Rice

This lady is using the rice husks as fuel to heat the aluminum pan in front of her.  She's making transparent rice paper which is used to make spring rolls.

Here you can see one of the finished rice sheets, which she'll dape over the basket on the left.  You can see the previous one hanging there.  Later they're transferred to a large, flat basket and put in the sun to dry.

Another well loved rice product.  Rice alcohol!  Hans is enjoying a free sample and behind him is the still where they make it.  The finished product drips through the blue funnel, into a bottle and down your throat.

Here they're puffing the rice.  The black stuff in the bottom of the pan is sand, which has been 'cooked' until it's black and very hot.  The entire rice kernel, still in its husk, goes in here.  As it comes into contact with the hot black sand, it pops like popcorn and turns into the puffy white product you see.  Then it's poured into a sieve and the sand falls back into the pan.  then they mix it with sugar or some other substance and press it into those disgusting rice cakes with which all dieters are familiar.
