Taste of Dumpling 粽子的味道


Yesterday(16th of June) was Duanwu Festival (also known as Dragon Boat Festival), but I didn't get any dumpling(zong zi) at all.. *sad* :'(
But I get it today!!! *super happy* My family came to KL and took DUMPLINGS for me! *hop around*
They are handmade by my lovely grandmum.. :)
The Big Dumpling- Pork Dumpling(Bak Chang in Hokkian)


Wow, it looks so tasty!!! Do you want to try it?


Inside got a lots of porkssss, mushrooms, peanuts, dried prawns.. *yummy* 

Do you see the egg yolk? I love dumplingssssss... *winks*


Not really big but it is so full..!


This is the small dumpling(Ki Chang in Hokkian).. 


The size is damn small if compare to Bak Chang, so cute..


It is Yellow colour! 


The sauce, Gula Melaka. :)  Need to cook until the Gula melt.. 


Don't envy, it is much TASTIER than outside!


Sorry to my Muslim friends cause they are non-halal.. :'(
I'm gonna take some dumplings for my classmate..
For this festival story, you can check it on Wikipedia- DuanWu Festival

吃粽子并不是单纯享受粽子的味道,而是安抚思乡之苦。今年的粽子并不是特别好吃,有点太咸的感觉,可是却格外珍贵,因为它们拥有家乡的味道。墨绿的粽叶,酱油般的颜色,浓浓的肉香,放进嘴里特别香甜的五花肉,淡淡的花生香及特别有嚼劲的蘑菇,但让也少不了亲爱的蛋黄,让整个粽子拥有端午节的灵魂。碱水粽,我最爱的小食之一,黄澄澄的颜色吸引了馋嘴的我,甜甜的黑糖,软软QQ的嚼劲,让我堕进情网的感觉,我爱它,碱水宝宝。今年的端午节有点平淡,让人忘了它的存在,只有淡淡的粽味,把它从我们的记忆中勾引出来...迟来的粽子,却把温暖送到我怀里。
