| | Zongzi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Some types of zongzi contain no filling at all, in which case they are usually eaten with sugar or syrup. |  | | Fillings may be sweet, such as mashed yellow beans, or savoury, and may include pork, Chinese mushrooms, salted egg, and chestnuts. |  | | The rice dumpling is usually a pyramid of rice which encloses the filling and wrapped in dried (or more rarely fresh) leaves. |

 | | Zongzi is by far one of my most favorite Chinese food, besides baozi and dumplings (is it weird that even though I grew up saying "baozi" and "zongzi", I didn't grow up with "jiaozi"?). |  | | As far as I know, there's no such thing as a vegetable zongzi, as that would probably go against the zongzi philosophy of allowing you to easily eat rice, meat, egg, and legume in one bite (there are dessert versions, but I have yet to find one I like). |  | | For dinner I had a major zongzi craving. |
