When the date is near, a lot of sister, mother and even grandmother busy
cooking and wrapping Rice Dumpling or ZongZi (Mandarin) or Bak Chang (Hockien) 
that are made from glutinous rice, roast pork, dried prawn, salted egg,
mushroom and etc.

 

Do you know how long it take to make Bak Chang?
The whole process  actually can take up to days depend on your recipe.

 

Cooking alone already took 4 – 8 hours
and that HAVEN include
- Cutting
- Frying
- Wrapping

 

Some even marinate their ingredients days before they cook!!

 

FUH… LABOUR of LOVE indeed!!  (♥.♥)
If you receive from someone who make them self,
Remember to appreciate and say Thank You   ;-)
