DESCRIPTION

Made with passion, this T-shirt is a tribute to the delicious world of Chinatown cuisine. 🥢

Joong originated in ancient China when it was prepared during the Dragon Boat Festival, a celebration of remembrance and protection against misfortune. These aromatic and flavorful glutinous rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo leaves are filled with various ingredients. In northern China, they are typically sweet and filled with red bean paste. In southern China, joong are savory and filled with braised meats, salted egg yolk, peanuts, and mung beans. 🇨🇳
