The ancient Tu Le region is now famous for its delicious sticky rice. From these heavenly ingredients and delicate hands, they have created many dishes that attract people’s hearts. In the days when people have just rested from work, people invite each other to pound nuggets (com tan). Each beat of the pestle resounded in the night as if dispelling the daily fatigue.
Com Tan Le is considered as delicious as the famous Com Vong village . The still green rice grains, still wet with dew, were carried home by the hand of the reaper.
In order for the nuggets to retain their fresh flavor, they must roast them right after they are finished. You must use a cast iron pan to heat the sticky rice evenly without burning it. Then wait for these cool green pearls to cool, they pound them in handfuls. It takes turns to pound nearly a dozen mortars to get a batch of nuggets.
Tired and burdened like that, but when I see a bunch of green, melted green nuggets in my hand, every beat of the pestle keeps pounding to finish the batch.
To keep the aroma and original greenness of the nuggets, people often wrap them in dong leaves. Tu Le nuggets are used in many different dishes, but there is still a time that does not make people less passionate. This kind of pearl that grows in this land halfway through the sky knows how to win people’s hearts when it is both delicious and fragrant as if it has just been hatched in a bag of incense.
Every August and September every year when the glutinous rice seeds are lying on the side of the Muong Luong stream laden with branches, the season of nuggets has arrived. Each beat of the pestle moves up and down evenly for a fragrant batch of nuggets. The seemingly idyllic pearl from heaven now contributes a little more to create a poetic and charming feature for this Northwest highland.
