How a Traditional Vietnamese Lunar New Year Cake Is Made by Hand | 4K
Discover how one of Vietnam’s oldest traditional cakes is made — by hand, step by step.
In this real-life Vietnam behind-the-scenes, we visit a small family-run workshop where bánh chưng is made the old-fashioned way: washing sticky rice, prepping mung beans and pork, wrapping each cake by hand, and simmering huge pots for hours before the best part — unwrapping, slicing, and tasting.
Bánh chưng is especially meaningful during Tết — Vietnam’s Lunar New Year. It’s one of the most essential holiday foods, often made in large batches and shared with family, neighbors, and guests as part of New Year celebrations.
