Up to 22nd highway from Tay Ninh, 4-km from Saigon, that is Trang Bang town, the
country of special food: fresh rice paper in fog and soup cake. You can find both
of them anywhere, but nowhere make them better than Trang Bang because it is make
from special local rice.
They roasted flour into cake, a little thick. The specialty is that it is roasted
at 4-5 hour, then bring to dry under fog until it is soft, they put it in a sealed
bag. We can eat anytime without water dripping it is still flanked and soft.
Trang Bang people use this cake to eat with shrimp, meat, salad, coriander, gill,
blit, and drong. In the Tet holidays, they can use with roasted salty meat, egg and
sour mustard. The flavor of the cake with shrimp, meat, sauce, herb, chili, condiment
make you never forget.
Flour for soup cake of Trang Bang is made of rice flour, not other flour. The fiber's
size is larger than noodles. We can cook with pork, alery and carrot. In the bowl,
we put in some meat, garlic, shallot, condiment and fish sauce. It is very cool to eat
and drink this soup, and also flavor. Over hundred years, this dish is in Trang Bang
and famous so far.
