Crafts and culture :  

It is a tradition of the families in Chaozhou to prepare this kind of dumpling especially for the Dragon Boat Festival. During this period, the weather is too hot for us to have a good appetite and this product can ¡¥lower our heat and help our stomach¡¦, so it has become a popular seasonal food.

Method :

A thread is used instead of a knife to cut the dumpling into smaller parts because the adhesive material will stick to the knife when being cut.
