Qu was a minister of the State of Chu during the Warring States Period (475-221 BC). He was upright, loyal and highly esteemed for his wise counsel that brought peace and prosperity to the state.

But one year, the spirit of Qu appeared and told the mourners that a huge reptile in the river had stolen the rice. The spirit then advised them to wrap the rice in silk and bind it with five different-coloured threads before tossing it into the river.

Ingredients such as beans, lotus seeds, chestnuts, pork fat and the golden yolk of a salted duck egg are often added to the glutinous rice.
