In the fall, with the cool weather, Hanoi cuisine seems to be more flavorful with the typical delicacies of the season, including the "specialty" green rice and dishes made from green rice. Traditional green rice craft villages in Hanoi such as Vong village, Me Tri village... attract tourists with the sound of pounding green rice in families doing the traditional craft. Green rice is not just a dish, it is the quintessence of heaven and earth converging in each young sticky rice grain. After being threshed, the young rice is roasted on a small iron pan, pounded, and winnowed many times until the green rice grains are flat, green, sticky, and have a gentle aroma of new rice. Each stage is an art, requiring meticulousness, so Hanoi green rice carries within it the sophistication, elegance, and sophistication.
Hanoians have their own way of eating green rice, picking up small handfuls and chewing slowly to feel the sweet taste, the faint aroma of young rice and the soft, sticky texture that melts on the tip of the tongue. From the rustic ingredients of green green rice, Hanoians have skillfully created countless delicious and sophisticated dishes, bearing the unique charm of the capital's cuisine such as green rice sausage, green rice sticky rice, green rice cake, green rice sweet soup...
Each dish is not only a skillful combination of flavors, but also the crystallization of the talented hands and elegant souls of the people of Trang An. Com sausage is shaped into bite-sized pieces, when fried, it turns golden brown, crispy on the outside but soft on the inside, dotted with green sticky rice grains, creating a rich yet elegant taste. Com cake is another symbol of sophistication - a square cake, inside is a smooth layer of mung bean paste mixed with coconut fibers, surrounded by a layer of fragrant, sweet sticky rice. Com sweet soup, Com sticky rice or Com ice cream... are all ways for Hanoians to express their love and care for young Com - a typical gift of the Capital's autumn.
This season, Hanoians also have their own way to enjoy poetic afternoon tea. On a small tray, some rustic gifts are skillfully displayed: Fresh green rice wrapped in green lotus leaves eaten with pink bananas, red persimmons or sweet, crispy pickled persimmons; sometimes a plate of green rice sticky rice, green rice cakes, or a bowl of sticky fried green rice, next to a cup of rich, fragrant egg coffee. These seemingly simple gifts, through the sophisticated enjoyment of the people of Trang An, become an elegant cultural feature, contributing to attracting tourists every autumn.
