What I found is that sometimes #Vietnamese dishes can be too fishy or oily. However, I can substitute fish oil or fish sauce with soy sauce and add peanuts instead of dried fish floss(Chà Bông Cá). That way, they all become my favorite!

[19:44] Twee culinaire ‘bijbels’ uitgelicht: een kijkje in de Vietnamese keuken en een blik in de wereld van specerijen uit India

Van de Vietnamese keuken tot de wereld van de specerijen, in twee culinaire ‘bijbels’ worden de lezers langs gerechten gevoerd die steeds vaker op ons bord verschijnen. Gevulde noedelsoep of een pittige curry zonder kerrie, de schrijfsters vieren hun culinaire herkomst. Een dubbelinterview.

餅㵢
身㛪辰𤽸分㛪𧷺，
𠤩浽𠀧沉買渃𡽫。
硍湼默油𢬣几揑，
𦓡㛪刎𡨹𬌓𢚸𣘈。

Bánh Trôi
Thân em thời trắng phận em tròn,
Bảy nổi ba chìm mấy nước non.
Rắn nát mặc dầu tay kẻ nặn,
Nhưng em vẫn giữ tấm lòng son.

Bánh Trôi (Floating Cake)
My body is white; my fate, softly rounded,
rising and sinking like mountains in streams.
Whatever way hands may shape me,
at center my heart is red and true.

餅㵢（一種越南甜點，形似湯圓）
我身潔白而圓潤，
七沉三浮歷山川。
柔軟堅實任人捏，
我心依舊赤誠存。

#Vietnamese #doctor Tran Thi Hien has made significant strides in developing a #CancerTreatment derived from #BreastMilk.

Early trials on bladder #cancer patients have shown promising results & the next phase of testing will focus on colorectal cancer patients.

With my renewal effort to expand my non-English follows on Mastodon, I got reminded of "惑星": #Japanese way to describe Planet. Apparently it means "wandering stars" as we know the trajectory of planets is not so regular. But in #Chinese 惑 has a meaning of attractive, so since my youth I always feel that is rather romantic way to think about planet: an attractive star! Wondering what are the other #Hanzi language word for planet? eg #Korean and #Vietnamese ?

I’m going to a photography workshop in November in Hanoi in northern Vietnam, and I’ve never really been to a country where I don’t speak or at least understand the language. I’m gonna take up the challenge to become semi fluent until then. Does someone here have experience with becoming fluent in a tonal language coming from English/french/german?

I am following the path laid out in “fluent forever” (focus on sound, pronunciation, don’t translate, SRS).

Further, any links about contemporary art, culture, tech scene in Hanoi (or Vietnam in general) much appreciated.

#Vietnamese

I'm posting about Teochew & Vietnamese revolutionaries this week. I wasn't taught anything about the heroes & heroines from both of my cultural backgrounds because I grew up in Canada, with white colonial education. My mind was heavily colonized by that. I started the decolonization of my mind journey in the 90s & am going to be doing it for rest of my life because the colonial programming runs deep.

I want people to learn more about the brave #Chinese & #Vietnamese people who took many risks & sacrificed a lot for their peoples. I want people to learn that my peoples & our ancestors, from both my backgrounds, weren't uneducated savages & we didn't need to be controlled by colonizers or imperialists. Many of our ancestors & their comrades were strong revolutionaries, who were very intelligent, dignified & courageous.

Lê Đức Thọ (14 October 1911 – 13 October 1990), was a #Vietnamese #revolutionary general, diplomat & politician. Tho was the first #Asian to be awarded the #NobelPeacePrize, jointly with US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger in 1973, for their work on Paris Peace Accords, but refused the award.

"However, since the signing of the Paris agreement, the United States and the Saigon administration continue in grave violation of a number of key clauses of this agreement. The Saigon administration, aided and encouraged by the United States, continues its acts of war. Peace has not yet really been established in South Vietnam. In these circumstances it is impossible for me to accept the 1973 Nobel Prize for Peace which the committee has bestowed on me. Once the Paris accord on Vietnam is respected, the arms are silenced and a real peace is established in South Vietnam, I will be able to consider accepting this prize. With my thanks to the Nobel Prize Committee please accept, madame, my sincere respects."

"Unfortunately, the Nobel Peace Prize Committee put the aggressor and the victim of aggression on the same par. ... That was a blunder. The Nobel Peace Prize is one of the greatest prizes in the world. But the United States conducted a war of aggression against Vietnam. It is we, the Vietnamese people, who made peace by defeating the American war of aggression against us, by regaining our independence and freedom."
