But nowadays, there are actually many ways to make rice dumplings, and there are many types of rice dumplings, including sweet rice dumplings and salty rice dumplings. There are also rice dumplings, including meat rice dumplings and candied date rice dumplings. You can choose according to the taste of yourself and your family.

The reason why rice dumplings appear is said to be to commemorate Qu Yuan. After Qu Yuan threw himself into the river, later generations would make a large number of rice dumplings and throw them into the river during the Dragon Boat Festival every year. The fish have something to eat, so they won't eat Qu Yuan's body. Of course, this is just a legend.
