Square cake (Banh Chung) is one of the most popular and tasty traditional Vietnamese food.
It is an essential part of Vietnamese cuisine and culture. Vietnamese people never forget to make
or buy some Square cakes in the Tet Holidays and King Hung's anniversary. They believe that it is
the best way to show gratitude to their ancestors and homeland. People place Square cakes in
the family altars so as to honor the ancestors and pray them to support the family in the new year.
Almost all Vietnamese children know about the legend and origin of this traditional dish. This
cake was invented by the 18th Prince of Hung Emperor. 3,000-4,000 years ago, Prince Lang Lieu,
made round and square cakes and brought them to the King. He explained the meaning of the
cakes to his father: the round cake was the symbol of the sky and the Square cake was the symbol
of the Earth. In the old belief of Vietnamese people, the Earth is square, so this cake's shape is
square, too. Because of the special meaning and delicious taste of the cakes, Lang Lieu became
the next Emperor. Since then, in honor of this 18th Prince, Vietnamese people always make and
have Square cake in the Lunar New Year. It has become the soul of Vietnamese New Year.
