Traditional craft of banh hoi lives on in Phu Long

The banh hoi craft of Phu Long, in Ham Thang ward, Lam Dong province, is a long-standing rice-based handicraft known for its meticulous, fully manual process. Made from finely ground rice, banh hoi consists of delicate, thread-like strands woven into soft, airy mats. The dish itself is prized for its light texture and subtle sweetness, often served with herbs, pork or pork offal, and regional dipping sauces.
