traditional dish of many ethnic minorities in the 
northern mountainous regions. People call the dish five-
coloured sticky rice because it has five colours: red, 
yellow, green, purple and white. The things that create 
the colours are not chemicals but natural roots and 
leaves. The five colours of the dish represent five 
elements of life according to Vietnamese beliefs: yellow is 
earth, red is fire, green is plants, white is metal, and 
purple or black is water. People believe that these five 
elements create harmony between heaven and earth. 
Five-coloured sticky rice is usually made and enjoyed at 
Tet, in festivals and ceremonies, on special occasions, and 
whenever the family has guests. Writing: How to make yellow sticky rice
