Dragon Boat Festival

More than two thousand years ago, the great patriotic poet Qu Yuan sighed in the sky on the banks of the Miluo River and plunged into the rapids. After more than two thousand years, the fifth day of May became a traditional festival - the Dragon Boat Festival, everyone packed the dragon boat Boil the eggs and commemorate the great patriotic poet in various ways.

Another year of Dragon Boat Festival, I really want to experience this atmosphere, I asked my grandmother, let her teach me how to pack a scorpion.

For the dumplings, first wash the leaves and soak them in hot water. Prepare the dates, eggs, and meat to make a trap, and cook your favorite ones. You can start work. First fold the long leaves, surround them, make a nest, put the prepared glutinous rice and glutinous rice in the middle, and wrap the edges and corners. Then put it in the rice, mix it together, and finally make the scorpion wrapped in the scorpion into a square shape.

The martial arts of this bag are all in the last process. If your scorpion is well wrapped, it depends on whether the four corners are symmetrical or not. When I started to learn, I always smashed the four corners. It was not a six-corner, but a ball.

Grandma just looked at my "masterpiece" more than once and laughed: "This, can this be called a scorpion? Where do you let the thin line?"

I am dizzy! The emotional scorpion packs four corners that are easy to hang with thin lines. How can there be no round scorpions in the world?

Put the wrapped dumplings in a wok and cook over low heat. After about 1 hour, cook for 30 minutes.

In the process of cooking the dumplings, I am always eager to uncover the lid to see the situation. Because the aroma of the scorpion floated out of the pot, I got a drool.

The waiting time is always very long. When I see the steaming scorpion finally "liberating" from the pot, I am happy to dance. Put it in a bowl and peel it off with chopsticks. You can see the golden fluffy "clam meat" inside. It takes a bite and is delicious. I almost bite down the chopsticks.

This year's Dragon Boat Festival, I learned to pack the dumplings and taste the fruits of my labor. It doesn't feel like sweetness.
