인도네시아 음식 (Indonesian street snacks)


We have eaten some of the Korean dishes. Now, it is our turn to introduce our guests, Hye Ryong and Won to our Indonesian food. They are Bala-bala, Cakue, Cireng and Onde-onde. After eating 부침개, we remembered our Indonesian food called Bala-bala. The taste is almost the same. For Bala-bala, you need carrot, cabbage and you can add shrimp if you like. Mix all of them with flour and fry the mixture in small size. You need tapioca for Cireng. You can add ground peanuts—which was mixed with some red peppers—inside. I don’t know the recipe for making Cakue and Onde-onde. Well, you can always search it in the internet, right? So, finally our Korean guests could taste the Indonesian side dish. Hye Ryong said that they had the dish that tasted the same like Cakue and Onde-onde but they didn't have Cireng in Korea. Well, you can only find Cireng in Bandung and maybe in Sundanese area or some towns near Bandung. After tasting those four side dishes, we took them to Sorabi parlor. Sorabi or Serabi is pancake made of rice flour. The famous site for Sorabi (Sundanese language) or Serabi (Indonesian language) parlors is in Setiabudi. They actually pass the parlors everyday because their school is near those parlors. The Sorabi parlors in that area offer you many variety of Sorabi. The traditional ones are sweet Sorabi and Sorabi oncom. Sweet Sorabi is Sorabi that is dipped into palm sugar sauce. Whereas Surabi oncom is Surabi which has oncom as its topping. Oncom is a fermented cake made from soybean sediment. Now, Sorabi can be mixed with cheese, banana, chocolate, milk, egg, and even with strawberry sauce. My mom and I sometimes make Sorabi at home during holiday. For making Sorabi, you need the clay bowl that has cover. It is not expensive. You can buy it at traditional market. Curious about Sorabi, just go to Jalan Setiabudi near UPI. It’s very delicious. 잘 먹겠습니다 ^^.
P.s. here's a blog a bout Serabi, http://foodid.blogspot.com/2005/02/many-kinds-of-indonesian-pancakes-part.html

프라이팬 놀이/Frying Pan Game/BTS

Playing Frying Pan Game/BTS We played a new game called Frying pan game (프라이팬 놀이) with our Korean guests in our Korean Class. It was fun. It’s like catching the mouse game. We learn the Korean numbers in the same time.  Say, if your friend mentions your name and the number, you have to mention your name according to the number he/she mentions previously.  For example, if your friend says "Dana dul (2)", so you have to say your name twice, "Dana...Dana" and so on and so on. If you make a mistake, well, you get the punishment. The type of the punishment depends on the agreement of the players. They are many types, trust me. Just choose one.  This game was played on one of the TV programs in Korea hosted by Kang Ho Dong (강 호 동), Hye Ryong said. 재미 있네요. 우리 애들이 놀이를 좋아해요.  But hey! BTS too played this game on one of their TV shows.  You can check out the video  here  So far, we have learned many Korean games. Mostly we got...

Yutnori

Yutnori Apa itu Yutnori ? Hmmm... pernah dengar yutnori (dibaca: yunnori)? kata ini bukan berasal dari bahasa Jawa tapi bahasa Korea. Yutnori adalah nama salah satu permainan tradisional Korea.  Permainan ini biasa dimainkan secara beregu ketika acara tahun baru Korea yang disebut juga 설날 (sollal) . Tahun baru biasanya menjadi ajang kumpul seluruh anggota keluarga. Selain makan Tteokguk , mereka biasanya memainkan Yutnori . Ini penampakan Yutnori , ada papan permainan dan dadunya. Yang unik, dadunya tidak bentuk kotak seperti kebanyakan dadu pada umumnya tapi berbentuk batangan. Hal lain yang membedakan dadu  yutnori  dari dadu pada umumnya adalah tidak ada bentuk titik-titik yang melambangkan angka. Yang ada itu tulisan  도  (Do),  개  (Gae),  걸  (Gul), dan  윷  (Mo) .   Eh, permainan ini pernah muncul disalah satu drama Korea yang dulu nge-hits banget dulu, Princess Hours. Kalau tidak salah di ep...

Historical Visit

Historical Visit Besides visiting Baduy. We also visited the old Banten. Banten used to be the most popular kingdom. It is known till England. Once their representative visited England and they were welcomed exaggeratedly. Banten is famous because it had an international port for trading. People from many countries visited it. Unfortunately there’s disagreement between the father—Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa—and the son—Sultan Haji who collaborated with the Dutch—which lead to the destruction of the palace and the vanquishing the offspring of the royal family. They now spread everywhere. The remnant was unknown back then till recently on the initiative of one person there the digging was conducted. During the old regime, Old Banten was stated to be dead site. So, not like Borobudur temple, the Old Banten remained infamous. The reconstruction was done very slowly. You can see in my pictures there. Instead now, the site is famous for the people who believe in magic tricks. They wh...
