The Japanese have a similar dish and, of course, there's the Creole version (which uses a different type of red bean).<BR/><BR/>BTW, I did a Google image search, and all of the others look crude by comparison.Susan Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12178330935523896363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9110153203470551170.post-79382462658537118342008-11-24T16:40:00.000-08:002008-11-24T16:40:00.000-08:00What gives the rice that wonderful, almost purplis...What gives the rice that wonderful, almost purplish, coloring?

As a child I was in charge of applying oil to the banana leaves to keep the rice from sticking, so I didn't pay close attention to how much sugar to add to the bean curd. I do have killer recipes for Vietnamese fried egg rolls and shrimp toast that are beyond simple that I'd be happy to give you.<BR/>A cooking class with you two sounds like heaven.

I remember how the fragrance of the steaming banana leaves gently perfumed the house and how I couldn't wait to get my sticky little hands on one. Thanks for reminding me of something so sweet.Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16214868698905207283noreply@blogger.com
