allamande Posted May 6, 2009 Share #3 Posted May 6, 2009 Very nice postcards from a very eclectic market! I particularly like the colors and textures in the last one (along with OOF contrast). Ece Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Hiles Posted May 7, 2009 Share #4 Posted May 7, 2009 Henri, These are very fine, in particularly #1. The placement of the hats in the space is very well done. Cheers, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Henry Posted May 7, 2009 Author Share #6 Posted May 7, 2009 Thank you Werner,Ece,Michael and Underground for taking time to comment. @ Ece :yes,you are right and I think that the color is better that the black and white in that case.Tropical fruits are so nice and so varied @ Michael, yes effectively the typical conical hats of Vietnam bring a signature to the photo taken in Vietnam. Thanks to have noticed it Another photo showing the bargaining of the Vietnamese of this vegetable that they like,belonging to the family of zucchinis but very bitter !

Sandokan Posted May 7, 2009 Share #9 Posted May 7, 2009 Another photo showing the bargaining of the Vietnamese of this vegetable that they like,belonging to the family of zucchinis but very bitter ! Their english name is bitter gourd, but they are very good for the kidneys. In Punjabi we call them "keraela". Scrape off the knobbly bits of two the size in the photo and chop into slices about 1cm thick. Sprinkle with lots of salt and leave for 90mins. Squeeze juice of one lemon over all. After 10 more mins, squeeze as much juice out. Fry up some onions in lots of sunflower oil. Add one eigth teaspoon of turmeric powder & a quarter spoon of each coriander and cummin powder. Add the kerala and fry up. Keep stirring and it should all be cooked after about 15mins. Another recipe has these chopped very small & stuffed into baby aubergines.

stuny Posted May 7, 2009 Share #11 Posted May 7, 2009 Henri - Excellent series. We learned in Ho Chi Minh City that the Vietnamese always buy live poultry, and the Chinese ex-pats tend to buy poultry already slaughtered. We heard this from several Vietnamese, all of whom said it with a bit of derision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great thanks Stuart for your very nice comments and to remind that in Vietnam there is a bird flu Yes the poultry is always on alive sale in markets in Vietnam. The transport is regulated on the other hand. The villagers who bring the poultry live in villages situated just close. We can also find of the brought down poultry, but in supermarket kept for the cold. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
