Divide the rice dumpling leaves into front and back sides, blanch them, and cut off both ends. If you think one piece is not big enough, stick two rough sides together.

First make the sweet rice dumplings, roll up one-third of the leaves into a funnel shape, fill it with a little miscellaneous beans first, and then fill in larger ones such as chestnut kernels, dates, etc. in batches, separated by miscellaneous beans and rice.

Until the entire funnel is filled, but the surface should be flush and not protruding, pinch both sides of the funnel with your right hand, press down the long leaves on the top with your left hand to cover it, fold in the excess left and right, and then continue folding according to the shape.

Cook the salty and sweet rice dumplings separately.
