Quang Ngai has first Heritage Tree

[rian88]

A 220 year old Thi (diospyros decandra) tree in the central province of Quang Ngai has been recognised as a Heritage Tree, the first in the province.

The recognition was made by the Vietnam Association for Conservation of Nature and Environment.

The 25-m tree stands at the site of the Le family’s ancestral temple in Hanh Phuoc commune, Nghia Hanh district. According to Le family records, it was planted by Le Phu Tri, a mandarin of the Tay Son Dynasty when he chose the area to settle down after the victory of King Quang Trung over the Qing invaders.

The Le family temple is listed by the province as a provincial-level cultural and historic relic.

Canh Chua Ca is a nice combination of vegetables, fish along with a vegetable or fruit to produce the soup’s sour taste. In the South, tamarind fruit and pineapple are the favored ingredients. The word sour and fish doesn't sound too appetizing together does it? But don't let that hinder you from trying out this delicious soup. Canh Chua Ca is a sour soup produce by fresh vegetables and one key ingredient tamarind. Whole tamarind pulp, pineapple, and tomatoes are used to produce sourness to the soup. Okra, bean sprouts, and a strange stalk called elephant ear (bac ha) is also unique to this recipe. It actually tastes heavenly when the weather is hot. It has the perfect blend of sweet, sour and spice, with more than three types of fresh herbs which really enhance the flavor.
