The photo captures the moment a shirtless craftsman, eyes focused, lifts trays of steaming banh hoi out of a large steamer.
The rays of sunlight shining obliquely from the roof through the white smoke create a scene that is both realistic and magical. The thin, pure white rice vermicelli layers are arranged in regular layers, reflecting the meticulousness and meticulousness of a long-standing traditional profession.
The photo honors the beauty of diligence, labor and tradition in Vietnamese life, and at the same time shows the photographer's talent in clearly depicting the contrast of light - dark, smoke - steam to create a vivid picture.
"Banh Hoi is a famous Vietnamese dish, appearing in many localities such as Binh Thuan, Vung Tau, Ben Tre, Phu Yen, Nha Trang and Binh Dinh. The cake is made from rice flour and has an elaborate and meticulous processing process. Banh Hoi is often eaten with scallion oil, roasted meat, grilled meat and pork offal. This is an indispensable dish in holidays, weddings and ceremonies at temples. Not only is it a dish, Banh Hoi also carries the typical culinary culture of each region," World Food Photography Awards captioned under the photo.
