When it comes to where to go and what to eat in a totally new place, I tend to rely on Google. So, after checking-in at an eco-friendly retreat in the Pu Luong Nature Reserve in north-central Thanh Hoa province last week, I began to look for some local food nearby.
People in the imperial capital of Hue are very good at cooking so they have many recipes to create unique and delicious dishes using salt with cereals, vegetables, meat and fish. One of these delicacies is rice served with salt.
The meat is marinated with several spices including the ‘mac khen’ pepper, wrapped in layers of ‘dong’ leaves and grilled on a charcoal stove or placed inside wooden embers of a stove.
