Jungle and ocean. Perpetual neighbors in this country.
The only way to keep naughty kitties from swiping a snack — up high and hanging. 🐟😻
Budu Belimbi from Ataúro Island. Nope, it’s not Indonesian, but Timorese. Though with these ingredients — belimbi (belimbing), ai-manas (cabe) and masin (garam) — this pickled condiment can easily be made in Indonesia as well!
This edition of our monthly recipe series belongs entirely to Paula Wolfert, who recorded this kecap manis recipe in the 1970s from Javanese immigrants in Queens, New York. Amazingly, it even includes daun sere, daun salam and laos — ingredients she was able to source into the United States at the time. Go to our Linktree bio for the recipe and to read our feature blog about her! ☝🏼
All the senses are heightened when one travels. For Crystal, smelling, tasting, and touching anything she can get her hands on deepens her experience on every research trip. She doesn’t let a single plant pass her by. 🌱
This is then, and this is now. . . In the 1970s, Paula Wolfert travelled through Moroccan villages to record traditional recipes and ingredients from the women of the country. She did so with a fierceness and grace to better understand, not just the cuisine, but the people and livelihoods that made up her experience. We can’t imagine a better role model to base our own journeys on. . . Go to our Linktree in the bio to read our newest feature article on this intrepid figure in the food industry, and in particular, her time learning about Indonesian cuisine and introducing it to an American audience. She’ll win your hearts like she won ours. ❤️
