    I like the detailed and slow enough demostration, it's the first time I saw the Zongzi maiking in vedio, and I never knew how was it made in the past, as I always buy it from the resturanunt /shop.
    Only thing is the Cantonees styles we always use Green beans ( or Mung's beans), never come across to Bleak eye peas, surely it tastes not much different. Thank you for the well made educational vedio.

    Nicely done. I was only familiar with the pork zongzi.

      We wanted to give to some friends too, but they don’t eat pork. So, the marinated chicken thighs are a great substitute! 😊 thanks for the kind words

    Omg... Many videos showing an ordinary or regular wrapping technique. I am lucky that i found your video!. I love to eat zhongzhi and can finish 2 at once 😅. I made by my self because i don't feel satisfied with the size out there. It turned my Zhong zhi burst snd spread out because i push to much to fit more filling 😢. Thank you for the tutorial. Earm regards from Indonesia. Wish you and your mother well. Can't wait for Zhong zhi festival this year. Bless you 🙏

      ​​​@@honestfoodtalksthe appearance is look the same especially the ingredients and the leaves that you used bamboo leaves. And you can buy only that in Chinatown in Manila or also known as "Binondo".

    Can I get some advice from you? I kept my chang in the fridge so before consuming it I’ll steam it but the rice all sticks to leaves. Why is it so?

    • @honestfoodtalks
      @honestfoodtalks  Před 2 měsíci

      If you don't want it to stick to the leaves you can coat the bamboo leaves in abit of oil before you wrap them. That should help it not stick.
      We’re not 100% sure on this but it could be the type of bamboo leaves - some naturally have more of a layer that helps prevent the rice from sticking. It could also be the amount of oil used to fry/cook the ingredients help it from sticking to the bamboo leaves. Our mum glazes the rice with sesame oil at the end for fragrance and taste, but it also helps with the rice not sticking to the bamboo leaves.
      For ours, sometimes we do find a bit of the rice sticking to the bamboo leaves when we unfurl them to eat. However, they usually form and hold shape quite well without sticking to the bamboo leaves.
      Hope this helps 🙏

    Glutinous rice soaked in “ air abu soda (
    ( sodium silicate ) OR just tape water

    • @honestfoodtalks
      @honestfoodtalks  Před 7 měsíci

      We soak the glutinous rice in plain water (boiled water that’s cooled down)
      Good to know that air abu soda is sodium silicate in Malay 😊

    I never eat with chicken and beans, only pork not chicken.

    • @honestfoodtalks
      @honestfoodtalks  Před 6 měsíci

      Yes pork is the traditional style which our recipe is originally based on ☺️
