Description:Translation (Dau Hkawng) We, the Kachin people, have been using this fermented rice wine and liquor since ancient times. In the process of making this fermented rice wine and liquor, they used superior-quality homemade yeast. During this making yeast process, look for two or three kinds of medicinal plants that grow in the forest. It had to be collected. Pounded the rice flour and mixed it with the rice flour and medicinal leaves. They made it by pounding it out. The waffle people and arrant nonsense cannot make yeast. Only knowledgeable grandmothers and mothers made it. They made yeast with great respect and precision. And also, yeast cannot make it with a lot of people. Because yeast is highly valued, when making yeast, they also had to abstain from food, and also, visitors are not accepted. They made yeast by abstaining from food. So, only two people consulted and made yeast because they are worried that one person can avoid food but the other person cannot. With that, they made yeast done in that way. After all, mixed it with the same amount of water. After making it into circle plates, they made it to their liking, big or small. They could make it the size as much as they want and made it as big as they like. The yeast plates are also classified and named as male or female. Also, they pressed the finger on the yeast plates and defined the small hole as a navel. So, four days after the yeasts were being made, they said it was time to do the yeast harvesting called "Matsi hta ai." That's what they made. And when the yeasts were mature, the yeasts used in brewing, and when making yeasts, only two people made it. But when the yeasts can be brewed and matured, it is shared with the brewing neighbours in the village. No matter who makes the yeast, do not sell it. It was shared by the maker and used in brewing. And yeast had long been used and made in this way with medicinal herbs and rice by themselves. They made fermented rice and liquor with handmade yeast and drank it, and they never got any harm to the body. Because made with this good quality yeast, people who drank that liquor also used it as a medicine, not as an overdose. In the past, people used to drink liquor and fermented wine. There was no such thing as a drug overdose like today. And then, when they eat the fermented rice called "Tsa pa." When they work, they gained strength. That's all I'm telling about that is how they made and used such superior-quality homemade yeasts. Thank you.
