1. What are the differences between special food in Vietnam and other countries?
Honestly, I don’t know the first thing about culinary arts so don’t take it from me. However, I do believe that there are some key differences between the foods we cook and those in other places. First off, I’m certain we have more kinds of spices which the cooks are able to further combine to create a unique taste to most of our traditional dishes. I think you might have tried Bun-Cha so you know what I am talking about. Additionally, most of our traditional snacks are made with healthy food options such as beans and fish. I guess our ancestors were quite advanced in this aspect.
- Culinary arts: nghệ thuật ẩm thực
2. Is there any food in your country that is eaten at special times or on special occasions?
I am pretty sure that we have a different kind of food for every big event throughout the year. For Tet, our biggest festival of the year, we have Chung Cake – which is basically glutinous rice, pork and green beans wrapped together in banana leaves. It may take 20 to 30 hours to Chung cakes to be perfectly cooked. Then, for the Mid Autumn festival we have Moon Cakes which are so good that I don’t understand why they are only made at that time of the year.
3. Why are some people willing to spend a lot of money on meals on special days?
I think that this question answers itself really. I mean, we do not call them SPECIAL DAYS for no reason. Having fancy food options on the table during these days can be seen as a way one rewards himself with. Additionally, on special occasions people have a tendency to visit one another. So, having some extravagant delicacies can help you show off your hospitality.
4. Do you think it’s good to communicate when eating with your family?
Well, from a scientific point of view, it is ill-advised to carry out conversation during meals. The reason for that is that divided attention will interfere with the way the digestive system works. I know that the effect can’t be felt immediately but experts have pointed out that if you do this regularly, it would eventually lead to chronic stomach problems.
That said, I believe that there are some pros to speaking to your family during meals. The dinner table is now the only place where a lot of families can actually see one another. This should be seen as an opportunity for these people to catch up on what the others are doing with their life.
- It is ill-advised to: không nên làm gì đó
