SIMPANG AMPAT (Penang), June 10 – As a Malaccan, my go-to rice dumpling (or
zongzi) has to be the sweet and savoury Nyonya
zhang, tinged with the natural blue of butterfly pea flowers and riddled with morsels of dried winter melon.
The health conscious foodie might prefer a millet rice dumpling with shiitake mushrooms while others a Cantonese version pairing mung beans with salted egg yolks.
