Theo quan niệm của đồng bào La Chí, trước mùa gặt, trước khi được ăn những hạt lúa mới, bà con phải làm lễ mừng cơm mới để cúng và báo tin với tổ tiên, tạ ơn trời đất. Vào khoảng đầu tháng 9 âm lịch, khi những bông lúa ngoài đồng bắt đầu chín vàng, người có uy tín nhất trong bản sẽ chọn một ngày tốt, và thông báo với bà con chuẩn bị lễ vật cúng mừng cơm mới. Mâm lễ chủ yếu là những sản vật mà bà con thường dùng hàng ngày như thịt, cá, chuột, nhộng ong, rượu, thảo quả…chắc chắn phải có nếp hoặc cơm được nấu từ lúa vừa được gặt ở ruộng về. Củ gừng cũng là một thứ không thể thiếu trong mâm lễ, bởi theo quan niệm của người La Chí, củ gừng được coi như là vật nối liền giữa âm và dương, luôn hiện diện trong những lễ cúng của bà con nơi này. Người cúng một tay cầm củ gừng, một tay rót rượu vào sừng trâu miệng đọc bài cúng khấn mời thần linh, tổ tiên về ăn cơm mới. Mong thần linh, tổ tiên chứng kiến lòng thành, phù hộ cho gia đình và mùa vụ tới sẽ được nhiều may mắn, thuận lợi. Buổi lễ hoàn thành, những hạt cơm đầu tiên của mùa mới đã được dâng cho tổ tiên, thần linh thì người La Chí mới được ăn những hạt gạo của mùa mới này
Lễ hội cơm mới hiện được xã Bản Phùng tổ chức định kỳ hàng năm, ngày tổ chức lễ sẽ được thông báo trước một tháng, vì ngày lúa chín không cố định, nên trước một tháng thì bà con và chính quyền mới có thể xác định chính xác ngày tổ chức lễ hội. Lễ có quy mô cấp xã nên không quá khoa trương hoành tráng, nhưng rất phù hợp cho ai thích tìm hiểu thêm về văn hóa. Sau khi tham quan xong lễ hội, Khoai đi xe máy thẳng về thành phố Hà Giang. Đường đèo đã phủ bê tông, nhưng cũng khá hiểm trở, 130km nhưng đi hơn 6 tiếng đồng hồ, bù lại cảnh hai bên đường thì đẹp và trong lành vô cùng.
Đêm ở thành phố Hàng Giang, Khoai đi ăn món cháo Ấu Tẩu nổi tiếng nơi này. Ấu tẩu là một loại củ cực độc có thể gây chết người, sánh ngang với lá ngón. Nhưng nếu chế biến đúng cách, thì củ ẩu tẩu sẽ trở thành một vị thuốc bồi bổ sức khỏe. Lưu ý, ấu tẩu phải được hầm đủ thời gian, có khi cả đêm để hết chất độc, nếu không có kinh nghiệm nấu thì nguy cơ ngộ độc rất cao. Địa chỉ Khoai ăn trong clip là quán cháo ấu tẩu Hương Tổ 5 Trần Hưng Đạo, P. Nguyễn Trãi, Hà Giang. Ghé Hà Giang mọi người nhớ thử qua nha, cô bán từ tối đến khuya. Nhớ gọi thêm tô giò heo ăn kèm và ăn thử măng chua ở đây nha.
Tái bút: Một ngày lễ cũng không kém phần quan trọng của bà con La Chí là ngày tết Khu Cù Tê. Người La Chí tự gọi mình là Cù Tê, tiếng La Chí là người mình. Tết được tổ chứ từ tháng 7 đến đầu tháng 8 âm lịch hàng năm, vào ngày này mọi người sẽ cùng nhau tưởng nhớ ông Hoàng Vần Thùng (Hoàng Dìn Thùng), một vị "vua" được người dân La chí tôn sùng và vô cùng kính trọng. Truyền thuyết kể rằng, ông đã tập hợp dân bản và giúp dân La Chí đánh lũ giặc cướp, ông còn giúp bà con làm ăn sinh sống, dạy cách trồng lúa, trồng bông, hướng dẫn bà con cách làm ăn. Nhờ có ông mà cuộc sống bà con được no ấm, đánh đuổi những kẻ định cướp bóc của dân bản. __ Mình là Khoai. Thích du lịch và ăn uống.
