Putu Cake - Traditional Desserts

Hello everyone and all members of the community, how are you today? I hope all of you are always healthy and happy in carrying out every activity and routine that you are doing. Some time ago, I was told by my wife about Hive Top Chef by @Qurator which took the theme “Traditional Dessert”. My wife knows that once in a while I like to make traditional desserts and this contest seems to be for me. And this is my first time joining Hive Top Chef and hopefully I will continue to participate, of course if I get the right theme.

For your information, my country consists of many ethnicities and cultures. Each culture gives a different dimension and color culinary in my country. Knowing the theme of “traditional dessert”, I immediately remembered a traditional dessert that I often eat and have ever made. This food is made from grated coconut. As you know, Indonesia is a tropical country that has a very wide coastline and of course many coconut trees.

Coconut is a plant that almost all parts of the tree are useful for humans. Coconut fronds can be used for brooms, coconut stalks can be made into boards, and coconuts also produce coconut milk and can be used as ingredients for food or cooking. This time, I will share the Putu Cake recipe, this traditional dessert is very easy to make and the ingredients used are easy to obtain.

Putu cake is usually made using a bamboo mold, we also usually call it Putu Bamboo. Since I don't have a bamboo mold, I replaced it with a stainless case which we usually call Lumpang. Here is the recipe for making Putu Cake, I will try to explain it in an easy and simple way.

Food Tools and Ingredients:

100 grams of grated coconut
30 grams of rice flour
100 grams of palm sugar
20 grams of sugar
salt to taste
50 ml coconut milk

How To Make :

prepare a container to mix some ingredients. Enter the grated coconut, rice flour, white sugar and coconut milk then stir until well blended.

after that, prepare a stainless bowl and add a little oil to prevent sticking.

Then, put the dough into the bowl and put the palm sugar in the middle.

Prepare a steamer and steamed for 30 minutes.

Putu cake is ready to be served.

Putu Cake has a very tasty and delicious taste. The texture is very soft, so it can be eaten by anyone even without the need for teeth. Putu Cake has a sweet and savory taste. The sweet taste is given by palm sugar, and coconut makes this food so savory.
