(Baonghean.vn) - At the end of the year, like many rice paper villages (local term is 'dry cake'),People in Yen Tien and Luu Son villages are busier than usual to prepare goods for the upcoming Lunar New Year.
 |
| Coming to Yen Tien village, Luu Son, Do Luong, it is not difficult to see long rows of rice cake stalls stretching from the beginning of the village to every small alley. |
 |
| Starting in the morning, villagers will spread the rice paper and dry it, then collect it in the afternoon. Besides some households investing in machinery for large-scale production, there are also households that still spread the rice paper manually. |
 |
| Ms. Nguyen Thi Thao, a resident of Yen Tien village, said that at the end of the year, the demand for rice paper increases, her family and many other households in the village work tirelessly. As soon as they make it, traders buy it. |
 |
| On average, each household produces from 1,200 to 1,500 trays of cakes per day to serve people's needs during and before Tet. |
 |
| Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy, one of the families with a tradition of making rice paper for nearly 50 years, said that before, the production was done manually, with a productivity of only 20-30 kg of rice per day. Five or six years ago, her family switched to machine production, making 1-2 quintals per day. |
 |
| Rice paper is not only associated with generations of people in Yen Tien village as well as many other rice paper villages in Do Luong. |
 |
| Making rice paper brings a good income to many households here. |