Wow, she's putting the pork rolls in
The pork rolls have absorbed the color of the fermented bean
Very beautiful
I'm at Hoang Su Phi Ward, Ha Giang Province
And now it's 9 am
It's still raining, as you can see
The water is pouring from above to the road
A lot of water, and I don't know when it will stop raining
I don't know when it will stop raining so I can go to see the rice fields
Over there, people are...
...the horses
Tomorrow, there will be a competition to see who can cook the best
People are using the stove
And some tools to take the fur of the horses
There was a black horse, after being shaved, its skin was exposed
I can't film this part anymore, this scene is quite...
...a bit weird
I hope it will stop raining soon
So I can go out there
To see the rice fields of Ban Phung
The road is very difficult
In the rainy season, the water is flowing
The only fault is the water stream and a lot of rocks
So we have to walk on the ground
If we can't hold on to the ground, it's easy to fall
There is an old tree here
Everywhere is rice
It smells so good
This is the rice that is ready to be harvested
In about a week
People will harvest it
Please pay attention
The rice fields are usually yellow on the outside
But it's greener on the inside
Because when the sun shines down, it's blocked by a bar
So the rice inside will always be cooked later than the rice on the outside
People will harvest the rice in the sunny season
Because after harvesting, people will leave it on the field to dry for a while before they take it to the field
Not to harvest it right away
So today, it's raining, so people don't harvest the rice
There are water tanks here
And people here will use a small tube
To draw water from this tank
Into the fields here
And the water in this area will be all year round
Especially in some other areas, there will be no water in the dry season
But here, there is water all year round in the flowing tanks like this
So it's very convenient for people to observe
But this rice tree can only be grown in one season, in the sunny season
And in the winter, the weather is very cold
So it can't be grown a lot
It's the next day
The sun is still setting, it's about 6 o'clock in the morning
And I'm going up here to see the New Rice Festival
Or it's also called the New Rice Festival
This is a traditional festival of La Chi people
Every time they finish harvesting the new rice
They have to do this ritual to use the new rice or rice
This way
As you can see, it's still foggy
Today is very lucky because there is no rain
I will go up there to see the place where people hold the festival
The New Rice Festival or New Rice Festival
Is one of the most important festivals of La Chi people
As well as the highlands people
Before the harvest season
They will start to hold a rice-offering ceremony
Offering rice here means they will offer the rice and the new rice to the ancestors, to the gods, to the heaven
To thank the gods and the heaven for the harvest season
And also to pray for the next year to be lucky and prosperous
Usually, the leader or the most famous person will come to the ceremony
And people will gather together to hold the ceremony
In the festival, the main items are the daily items that people use
Such as meat, fish, mice
Even honey, wine, or spices such as jasmine, jasmine
And certainly, in the festival, there must be sticky rice or rice harvested from the rice fields of this year
Those are the first rice
And they will bring it to cook sticky rice and rice
You can see the new rice offering ceremony of La Chi people
They put some firewoods on it
Grilled fish
There is also sticky rice, there is also mice
Mice
Most of the specialties, the local products here
They bring it to the offering ceremony
He is using the traditional scarf of La Chi people to tie on the head
Usually, this scarf is about 3 meters long
And both men and women will use this scarf to tie on the head
It depends on the men and women, they will tie it in different ways
The men will tie it horizontally like a Vietnamese bundle scarf
The La Chi people here believe that the ancient ginger is a spiritual object that connects the yin and yang
So in all the festivals related to the yin and yang
They will have the ginger in the offering ceremony
When the ceremony is completed, the first rice grains will be wrapped
And distributed evenly to the villagers or the family
And at the end of the ceremony, people will start to pick and use the rice and sticky rice of this year
The children are playing the plays of the La Chi people in the past, it's so cute
The more people visit La Chi, the more people will come to eat
