Hello everyone. How are you? I hope you are doing well. Since Sunday, I left for Poso, Central Sulawesi. I departed from Jakarta since 9 pm. The total trip was almost 24 hours, by land and air.
How the story of the trip to Poso? I found a unique food. Actually, on the island of Java (Jakarta or West Java) we have found this food. However, this food is very unique. This food is yellow rice.
I feel, nasi kuning (translate in english yellow rice) that I eat is very special. Previously, for a long time, especially in my family, yellow rice as a special food. But, this yellow rice that I ate was very special. Very colorful yellow rice typical of hammer.
In Palu, yellow rice is a breakfast food. I also found out that yellow rice is wrapped in a leaf typical of the region here. I forgot the name of the leaf again. Oh yes, yellow rice in Palu is served in celebratory occasions too.
In fact, yellow rice is also served at weddings and other traditional events. So, what's the difference? There is the "kodobo" seasoning. This is a mixture of grated coconut, fancy onions, garlic, galangal and turmeric. This spice is cooked until it releases a fragrant aroma.
In addition to the distinctive seasoning, there is roughly an abundance of fried onions in the yellow rice. The side dish is very distinctive, the chicken seasoning is cooked red with a slightly sweet taste. Oh yes, for the complete yellow rice, there is red seasoned chicken, omelet, fried lung and beef cooked with soy sauce.
