The fragrant and soft glutinous rice siomai recipe uses bacon instead of ham, giving it a unique flavor. I have always felt that making snacks is a strenuous task that requires a lot of patience and perseverance, but every time I taste the deliciousness after making it, I can't help but feel happy and secretly think about continuing next time.