So there will be more people eating
And the food is better
This is a peach
It has the skin and taste of the peach
It's a bit bitter
The peaches here are very tasty
The sugar is sweet
They are also not very sweet
It is a very delicious fruit
The fruit is quite bitter
So it is not very sweet
They are sweet, you can peel it
And also the sticky rice
The big holiday of La Chi people is
Khu Ku Te festival
You can see the phrase Khu Ku Te in the song
Ku Te in La Chi language means a person
La Chi people call them Khu Te
The Khu Ku Te festival will be held in July
And they will commemorate the king Hoang Dinh Thung
Hoang Dinh Thung is a person who is respected and respected by La Chi people
In the past, people said that he helped La Chi people to kick out the robbers
And he also helped La Chi people to educate La Chi people to do business
Plant trees, build houses
Thanks to him, their lives are warm and full
Eat a lot of things
They sell sticky rice over there
Peas
Herbs
Water spinach, water spinach, ginger, papaya
Over there is
Red fruit
There are also water spinach
Soybean
Fighting
Over here, people are picking flowers
Over there, people are picking flowers
She uses a rope to tie the flowers
One of the very special things
The flowers are flying, right?
Over there, there are some women who are separating the flower seeds from the flowers
Then she will pass it over here
Let this woman tie the flowers
And over here, there will be a woman who will cut the flowers into rings
And over here, this woman will cut the flowers into rings
This woman will have a stick
To cut the flowers that have been plucked from this woman
These two people are playing Ném Còn
One of the traditional games in the festivals of the people of the highlands
Throw it over, throw it back, then take a picture
One person throws, one person takes a picture
Wow
There are some kids here playing
Wow
I really want to try this game
It looks very interesting
The combination of two people is very lively
One person jumps up, one person falls down
Over here, people will cook later
Cook traditional dishes and local dishes
Each village will have a position
I see that only a few villages have just started preparing here
This uncle is starting to cut the dried chili
What dish is our village cooking today?
Beef
Dog meat
No wonder I saw a dream leaf over there
Over here, these people are roasting pork
Here are two chickens that have just been roasted
Over there, they are filming the pig
Lemongrass, mint
Is this a lemon leaf?
Yes
Lemongrass, mint, lemon leaf, what dish are you marinating?
Thắng Cố
Do you have a Thắng Cố leaf or just these three spices?
Yes
This is Thắng Cố
I will come over here to see
Do you usually use it to marinate grilled food?
Or just use it to stew?
This is Thắng Cố with buffalo meat
There is lemongrass
Mint
And put a lot of lemon leaves in here
Each region will have a different way of cooking Thắng Cố
And depending on the type of meat, they will put different spices
There are some places I see they put Thắng Cố leaves in
Here is only lemongrass, mint and lemon leaves
A little bit of ginger
The New Year's Eve of La Chi people is currently held annually by the local government
And the day of the event will be announced before the festival starts for about 1 month
The main harvest season will not be fixed annually
And before that month, the government and the people here will determine which day is the best harvest day
To start holding this festival
The festival is not too big, it's just about the size of the city
So if you come here, you can only spend 1 day or 1 day to visit
After visiting the New Year's Eve festival
I got on the motorbike and drove straight back to Ha Giang city
The road is only about 130 km
But I have to go for 6-7 hours
Because the road is quite small and quite dangerous
I can't drive fast
And sometimes it rains
Along with a lot of elephants and chickens
But on the other hand, the scenery around the road is very beautiful
Mountains and forests
I am seeing a very delicious guava seller
How much is this?
How much?
5,000 VND for a bag?
5,000 VND for a bag of ripe guava like this
I will buy guava to support her
No, this has bamboo shoots
Do you grow all this at home?
Yes, I do
She also has wild vegetables
It's all gone, people just leave it here
It's all gone, right?
They sell it all and leave it here
If it's all gone, how much do you sell a bag like this?
3,000 VND
3,000 VND only
Let me take the guava
I'll take this guava
Take this one
No, I only eat guava
I'll take this one
No
There is also chili
Yes
She is a long-sleeved woman
Yes
Do you sit here every day?
