My Childhood Favorites: Ncuav Txuam Puab (Sticky Rice in Banana Leaf) w/Grandma

- Hello Foodie!
Here is another childhood favorite of mine called ncuav txuam puab which is basically just sticky rice wrapped in banana leaf. Yes, it's basically just sticky rice cooked inside a banana leaf. Super simple but very nostalgic and has a special place in my heart. Today, I'm having my grandma over to show you all how to make it (the tiny versions). I grew up eating these with my grandparents since they love eating it a lot. During those days we would eat it with a sweet chili flake and fish sauce dip. Sound weird? Not at all! :) These small sticky rice snacks are great on road trips, camping, or just as is. They are also great with beef jerky. So give it a try and let me know what you like to eat it with if you've ever had it. And yes! I'll be speaking Hmoob Leeg in this video since I'm with my Grams.
So turn on subtitles for English translation. Hope you all enjoy.
And Happy Father's day to all the amazing Fathers out there. :)
This was one of my Grandpas favorite snack to eat. Love and miss you Gramps.

NOTE:
-These are not the banana filled sticky rice version. Those are made differently. It also contains sugar and coconut milk. And yes, I'll share with you all how to make those in the future.
- You can add salt to the water to make the rice salty but we like it pretty basic as is.
-The bigger the rice wraps, the longer it will take to cook. Twice the amount of time.
-You can use store bought banana leaf, but make sure to wash them well and let it sit in the sun to soften them a bit or but it over a flame for a few secs to make them more flexible to work with. It will be a little harder to work with store bough banana leaf unless you find younger/tender banana leafs.
SORRY for the TYPO in my video. Unwine means Untwine! I forgot the T :) My bad

INGREDIENTS
15-20 banana leaf cut into 6x6 or 7x7 (the bigger, the longer the rice wrap)

4-6 quarts of water or enough to cover all the wraps ( with at least 2 inches overhead to throughly cook the rice)
Strings or cooking twine (we untwine a rice to use it as the strings)
--PEPPER DIP--
1/4 to 1/2 tsp dried Thai chili flakes (add less or more)
1 tsp sugar (add less or more)
1 Tbsp fish sauce

My name is Cindy Her and I have been cooking and baking for quite a long time now! Hmong food culture and tradition is dear to my heart and I wanted to keep our roots intact somewhere. So this is why I started this channel to keep me and you connected to the Hmong culture. I hope you all learn a little bit about the Hmong food culture and try out these recipes! As always, happy cooking :)

I love your videos! I just found you recently and I instantly subbed. Idk why... is it because there's not a lot of Hmong leeg or if we're just not as vocal lol but I get excited everytime I find a Hmong leeg social media artist to follow 😊

I like this video with grandma and your fresh banana leaf. Where are you from?
More videos with grandma please! She reminds me of my grandma ❤️
yeah i think this is almost all of favorite thing when we were young. I think i like it steam better. boil is too sticky like nplaum2 nkos2. so i prefer steam.
You should do a live ask me question video lol.
Love your sesame ball video. 🎥. Pepper dip...never try it. I rather do honey dip. 🍯.
Ncuav txawj puab no ma.ntxim gab ua luaj li
I have a question, how do you go about adding bits of ground meat with it?
Hi! Do u know what that ribbon looking like string that u can strip into pieces called? I love sticky rice any which way my fav is rice with coconut milk & sugar thanks❤️
If you don't have a rice bag to peel off for the string just buy any cooking twine. They will work fine.
Haj, haj, remind lots people.
I miss my Puj. It's almost been 5 years since she passed. Seeing your grandma makes me miss mine so much.
Interesting never eat it with pepper before!
YEAH

How long you cook the rice in the banana leafs?
Nej nyob lub teb chaw twg OS
Oh never ate with the pepper sauce before .
For how long did you soak the rice prior to wrapping?
No soaking. Use it dry as is.
Where ware you and why you can have banana leafs?
Where do you live mi ntxhais.? II saw banana in your back yard.
U so pretty too girl..i love the way u talk,
Me me txhaj le qaab, meb ua ncuav txaum puab tsuag los?
Sister, can i use frozen banana leaf ? I cant access fresh ones at the store? Any alternative for the string?
Frozen will work. Just make sure to rinse it well and either let the sun soften it or put it over a flame for a few seconds each side. Use any cooking twine instead for the string
CHawjCreations you can soak them in hot water while they're still frozen to soften them too.
Do you need to soak the rice overnight?
No soaking. Just wrap as is, dry.
Suman!
Yog hastas kuv nyob nrug meb, kuv xaav qha meb ua ib qho zoo zog ko ntxiv.
Yog NCUAV TXAUMPUAB.
You are definitely wife material! I’ve moved far away from my side of the family, definitely missed talking in green dialect.
Humm miam miam... kuv niam tuag lawm tsis muaj leej twg ua rau kuv noj lawm.. snifff...
Which banana leave tastes better to you? The store bought or the fresh leaves?
Fresh always

These look like Korean rice cakes!! It is essentially the same concept except Koreans add sugar to the rice before steaming. :)

Hey, you spell your food wrong. Ask your grand ma for the real name again and see how you spell it.
