"Preservation turns memories and tastes into a diary."

The salty fragrance in the jar is a snapshot of the four season.
The laughter and song of the elders are awakened by the warm fragrance of fermented rice.
The sharing of meat by firelight embodies family bonds and blessings.

Curing, fermentation, smoking, and drying are all pens of time.
Seasons and thoughts are written down in the lexicon of the tastebud.
Preservation is how culture is sustained in everyday life, and remembered through sharing.

As the fire awakens in the Three Stone Stove, the salted mustard greens in the jar capture the passing of the seasons in their salty fragrance; corn and pickled mustard greens hung out to dry under the sun sway gently in the mountain breeze as peanuts leave their sweetness in the ashes.

Auntie recalls how children once jumped excitedly up and down to grab at the pickled mustard greens hanging from the eaves. At home, the women pickled the mustard greens they grew alongside the millet to turn them into delicious everyday dishes; in the mountains, hunters smoked their prey to reduce the weight and take the meat home to share with the tribe before it could spoil.

On the dining tables of the Uninang Community (Sunungsung), you will try your hand at pickling mustard greens. You will also join hunters on the game trail to etch the flavors of time into your memories.

Drying and pickling mustard greens to preserve their sour and salty memories

Work alongside the women in the community to learn how to make pickled mustard greens. Every step, from sun-drying and salting to placing in the jar, is imbued with the tribal wisdom of the Bunun Tribe. At the end of the workshop, you can take home a jar of the pickled mustard greens you made yourself, so this heartwarming memory can live on.

Follow the game trails in search of smoky hunting memories

Yongling Mountain is like the rear garden of the Uninang Community (Sunungsung) and the hunters’ path to the hunting grounds. Join the tribe’s hunters on the game path to learn about the rules and taboos in hunting. Take part in the archery and spear-throwing competitions, learn about preservation and smoked meat, and experience the wilderness of Uninang.

Sour and salty flavors in the woodsmoke

Look out over the East Rift Valley as you experience the taste of the wilderness. Feast on authentic specialty cuisine such as smoked meats and pigeon pea spare rib soup. Pickled mustard greens infuse the pigeon pea spare rib soup with their sour and salty flavor. Experience the happiness of coming home and being reunited with family. The banquet and songs provide a feast for both the senses of taste and hearing.
