It's the fifth day of the 5th lunar month (3lst May) and once again, it's time to honour the Patriotic Poet, Qu Yuan. Most people know the legend behind this festival which commemorates the life and death of this poet and today, glutinous rice dumplings have become a traditional delicacy to be enjoyed during this time. The festival is also marked by dragon boat races and other cultural festivities.
Here's a cute little video on the making of "bak chang" (glutinous rice dumplings).
Enjoy your dumplings!
