New Year has its own customs. In the north, people eat dumplings. I am from Zhaoqing, Guangdong. I didn't have to go home for the Chinese New Year this year, and I feel nostalgic. I had to make a few myself. (Authentic steamed zongzi is not like this. If the authentic wrapped zongzi is pyramid shaped and uses winter leaves, I haven't bought it and can't make a pyramid shaped one. Only the filling is authentic. Please forgive me and work hard next year.)
