Residing in the mountainous areas of southwest China, the Miao ethnic group are well known for their handmade silver jewels like silver necklaces. During big holidays, women dress up with large and heavy silver jewels from head to toe to proudly display their beauty. Holidays are also a good time for people to get together with friends and family to enjoy a big meal. Food displayed on their table is different from that in any other areas of China. Here are recipes for just a few:

Glutinous rice paste

Glutinous rice paste is served in Miao areas all year round. To the single people, glutinous rice is important, as it’s always used as a gift between lovers. During the lunar December, Miao girls will busy themselves preparing all kinds of glutinous rice paste: triangular, quadrate, prolate, and round. Some rice paste is dyed with bright colors and looks quite appealing. In the Lusheng Musical Festival held in the next lunar January, single young people busy themselves singing, dancing, and looking for life partners. Girls with beautiful silver necklaces look especially attractive. If a girl loves a man, she will toss the glutinous rice paste into the man’s belt bag. If the man also likes the girl, he would keep the paste. When the man visit the girl’s family after January, he will bring with him some sugar and paste as a gift.

Glutinous rice

Glutinous rice is the staple food for the Miao people. During the famous Sister Festival, women use special plant leaves to dye the rice. The dyed rice has 5 different colors, and taste delicious and sweet. It’s a perfect gift to give the man who steals her heart.

Special holidays for food

The Miao have lots of holidays that are related to food. During duck festival, people cook a special porridge using duck and rice. During the New Food Festival held in lunar June, people only cook newly picked rice, vegetables, and fresh fish.
