There are four distinct seasons in the south of the Yangtze River. The continuous spring rain reminds me that everything is waking up. Soon after the rain, it will be summer. I want to eat black rice. So I used the maple leaves bought in Guangxi earlier to make these two bowls of black rice in the South of the Yangtze River. Jiangnan is a very ancient food. The people of Song Dynasty have nine steamed and nine sun dried green rice. This is the prototype of Jiangnan black rice. Qingjing tree is the southern candle tree for making black rice. But now people use a simpler dyeing method. Is it the essence of simple and informal rural food spread to this day. I have seen black rice in Hangzhou, Suzhou, Jiashan, Nanjing, Xiangshan and other places. It is fragrant, soft and glutinous. I have also eaten the black rice made by Guangxi Zhuang people's friends with maple branches and leaves. It's very fragrant and delicious. It is the custom of Zhuang people to eat black rice on March 3. Jiangnan also eats it in summer. There are salty black rice with spring shoots and green beans, and sweet black rice with sweet osmanthus and white sugar. It's not comfortable to eat a bowl. Tips - dry fried maple leaf is to speed up the production of black juice. Hand rubbing maple leaf can make it darker
