Banh Tet La Cam:Can Tho的紫色Tet圆柱粽

Can Tho的“banh tet la cam”是一种用类似斑斓叶的la cam染成深紫色的糯米粽——这是湄公河三角洲对经典Tet(春节)主食的独特创新。

    Can Tho制作的一种“banh tet”常常让人咬下一口后忍不住停下来端详:它的糯米是紫色的。这并非食用色素染出的紫,而是一种深邃、天然的紫罗兰色,源自一种大多数游客从未听说过的植物叶子。它的味道也与众不同,带着一种微妙的层次感,在品尝之前非常值得了解一番。

    La Cam叶究竟有何妙用

    这种颜色来自“la cam”(红丝线/紫蓝草),这是一种在越南南部(베트남 / 越南 / ベトナム)的花园和市场中常见的小叶植物。当地人将叶子煮沸,在烹饪前将糯米浸泡在提取出的汁液中。这样煮出来的糯米会呈现出引人注目的蓝紫色调,并且随着粽子的熬煮,颜色会变得更深。它不像斑斓叶那样是一种强烈的调味剂——它对味道的贡献很温和,略带草本气息,背景中有一丝淡淡的泥土芬芳——但它能将原本普通的白色糯米粽,变成真正配得上Tet节日餐桌的精美食品。

    在越南传统医学中,la cam还具有温和的清热功效,这也是湄公河三角洲老一辈人将其与节日食品而非日常烹饪联系在一起的原因之一。

    馅料:绿豆与五花肉

    抛开颜色不谈,它的结构是经典的南部banh tet(뗏 (베트남 설날) / 越南春节 / テト (ベトナム旧正月)):圆柱形的糯米卷,中心包裹着去皮黄绿豆沙和厚厚的五花肉片。绿豆层煮得软糯,略带甜味。五花肉——最理想的状态是肥瘦相间——在包入之前,会用鱼露、糖和黑胡椒进行腌制。

    整个粽子用芭蕉叶紧紧包裹,煮上四到六个小时。切开时,横截面应该呈现出清晰的同心圆:外层是紫色的糯米,中间是淡黄色的绿豆,最中心是五花肉。切得好的一片会紧实不散。如果切开时散架了——通常是因为包得不够紧或者煮的时间不够——那就是不合格的。

    在Can Tho(껀터 / 芹苴 / カントー),有些摊贩会在馅料中加入咸蛋黄,使其口感更丰富、更咸香。虽然值得一试,但纯粹的绿豆五花肉版本才是最标准的经典口味。

    南北之争:圆柱形与方形

    如果你在Hanoi待过,你就会知道“banh chung”——这是北方的Tet粽子,呈方形,用柊叶包裹,承载着不同的文化分量(在越南的宇宙观中,方形代表大地)。南方的banh tet则是圆柱形的,用芭蕉叶包裹,通常更长更细。核心逻辑是一样的——糯米、绿豆、猪肉——但形状、包裹的叶子和比例却大不相同。

    两者都不是彼此的衍生品。它们是平行发展的,越南家庭往往对自己认为“正宗”的那一种有着不动声色的坚持。在Can Tho,人们吃的是banh tet。而la cam版本更是当地人引以为傲的地方特色。

    Tet期间最佳,全年皆有售

    销售旺季是Tet(一月下旬或二月,取决于农历)前夕的两到三周。家家户户都会自己动手制作——在熬煮前一晚举办包粽子聚会在三角洲地区依然很常见——市场上也挤满了按整条或切片出售的摊贩。在此期间,la cam版本随处可见:菜市场、路边摊、寺庙外都能买到。

    在一年中的其他时间寻找它需要花点心思,但在Can Tho并不算难。

    在Can Tho去哪买

    Cai Rang水上市场(市中心以南约6 km处)在清晨(大约早上5:30至8:00)会有摊贩在船上售卖包好的粽子。这里的banh tet通常是纯白糯米的,而不是la cam,但值得问一问——有几条船会卖紫色版本的。价格大约在每片15,000–25,000 VND。

    Xuan Khanh市场(Ninh Kieu区)有一群可靠的干货和特产摊位,全年供应la cam banh tet,整条出售,价格根据大小在50,000–80,000 VND之间。Mau Than街入口附近的摊贩通常货源最稳定。

    沿河的Ninh Kieu夜市对于错过早市的游客来说是一个不错的备选。质量参差不齐——这里卖的一些是批量生产的,糯米可能会发粘——但你通常可以花20,000 VND买到一片还不错的,同时还能品尝到其他三角洲特产。

    如果想买一整条带回家,Ninh Kieu区Hai Ba Trung街上的特产食品店会提供适合旅行的真空包装。它们在室温下可保存两到三天,冷藏则能保存更久。

    如何食用

    从冰箱里拿出来冷切的banh tet la cam口感紧实且有嚼劲。室温下食用口感更好——糯米会稍微变软,五花肉的脂肪也不会那么凝固。有些人会用少许油将厚片煎至外表酥脆,这确实非常美味,如果你是在家里吃而不是在市场摊位上,绝对值得一试。

    这是一种饱腹感很强的食物。吃上一两片就抵得上一顿饭了。

    实用提示

    Can Tho距离Saigon约170 km——乘坐巴士需要三个小时,开车则需要两个半小时。la cam版本是三角洲地区特有的,在Saigon或更北的地方很难稳定买到,所以如果你在Tet期间身处该地区,绝对值得去寻找一番。在节日之外的时间,如果你专程前往,请提前致电Xuan Khanh市场的摊贩——淡季时的供货可能会不太稳定。
