Shanghai Style Handmade Pork Zongzi (上海猪肉粽子)

Zongzi, or sticky rice dumplings, While enjoyed mostly during the 2000-year-old Chinese Duan Wu Festival (Duānwǔ Jié 端午节) or Dragon Boat Festival, zongzi can be enjoyed any time of the year.

Shanghai-Style Pork Zongzi (粽子) – Sticky Rice Dumplings. Zongzi (粽子) are traditional Chinese sticky rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo leaves, typically eaten during the Dragon Boat Festival (端午节, Duānwǔ Jié). The Shanghai-style pork zongzi is a savory, hearty version featuring marinated pork belly, glutinous rice, and rich seasonings, all steamed to perfection. For savory sticky rice dumplings, it’s best to eat them when they’re hot or at least warm. No condiments necessary, but sometimes Kaitlin likes to add chili oil to hers. She is weird, but you can be weird too if you want.

Eating Tip:

• Unwrap and enjoy hot; the rice should be sticky, glossy, and infused with pork fat.
• Some dip in soy sauce or chili oil for extra flavor.
