Happy DuanWu Festival!

DuanWu Festival or Dragon Boat Festival or Peh Cun, is the day celebrated in Mainland China, Hongkong, Macau, Taiwan, and ethnic Chinese in Southeast Asian Countries, to commemorate Qu Yuan ( 屈原 ), the poet and minister of the ancient state of Chu during the Warring States period of the Zhou Dynasty. This festival is celebrated in the beginning on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. In this year 2024, it is celebrated on 10th June.

Zongzi is mandatory food to be eaten to celebrate this festival, because it symbolizes wrapped rice in leaves thrown to river to distract fish to not disturb Qu Yuan’s body who drowned himself in river.

In Indonesia, zongzi is called ‘bakcang’, which is Chinese Hokkien language.

Zongzi is traditional Chinese food made from glutinous rice with several filling variety (usually the fillings I’ve eaten are pork and salted eggs, but there are also chicken meat, red bean, and others), wrapped in bamboo leaves.

Zongzi can be broadly categorised into southern and northern preparation styles, although there are many more regional varieties to consider. Southern Chinese-style zongzi tend to be pyramid- or pillow-shaped and are stuffed with savoury ingredients, including salted egg yolk, pork, shiitake mushrooms, mung beans, taro, shredded chicken, and lap cheong (pork sausage).
