RUJAK CUKA/ASINAN KHAS BANDUNG
One of well-known Indonesian culinary is rujak,
which comes from some regions such as Bandung, Bogor, Jakarta, East Java, and
etc. In this special occasion, what I wanna highlight is rujak cuka/asinan khas Bandung. This menu is usually served as the
additional menu in fastbreaking time.
In Bandung, this rujak is very popular, and has some variants, i.e. rujak cuka/asinan with vegetable or
fruit, or both, as the main ingredient,
which can be found easily, or if it’s difficult to find, we can replace them
with another vegetable and fruit. Rujak Cuka
is sour, spicy and little bit sweet food, in which it used acid/vinegar in its
making proccess. It is usually served with
fried peanut and cracker. Basically, it is nearly the same with rujak in general, the diference is just
in the making process.Well, to make it clear, let’s get down to the recipe or how to make Rujak Cuka/Asinan Khas Bandung.