Yes, every day
I'm walking in the middle of the street and I see her selling things here
It's a buy-and-go chair
Let me pay for her
That is...
Ah, bamboo shoot
She has a tree to plant bamboo shoot
Yes
The guava is ripe
Very fragrant
There are a lot of guava here
If you walk along the street, you can see these trees are long
The guava is very delicious, fragrant and sweet
Thank you very much
Hi, good evening everyone
I'm Khoai
Welcome to Khoai Lang Thang channel
It's been a long time since I started a clip by sitting in the hotel and waiting for the evening like this
Actually, I just flew from Suphi to Ha Giang city
The road is quite far
I've been walking for about 6 hours
There are only 100 km of mountain roads
But I've been walking for almost 6 hours
Because of the rain, the road is quite slippery
And the road surface is also a bit rough
So I just want to sleep here and go out to eat tonight
I don't film anything
But actually, if I come to Ha Giang and don't film the guava porridge and the rice roll in Ha Giang city
to share with everyone
It's a pity
Because those are two very distinctive and quite different characteristics of this place
So, apart from that, although I'm very tired today
But I will go to film those two dishes to share with everyone
Wait for me a little bit
I will go over there to film the guava porridge
The guava porridge is near my hotel
Introduce to everyone
This is Ms. Huong, the owner of the guava porridge shop
How many years have you been selling this porridge?
I have been doing it for 20 years
20 years, wow, this is her pork leg pot
The pork leg pot and the porridge pot here
The brown color of the porridge is the characteristic color of guava
As you can see
How many kilograms of pork leg are in here?
20 kg
Most of them are pork claws, right?
Most of them are pork leg
She is scooping the broth of pork leg
Pour it into the guava porridge pot to make it richer
Normally, she sells here at 7pm
Because the guava porridge will have a medicine
It will help me sleep better
So most people will sell guava porridge at night
But rarely sell in the morning
Why did you sell this dish in the past?
In the past, this porridge was a heritage of the ancient people
Yes
The tendon, the cartilage, etc.
Will cook this dish to make it healthy
Yes
This rice is made from yellow-flowered sticky rice
Wow, now she puts the pork leg in here
The pork leg absorbs the color of guava
Very beautiful
Normally, a bowl of porridge will have a lot of scallions
And put the vegetables in
This will not only make me feel better, but also make me sleep better
It's good for health
Yes, it's good for health
Pork leg too
Later, I will give you a bowl with eggs
In here, she will put some guava pieces in
And at the end, she will put some minced pork
Now I am at the guava porridge restaurant near my house
And the bowl of guava porridge and the bowl of pork leg porridge have been brought out
Yes, thank you
This bowl of pork leg porridge is 60,000 VND
If you eat less, you can order a bowl of pork leg porridge for 40,000 VND
Put this aside
This is my bowl of guava porridge
You can see that there is a little minced pork on top
The minced pork has been dried
There is an egg here
This is the egg yolk
Let me break the egg
Break the egg and mix it with the porridge
When eating, I will mix it evenly
In the porridge, there will be 2-3 pieces of guava
And there is a little bit of scallions and guava in the bottom
This is the pork leg in the porridge
There is 1 pork leg
2 pork legs
Normally, there will be about 3 pieces
Why is this only 2 pieces?
And this is the part of the guava that has been thinly sliced
This bowl only has 2 pieces of pork leg
Maybe there is a big piece of pork leg, so she only gives 2 pieces
Depending on the size of the pork leg, she will choose whether it is big or small
A bowl like this is 35,000 VND
If you don't eat egg, it's only 30,000 VND
If you eat egg, it's 35,000 VND per bowl
I can put some herbs in here
Or not
Because there are a lot of herbs and scallions
It's very fragrant
And the special thing here that everyone should eat
That is the sour bamboo shoot
The sour bamboo shoot here includes
Bamboo shoots soaked in chili, vinegar and garlic
Very fragrant and spicy
I will take a pair of chopsticks and get some bamboo shoots
Bamboo shoots are one of the specialties in Ha Giang
If you come to Ha Giang, I think you should try these sour bamboo shoots
Most of the restaurants have this bamboo shoot
Because the bamboo shoots here are very cheap and a lot
In the South, in the East, bamboo shoots are very expensive
Normally, few people eat bamboo shoots in restaurants like this
So I have to eat a lot
Close the lid
Now I will mix it up
And try it
The bowl of porridge is very hot
Take a piece of porridge, which has tito leaves and scallions
Do you see that the color of the porridge is a bit brown?
