Bustling popcorn season in the countryside

(Baonghean.vn) - When autumn comes, the village children beg their mothers for some rice, sugar, green beans, etc., then call each other to go pop popcorn. This rustic gift has been associated with the childhood memories of many generations in the rural countryside.

Popcorn is a special treat for children in rural areas, mainly made from rice. It is rarely available in the markets, if anyone wants to eat it, they have to bring the ingredients to the rice mill in the village to 'popcorn'.

The ingredients to make popcorn are quite simple, readily available in farmers' homes. They can be made from sticky rice mixed with mung beans and sugar, and sometimes instant noodles can also be used as an ingredient.

It only costs about 3,000 VND to explode a tube of raw cow's milk.

It takes two people to pop popcorn. One person mixes the ingredients and puts them into the machine, the other quickly uses scissors to cut the popped tube into pieces.

The ingredients include white rice and instant noodles, mixed well in the rolling machine hopper before forming popcorn.

Just a simple gift, but popcorn has followed children throughout their childhood. Then one day, suddenly, their hearts flutter when thinking about the joy of childhood.
