    Give me this and a gigantic platter of steaming white rice and I will be in hog heaven!!! My mom used to make this (she still does, but she can't unfortunately FedEx it to me), I haven't eaten it in 4 years but it is quite an experience and I'll always look forward into sinking my teeth into these. I wish I can find banana blossoms here, I've recently discovered patas in a Chinese-owned grocery store so I think I can make this. Beautiful photo ut-man! Thank you for sharing it.

    You can use dried lily blossoms instead of banana blossoms. Pictured on the dish are DLB. And if you have time, tie a loose knot on each one. My cooked this dish, when I was young. Now I cook it.
