I grew up eating a slight variation of the Hokkien and Cantonese versions so still prefer those now. If know how to make, it is a good family bonding exercise. I used to help my aunt in the making process when I was in pri/sec school. But I can't tie it. At best, can only fold the leaves and add in the rice and fillings. Even then, end result is quite lousy. But it's fun.

I bought Kim Choo too because the brand is readily available, I dont know what else is good. I only know the price has increase from $3+to now $5+. I believe people are going out less often, even visiting also become less frequently, so online bak zhang order and delivery business should be booming now. 

by the way, i am not sure how many here are old enough to have eaten the 虾米肉粽, the pounded dried shrimps with garlic, ginger and onion is drooling. my mum used to make them when I was younger but now she is too old to do it.  If any one know there is such lobang, maybe want to share the info here. 

 

It’s the typical annual price up for the festival.

the bonding is only between my mum and my aunties.

After reading this thread and telling my mum I wanna eat bazhang, came home today to bazhangs! But the shape looks more like Nasi lemak leh. These are from our direct neighbor. Are they reading this thread also? Haha.