This brown color is the characteristic brown color of the sour bamboo shoot
Take a bite
You will hear the characteristic smell of tito leaves and scallions
And there is a strong smell of sour bamboo shoot
The porridge is very fat
Fat of the egg yolk and fat of the pork leg in here
Sour bamboo shoot is a medicine
Actually, sour bamboo shoot is very toxic
Sour bamboo shoot is one of the most toxic species in the world
If you don't know how to cook it, but you eat it raw or eat it with its toxin
It will affect your life
It's a bit noisy in here because the space is a bit yellow
Where did I say?
Usually, the person who cooks sour bamboo shoot
They have to soak the sour bamboo shoot for a long time, about 5-6 hours
To get the toxin
And when it reaches the softness
Usually, the owner will taste it by mouth to see if it is still toxic
So if you eat this dish, you have to eat at the right place
And the cook must have experience
Then you can make this sour bamboo shoot into a medicine
Usually, you will see that sour bamboo shoot is sold in the evening
But few people sell it in the morning
Because there is a lot of medicine in this sour bamboo shoot
It will help you sleep easily
So if you eat this at night, it will be very delicious at night
I will try the sour bamboo shoot
The sour bamboo shoot is quite bitter
And it tastes like medicine
In the past, if my father went to practice martial arts
If he had a sore arm or a sore leg, he would cook a pot of sour bamboo shoot and eat it
In the past, the Mong people used this to make medicine
And sometimes they used it to make porridge to relieve the cold
Then my family will bring this sour bamboo shoot home
Then cook more spices, more pork rolls
So now it has become a characteristic dish of Ha Giang
And the point I like the most in the sour bamboo shoot pot is pork rolls
Pork rolls is the dish that makes me addicted to the sour bamboo shoot dish here
This is a bowl of pork rolls, 60,000 VND, I just asked for more
There are about 10-15 pieces of pork rolls
This is the pork roll and I will try this piece
Ah, is it delicious?
The pork roll is very soft, so you don't have to dip it
It has the brown color of the sour bamboo shoot
And here is the tendon
The pork roll is very soft
The tendon is still chewy and has a lot of fat
It's the kind of pork roll I like
In the past, I remember that there was a lady who sold rice noodles
Her rice noodles were very normal
But her pork rolls were super excellent
It's like I'm used to it
Every time I crave pork rolls, I run to her
To order a small bowl of rice noodles and 4-5 more pork rolls
Eating this reminds me of that lady
Hmm
The pork roll has a hint of the sour bamboo shoot
It makes the taste more special
Now I will focus on eating my bowl of sour bamboo shoot
Then go around Ha Giang city at night
At night, I will go over there to eat rice noodles
In Ha Giang, there are many restaurants open after 7 p.m
This sour bamboo shoot restaurant is the same
If you want to eat, you have to wait until 7 p.m
Come here to have porridge
That's it, I will continue to eat
As you can see, I said I would go to Ha Giang to eat rice noodles
But there was a very unfortunate thing
When I came to this lady's rice noodles restaurant
She just got married
Because today is the weekend
So she closed the restaurant and I went to the wedding
Therefore, I did not film a video about Ha Giang rice noodles for everyone to see
And today is the last day in Ha Giang city
Tomorrow I will continue to travel
So I will probably make another appointment
I will come back to Ha Giang to share with you later
Now I will go back to the hotel to rest
Because today I have been on the road from noon to now
Goodbye everyone
See you in the next clips
Goodbye everyone
I am Khoai
