In fact, this kind of food is not special, but we rarely taste it at ordinary times, but when it comes to the Spring Festival, especially the first day of the New Year, every household is indispensable!
It's glutinous rice balls.
I like to eat dumplings and watch them float in the water. I remember once, my mother made me dumplings. I saw my mother first pour glutinous rice noodles into a basin, mix them with boiling water and knead them into dough. Then every time she grabs a small ball of noodles from the dough and rubs it into the shape of corn in her hand, then puts sugar in the middle and rubs it into the shape of a ping-pong ball. After the water in the pot boiled, she put it all down. Mom put the lid on, only anxious and long waiting. Greedy, I often secretly open the lid and see only the white ball on the bottom of the water. After a while, a few floated up first, then a few floated up, and gradually, they floated up and fell down. It was really cute.
Mother subconsciously touched my nose with her flour-covered hand. It turns out that I am already "salivating" when I look at jiaozi in the pot. So, my mother found a bowl of chopsticks and picked up some floating jiaozi from the pot. Jiaozi is steaming, but I don't care at all. I quickly opened one with chopsticks and put it in my mouth. The weather is very hot, but the soft, fragrant and sweet feeling is really great. I couldn't help giving my mother a thumbs-up sign.
My mother told me that jiaozi can also wrap many kinds of fillings. Some people wrap vegetables in jiaozi, saying that it can prevent them from getting angry. Some of them like sweets, so they put some brown sugar powder in the jiaozi. As for everyone who likes to eat glutinous rice balls during the Spring Festival, my mother said that glutinous rice balls symbolize happiness and reunion, and its name represents people's good wishes for life!
