Tet is a national and family festival. It is an occasion for every Vietnamese to have a good time while thinking about the last year and the next year. At Tet, spring fairs are organized, streets and public buildings are brightly decorated and almost all shops are crowded with people shopping for Tet. At home, every is tidied, special food is cooked, offerings of food, fresh water, flowers and betel are made on the family altar with burning joss- sticks scenting the air. First-footing is made when the lucky visitor comes and children are given lucky money wrapped in a red tiny envelope. Tet is also a time for peace and love. During Tet, children often behave well and friends, relatives and neighbors give each other best wishes for the new year.

Everyone's family eagerly welcomes Tet. Before going to the New Year, about a week, they go to prepare things like candies, peach branches, melon seeds, meat in coconut milk, melon, bitter melon, meat, cake dist, and kumquat. On the night of the 29th New Year, people poured into the street to buy apricot trees. People hustle each other and people push each other to make the market more bustling. The first job is to decorate the house and take care of apricot trees. The second job is to prepare to go shopping for things necessary to celebrate the New Year. The third task is to prepare the dishes for the New Year. The fourth job is to prepare banh chung for Tet The steps to make banh chung are: Step 1: Before making banh chung, you will have to conduct the soaking sticky rice first. Ideally, you should soak overnight, or at least 4 hours. You should also soak sticky sticky leaves with galangal or pineapple leaves to make green sticky, and also help more fragrant sticky. Unripe mung beans should also be soaked for 4 hours or left overnight. Step 2: After the sticky rice has been soaked, pour it into the basket and let it drain. Sprinkle 1 to 2 tablespoons of salt in and mix with your fingers. Green beans do the same thing, you pour the beans out and mix with salt and pepper. Next, you marinate the meat with salt, pepper and sugar. Step 3: To make the cake square and more beautiful, you should prepare yourself a square frame to make the mold. Next, you line 4 leaves. Arrange the leaves by folding the bottom edge, folding the left edge to create a crease for the leaves Conduct the same operation for the remaining 3 pieces of leaves. Then put 4 leaves under the mold and then glutinous. You spread evenly in the 4 corners of the mold and concave in the middle. Put the green beans in there and then the meat and then the green beans again. Next, you spread sticky rice on the cover, try to make the amount of sticky and green beans above and below evenly. Finally, wrap the cake and tie it with a string. You should also remember not to tie too tight because in the process of cooking in the pot will expand. Step 4: Put the cake into a large pot and fill it with water. The time to boil a small cake is about 5 hours, with a large cake will take more time. If using a pressure cooker, your boiling time will be shortened to only 1 hour. You also need to prepare a pot of boiling water, so that when the water in the pot is boiled dry, add water in time. When boiling the bread for half the time, return to the cake, change the water. If the loaf will be alive, unevenly cooked, take out the bread and take it out immediately for 20 minutes in a pot of cold water. Then drain the cake and then use a heavy object to press the cake to squeeze out the water, helping the banh chung do not become dough and preserve for longer. Squeeze for 5 - 8 hours. When the baking is done, you can store it in the fridge of the fridge. When a guest comes, just put the cake in the microwave to use it again Surely that is enough to taste New Year's Eve and make the family more cozy together
P/S : Good Luck
