Chinese Cookery: Mama Peggy's Zongzi


Zongzi are a celebrated Chinese holiday food during the Dragon Boat Festival, which falls on June 25 this year. We invite you to join us for zongzi making to appreciate year round. In this gluten free optional class we will prepare savory zongzi, a sticky rice specialty traditionally stuffed with pork belly, wrapped in aromatic bamboo leaves. We’ll explore vegetarian fillings in addition to preparing soy marinated pork. For an accompanying savory side we will make pao cai pickles, brine fermented vegetables!
