粽子英语作文

Zongzi (or zong) (Chinese: 粽子) is a traditional Chinese food, made of glutinous rice stuffed with different fillings and wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves. They are cooked by steaming or boiling. They are known in Japanese as chimaki. Laotians, Thais, and Cambodians (known as Nom Asom) also have similar traditional dishes influenced by zongzi[citation needed]. In the Western world, they are also known as rice dumplings or Chinese tamales[citation needed]. In Indonesia, it's known as bakcang or bacang (肉粽). A word 'bakcang' itself is derived from Hokkien, a Chinese dialect that is common to be used among Indonesian-Chinese beside Mandarin. Among the Filipino-Chinese people in the Philippines, zongzi is more popularly known as machang (Chinese: 肉粽; Pe�0�9h-ōe-jī: bah-tsàng) in the Lan-nang dialect

It consists with jujube, meat, peanut, egg yolk, or other fillings wrapped in bamboo leaves. Its taste varies greatly across China. Zongzi is often made of rice mixed with jujubes in Northern China, because jujubes are abundant in the area. Eastern China such as Jiaxing County is famous for its pork-stuffed Zongzi.
