exact date. <br /><br />Aww Charming. Nevermind, you can do it next year. <br /><br />Haha Les, your mom so funny lah. I saw your chang before, and I know you wrapped it very well too. Will hop over to see your chang next. :)<br /><br />Thanks Danny. Hope you can get some chang at your place.<br /><br />Thanks SueSue. If you see my chang, I tied it individually and not in bundle. So, it's easy for me to tie it.<br /><br />Pigpigs, don't think there is any tips, but practice makes perfect. <br />;)<br /><br />Thanks Gert. I think it's too costly to ship chang, but Les is making some chang, maybe can ask her to freeze a few for you? <br /><br />Thanks Emile. Yeah, should go over and help your mom to make one day and then you will know how to do it yourself later. :)<br /><br />Yes Cindy, many steps involved since the ingredients have to be precooked. Then, wrapping and boiling will take the whole day. Definitely hard work!<br /><br />Thanks food4tots. Sorry for making you drool. :P<br /><br />Thanks Sue. Living overseas is like that lah, everything has to be hands on. Also, I just loved rice dumplings so had to make it. You know I am not that hard working right, but for something that I really loved, then had to do it. :PLittle Corner of Minehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09722570387776029291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11497809.post-36621038653701817462009-05-29T11:12:35.685-06:002009-05-29T11:12:35.685-06:00They look great!
