Maybe in your impression, you must have chopsticks or spoons when you eat, otherwise, how can you eat something? However, in Lisu culture, grabbing food without chopsticks is the highest etiquette for entertaining guests. When important guests come, Lisu people try their best to collect all the delicious food in their homes, so that the guests can eat satisfactorily.

Hand-grabbed rice is cooked (steamed) by mixing rice with cereal sand, or bean rice and buckwheat rice, and placed on a dustpan, covered with roast suckling pig meat, chicken pieces, eggs, bacon, bamboo leaf vegetables, mushrooms, fungus, peanuts, cold wild vegetables, potato, towel gourd and other meats and vegetables.

In the center of an authentic Lisu farmhouse meal is the main course-pig's head, pig's tongue and roast chicken. The most distinctive Lisu hand-grabbed rice steps are as follows:

First, the main course-pig's face should be put into the distinguished guest's rice basket first

Second, everyone's rice basket must have pork head slices for hand-grabbed rice.

Third, first rub the pig's head slices in the palm repeatedly to make the palm oily.

Fourth, grab the rice and put it in the palm of your hand. The rice should be moderate, so that you can't see the rice after holding it.

Five, according to personal preferences, choose materials from various dishes on the table. First pinch some fried green peppers, then take a pickled radish, and then put some duck egg yolk. After holding it, hold it tightly and eat it in your mouth. It's delicious.

Enthusiastic Lisu girls will sing songs to propose a toast to the guests.

After dinner, the Lisu girl started and invited the guests to the center of the hall for group dance. The host and guest jumped up around the stove.
