Dong Nai sets record for largest cashew puffed sticky rice in Vietnam

According to the Dong Nai Province Chefs Association, the cashew puffed sticky rice dish is made from glutinous rice, cashew nuts, sugar, etc. by the Association's chefs. After processing, the cashew puffed sticky rice has a golden, crispy crust but inside still retains the softness, aroma of sticky rice and the rich taste of cashew nuts.

Mr. Nguyen Van Thinh, a member of the Dong Nai Province Chefs Association, said that the fried cashew sticky rice set a record as the largest in Vietnam with a diameter of 68 cm, a height of 39 cm, and a circumference of 215 cm. This is an effort by the chefs in the Association to not only create a dish with a strong hometown flavor but also contribute to promoting the cashew specialty of Dong Nai - one of the largest cashew growing and processing regions in the country.

According to VNA, speaking at the ceremony, Ms. Nguyen Thi Quynh Ngoc - Deputy Director of the Vietnam Records Institute, General Secretary of the Vietnam Records Organization - said that the characteristics of this record not only lie in its impressive size, but also in the unique blend of Dong Nai's traditional culinary quintessence and the famous specialty ingredient - Binh Phuoc cashew nuts.
