INTANGIBLE CULTURAL HERITAGE

Hakka Rice Dumplings

“Hakka” means “guest people” in Chinese. A group of Hakka settled in Mui Tsz Lam, a village in North-East New Territories of Hong Kong, since the Qing Dynasty during the 17th Century. The Hakka people are known for being hardworking and enduring. Since they farmed on less fertile terraces, their food grown is modest and practical. This culture is also reflected in festive foods like rice dumplings for the Tuen Ng Festival, also known as the Dragon Boat Festival.
