The Dragon Boat Festival, which falls on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, is a traditional Chinese festival that commemorates the poet Qu Yuan. AVENO wishes you a happy holiday and happiness every day. During this festival, people commemorate it by making zongzi. When zongzi is mentioned, people will associate it with the Dragon Boat Festival, which occupies an important place in the hearts of the Chinese people.

Zongzi is made of glutinous rice wrapped in bamboo leaves. Various ingredients are added into it according to different regions, such as meat, beans, red dates, mushrooms, etc. It can be made into tasteless, sweet, or salty, making it a delicacy suitable for all ages.

When the Dragon Boat Festival comes, many families will make zongzi, but the steps of making zongzi are complicated and the craftsmanship passed down from generation to generation has been preserved to this day:

First, you need to soak the glutinous rice in water for a few hours or overnight. This step ensures that the rice grains become plump and sticky after cooking.

Next, wash the bamboo leaves and remove any dirt or impurities. Soak the leaves in boiling water to soften them, making them easier to fold and wrap the zongzi.

Third, prepare the ingredients. Prepare the ingredients to be wrapped inside the rice dumplings according to your taste preferences. AVENO, a company located in Quanzhou, Fujian, follows local cultural characteristics and organizes everyone to wrap local traditional meat rice dumplings. Therefore, you need to prepare dried shrimps, quail eggs or chicken eggs, meat or ribs, etc., according to your preference.

Fourth, wrap the zongzi: Take a piece of bamboo leaf and fold it into a cone to form an inverted triangle. Put rice in it and add the corresponding ingredients according to your preference. Then add more rice to cover the fillings. Make sure to leave enough space to fold the leaf and tie it up.

Fifth, cook the zongzi: Put the wrapped zongzi in a large pot or pressure cooker and stew it. Add enough water to completely cover the zongzi. When the zongzi is cooked until soft, it can be served.

AVENO will celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival and allow employees to celebrate this festival with their families. Therefore, we will take a holiday from June 9th to June 10th. We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you during the holiday. During this festival, AVENO wishes you happiness every day, smooth work and prosperous business.
