The food is not just only satisfying their hunger and not only just as a shaker tongue, and not only eligible for nutrition, but more interesting ist to eat the food with know about the background or philosophy of the food and taste more delicious, if we can cook it byself.
The rice cone, especially yellow one, has a distinctive shape and meaning. In each serving of yellow rice cone made conical and surrounded by side dishes (likes fried chicken, egg, spring rolls, vegetables) in the bottom of rice. Usually during the celebration, along with cutting the top end rice cone and given to a loved one. Considered as a whole rice cone gratitude to God for the blessings and his grace. And after the cut top ends can be eaten together.
Side dishes are a variety of meaningful expression of gratitude to God for giving diverse human life to be thankful for. As a base of rice cone and side dishes is usually used banana leaves as a symbol of God’s power over the universe. Fried chicken dish symbolizes prosperity or also can be a symbol of a lasting marriage. Sping rolls with shape and color similar to gold bars, is expected to bring prosperity. Assorted colorful vegetables provide a variety of life to be thankful for.
To make this yellow rice cone is very special for me because it takes long time to prepare and to cook. I cook it only at certain times of special events such as birthdays and anniversaries.
