I think that the traditional use of the ricepounder has dwindled through the years. When I visited the province in my younger days, it seemed to have been used by almost every household. Recently though, it has become a rare commodity.
It is a shame that I have not learnt how to use this. Who has tried this and succeeded? Or failed? And what do we call it? In #Kankanaey, pagbayuan? Panbayuan?
It was pure luck that I got this photo. For some reason, during one of my visits to my beloved #Kapangan, it was just there, at the front door. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! So the smart phone came in handy. Click! #Benguet #culture #tradition
