Steamed Pork Ribs with Black Millet

Some time ago, I learned about a cooking method for pork ribs from a friend. Since everyone in my family likes to eat pork ribs, I tried to make it. It turned out to be a delicacy that is loved by the elderly and children in the family!

Yunnan traditional rice dumplings

Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, and many rice dumplings are made of bamboo leaves. However, in my childhood memory, our rice dumpling shells were always made of palm leaves. They are exquisitely shaped and the fresh smell of the palm leaves can completely infect the glutinous rice inside. Yunnan's palm trees account for 80% of the country's total. Therefore, people in many places in Yunnan have made full use of palm tree resources since ancient times. During the Dragon Boat Festival, they collect fresh, green palm leaves and weave them into exquisite rice dumpling shells. A leaf that was originally flat can turn into a small three-dimensional shell in the hand. I have to admire the wisdom left by our ancestors in weaving.
