Rice in Vietnamese culture

Vietnamese people and rice have an especially close relationship. Because the origin of Vietnam today is tied to wet rice cultivation, rice is a key ingredient in Vietnamese cuisine and also an indispensable part of the daily lives of Vietnamese people. Although rice is a simple, common staple, it has deep meaning in the local culinary culture. For Vietnamese people, rice is considered the “main” dish, while other dishes are considered “side” dishes.

Rice is also a symbol of plenty and happiness, a part of the beautiful traditional culture of the Vietnamese people. Whether of rich or poor family background, rice is an indispensable part of every Vietnamese meal. Everyone has rice to eat, and fragrant bowls of rice are always appreciated. In family and community life, rice is also a symbol of unity. That’s why there is a Vietnamese saying that “anyone who travels far always longs for a home-cooked meal from where you were born.”

In Vietnam, the ancient capital of Hue has one of the country’s richest and most distinctive culinary traditions. In Hue cuisine, rice is often prepared in a unique way. A set of dishes eaten with clay pot rice, one of Hue’s traditional specialties, is a typical example of how rice is presented in local cuisine.

Clay pot rice at Spice Viet Hue

The clay pot rice set at Spice Viet Hue offers a host of delectable options for those wanting to explore the cuisine of the ancient capital. The most popular set includes tender white rice, flavorsome caramelized shrimp, and refreshing winter melon soup. Because the rice is cooked in an earthenware pot, the flavor of the rice is preserved and blends with the natural flavors imparted by the clay pot itself. Along with the vibrant caramelized shrimp made from fresh shrimp that’s braised until hot and crispy, the clay pot rice set also comes with a bowl of refreshingly light winter melon soup, which provides a lovely balance to the saltiness of the shrimp, adding to this perfect combination of colors and flavors.

Biting into a piece of crispy braised shrimp, taken with a spoonful of fragrant rice, diners will be struck by the rich sweetness of the shrimp, the heat from chili and the sharpness of black pepper. A bowl of light winter melon soup helps balance out the meal, neutralizing the heat from the pepper and chili in the shrimp dish. In addition to the complex flavors of these dishes, diners will see for themselves the balance and harmony of Vietnamese cuisine.

In addition to clay pot rice accompanied by a main dish and a variety of side dishes, as the name suggests, Spice Viet Hue Restaurant also serves many other authentic Vietnamese dishes, showcasing the immense variety and richness of Vietnamese cuisine.
