An elderly woman sells "dyed rice" by the roadside, 10 yuan a bowl, why are there more onlookers than buyers!

Rice is one of the ingredients we see most often, and most rice is white, but have you ever seen colorful rice? Of course, this colorful rice is not grown that way, it is dyed. So some friends can't help asking, is this dyed rice safe? In fact, these colorful rices all use natural pigments, and all of them are edible. Of course, this kind of food is not something you can eat or see often, so most people who see it are just curious, which is why there are more onlookers than buyers.

This kind of dyed rice is in fact a custom of some ethnic minorities celebrating the harvest, and gradually this custom became a local specialty. They call this rice "flower rice", and flower rice is the exclusive specialty of the Bouyei people. People dye the rice in bright colors and a riot of hues, giving plain white rice a new mood and a touch of poetic charm, and this technique of dyeing rice is, at present, something only the Bouyei people can do.

If you have been to the Bouyei people and seen flower rice, you must not miss it. There is no need to worry about whether the ingredients used to dye it are safe. You should know that the production process of flower rice is very complex. These edible colorants are all boiled out of the plants themselves in colors such as red, yellow, blue, orange and purple. Faced with such brightly colored and delicious food, even if you are full of food and drink, you cannot resist taking a few bites. As for how much a portion sells for, 10 yuan is neither much nor little, and it has long exceeded the value of the food itself. As for the "flower rice" seen in other places, there is really no guarantee whether coloring has been added, so no wonder that when faced with the sudden appearance of "flower rice", many people only look and do not buy.

Do not worry at all, the Bouyei people's five-color flower rice is absolutely genuine pollution-free green food. All the colorants are boiled from plants, not only harmless to the body, but also containing a large amount of elements the body needs, so you can taste it with complete peace of mind. If you cannot get your wish, rest assured, the five-color flower rice has been successfully made into boxed food, so you can just buy a few boxes openly, and after going home, enjoy it slowly with your wife and children, relatives and friends.
