In a day, people usually eat three times. The first time of the morning, we usually call with breakfast. Second, eat during the day and our last meal at night (but not dinner because to reduce the weight). But the distance between lunch and dinner that usually makes us often eat something menu that is not too heavy, in Indonesia known as the snacks in the afternoon.

The afternoon also one-time can bring both a home, as dad was already home from work, and the child's home school. I have a habit of if coming home from work before 5 pm going to buy food. Usually I would ask my wife, what are you going to eat ? salty or sweet. That day he said he wanted to then sweet, and of the many options of food there I choose to buy lemang. A culinary native to Indonesia that is still so the debate of where he comes from, whether from the malay, minangkabau or batak?

Lemang Panas Jaya

I bought lemang in the Lemang Panas Jaya, one of the outlets of the seller lemang, which is famous in the city of medan. Incidentally the owner surnamed Lubis, one of the Batak clans many found in South Tapanuli. Here lemang to cook with how to traditional up to 4-5 hours, something that is difficult in the can in Medan City. Because many of the food vendors not to use ways of cooking lemang good, but in Lomang Hot Jaya them cultivate this food properly so that it tastes very good.

Information for you, Lemang in cook using a container bamboo. Techniques and how to cook lemang is one of the techniques of cooking the most time and energy spent. Need to prep and pproses burning. There are several stages such as stage of the bamboo container burned with fire and the roasting stage with coals that could take some time 3-4 hours. In total it took me 5 hours to dish lemang can eat.

How to cook that is not practical and the time spent to cook it to make the price of this dish are also a bit expensive compared to other snacks. Actually right now, many sellers lemang cooking lemang with how to make sticky rice on the stove then put in container bamboo and burned. This way saves a lot of time but got the taste is not as enjoyable as lemang on fuel total.

Bamboo container used for cooking lemang put banana leaves. The effect of bamboo, which burned with a banana leaf wrap makes a distinctive aroma and unique. Lemang is usually eaten with the additional sharing such as durian, tape sticky rice, rendang spices, or srikaya jam.

I bought lemang with srikaya jam, because at the moment it is only that which is available. Actually, I like to eat lemang when there kuah rendang. It's a very tasty full of flavour. The Menu that I could get, when I go to my hometown in the Rantau Prapat City the time of eid al-fitr.

Whether at your place there is a menu of food in cooking with bamboo ?
