Today is my mother's holiday. I'm going to learn to make zongzi with my mother. First, my mother took me to the supermarket and bought a bag of glutinous rice, reed leaves and red dates. After shopping, we take the small bag home. My mother washed the glutinous rice and red dates first, then soaked the reed leaves in water to prepare for the work together.
When making zongzi, I will do what my mother does. First roll the reed leaves into a funnel-shaped pattern, and then fill them with rice, not to mention red dates. Then, take another reed leaf.
Two reed leaves are wound on this funnel and on that thread to make a perfect zongzi. At this time, I looked at the zongzi in my hand and then at the zongzi in my mother's hand. This is a different world. The zongzi wrapped by my mother is countless times more delicious than mine.
After a while, my mother put me and her zongzi in the pot to cook. Half an hour later, the dumplings were cooked, and my dumplings were rotten and turned into porridge. Jiaozi cooked by my mother is delicious. It seems that I will learn from my mother to make zongzi in the future. On the Dragon Boat Festival, I let my parents eat delicious zongzi wrapped by themselves.
