Duration
7:45 Hours
Your friendly Hoianese hosts will introduce you to their farm, and their water buffalo, and kit you out in a traditional ‘bà ba’ farming shirt. In this idyllic setting, you can get involved in the entire process of rice production, from ploughing and sowing seeds, to transplanting and grinding rice. At the farmhouse you’ll learn traditional methods for making white cooking rice, including grinding, winnowing, pounding and sifting. Then relax as your hosts show you how to make rice milk and cook rice-paper cakes, before enjoying the fruits of your labour in a tasty lunch.
