    Hihi cơm tấm chúng ta ăn hiện nay không còn thuần là cơm tấm nữa.
    Khoảng 20 năm trước công nghệ chế biến gạo còn thô sơ nên làm gãy hạt tấm ở đầu của hạt gạo (các bạn quan sát đầu hạt gạo bị lõm vào là hạt đó bị gãy hạt tấm rồi).
    Người ta thu phần hạt đó làm cơm tấm, giá rất cao bởi mọi dinh dưỡng của hạt gạo tập trung vào hạt tấm đó cho nên cơm tấm lúc đó rất ngon.
    Gạo tấm bây giờ đa số là hạt gạo bể làm đôi

    • @tuhai799
      @tuhai799 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Giờ người muốn gạo bao nhiêu % tấm thì chỉ cần điều chỉnh máy thôi. Một số vùng còn giống lúa 60 ngày hạt nhỏ nấu cơm thì tuyệt cú mèo( giống này không năng suất nên ít người trồng) hay lúa ba Chăm của người Ba Na nấu cơm lên nó cũng như cơm tấm ngày xưa bạn nói đó.

You have mastered the nasal tonal part and the understanding very well. Thanks for the ride along Chris.
