In the experience of the people, the color of the sticky is: Green, red, black, purple, yellow (sometimes white). Green is extracted from ginger leaves, black from brass leaves, yellow from turmeric or fruit won, reds are made from the pink or purplish leaves, white is available from sticky rice. To create these colors, the people took each type of forest leaves on the small, extracted solid water, soaked rice separately for each color of water about 6 hours and then cook each rice separately. Rice must be sticky rice planting on the slope with more flavor than ordinary folds.

This is not just food, but cultural quintessence. Each color has its own philosophical meaning, 5 colors corresponding to the five substances in the "five elements" that have matching.
