Founded in 1997, Red Boat is a zongzi brand under Jiaxing Nanhuzhai Food Co., Ltd., which comes from Jiaxing, the land of fish and rice. Hongchuan brand zongzi has won gold medals in the provincial agricultural expo and the China zongzi cultural festival for many times, and enjoys a high reputation in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai.
The unique advantage of the red boat zongzi is that the meat filling is larger than others, the amount of zongzi is also sufficient, the filling is fresh, although the taste is not as good as Wufangzhai and other first-line brands, but the price is affordable, the average down 100g zongzi is only 2~4 yuan, which is quite cost-effective at this price.
At present, the red boat mainly has fresh meat egg yolk dumplings, red bean dumplings, candied date dumplings, chestnut dumplings, fine sand dumplings, etc., there is no gift box, they are all ordinary packaging, and it is very cost-effective to eat at home. The salty meat dumplings of the red boat are not special from the appearance, but they are cut with one knife, the filling is different from other zongzi, the meat will not look dry, the glutinous rice is soft and rotten, the chewiness is insufficient, the egg yolk powder is glutinous, and the oil is oily, and eating a few more bites will make people feel greasy.
As an authentic Jiaxing zongzi, the sweet rice dumplings are filled with traditional red bean paste, you can eat complete red bean grains, chewy, the dense bean paste filling and the fragrant osmanthus stuffed are staggered and blended in the rice, the taste is glutinous but not mushy, and there will be bean paste flowing out when it is cut while it is hot, and the color and flavor are complete. Red Boat's zongzi filling is traditional, and the portion size is not large, making it suitable for breakfast. Red Boat Zongzi products are only available around the Dragon Boat Festival, and are rarely sold on e-commerce on weekdays.
