Traditional food eaten by Gaoshan people at harvest festival.
Festivals, rituals, sacrifices and eating customs: Gaoshan people are generous and hospitable. I like to hold banquets and song and dance parties on festivals or festive days. Every festival, pigs and old cows should be slaughtered, and a banquet should be given to give wine. At the end of the year, Bunun people used the leaves of a plant that ate "Sinoe" and steamed them in glutinous rice for their families to enjoy, to celebrate. The most representative foods of Gaoshan banquet guests are cakes and bazan made of various glutinous rice. It can be used not only as a holiday snack, but also as a sacrifice. And cooked glutinous rice to entertain guests. There are many sacrificial activities of Gaoshan people, including ancestor worship, valley worship, mountain worship, hunting worship, wedding worship and harvest worship, among which Paiwan people's five-year sacrifice is the most grand. At that time, besides banquet offerings, there will be various cultural and sports activities. Wedding and banquet scenes are very rich and spectacular, especially a lot of wine should be prepared. At that time, participants drank a lot of alcohol and had the custom of staying drunk. On the day of "Harvest Festival", the clansmen took an altar of wine to the scene, danced around the bonfire, ate and drank, and celebrated the annual labor harvest. People in paiwan often use wooden and beautifully carved mugs on celebration days, and they drink side by side to show their intimacy. If you have guests, you must kill the chicken and treat them. Bunun people leave drumsticks when entertaining guests, and they walk with them when they leave, which means eating drumsticks makes them walk more powerfully. Lu Kairen is good at baking taro with stones as stoves. Baked taro is crisp outside and soft inside, which is easy to carry and often brought to guests to eat on the road. When paiwan got married, he ground the millet into powder, mixed it with water to make a paste, wrapped it in fish and shrimp (the shrimp showed its tail), kneaded it into balls the size of eggs, put it in a boiling pot, cooked it and took it out.
