Description
Exhausted after 12 hours of cooking, Nguyen Thi Thuy Hong gently unpeels the last of five leaves encasing a squishy, sticky rice cake known as "banh chung" -- a Lunar New Year delicacy in Vietnam.
The wrapped cakes of glutinous rice, green beans and pork belly have for centuries been one of several dishes prepared in a frenzy at home specially for Tet, the Vietnamese New Year which begins on Wednesday. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
