The method of making meat zongzi

    When I was young, I only ate white rice zongzi.It might be due to the regional differences. My first taste of meat zongzi made me fall in love with it, so I learned how to make them. However, wrapping zongzi is quite a skill, and all I can do is just wrap them up; other details are beyond my capabilities.
