Zongzi ( Zhang or Chinese Rice dumpings)

Duanwu Festival 端午節 or Dragon boat festival for 2013 falls on 12 th Jun 2013. This is also the festival whereby Chinese eats Zongzi or Zhang. As usual so many of my friends asked again to make zongzi for them. Making zongzi is no difficult and with a little bit of practice, anyone can make good and beautiful zongzi.

The ones that are sold in Asian grocery shops down here in Perth are imported from China and are not fresh. It is always better to make your own.
If you are from Miri, Sarawak, I am sure you have eaten crushed or grinded peanuts rice dumpling ( Zhang). I think Miri is the only place in this world that sells this type of dumplings.

Butter Milk Buns- 奶油包

Butter Milk Buns are very popular in Malaysia and Brunei. When I tried to look for it in Perth, I could find any. I guessed this must be another Malaysian creation. This is my 2nd attempt with the fillings. The first filling recipes which I copied from a US website was totally useless and a failure. This time I used the recipe from a Brunei friend. It was a success. The Bun dough recipe was from Kuala Terengganu, a specialty over there. The Bun was very soft even after it cooled down. The butter milk was very nice as well. Two of the fillings in my buns burst during baking but that was because I did not cover up the dough well and it leaked out. Rest of the Buns were perfect. *makes 11pcs of medium size Buns Gelatinised dough 50g bread flour 35ml hot boiling water 1.
