Hello Everyone, i think i already tell you about the village food from palembang. And now i want to tell you about the most Popular food in palembang except Pempek/Fishcake ( It’s Well known sooo just skip it )
Alright, this is the first food
Model, hearing her name, maybe people outside South Sumatra did not think that the name was the name of one of Palembang’s culinary specialties. Just like most Palembang specialties, such as Tekwan, for example, the model is also made from the main ingredients in the form of mackerel fish. In fact, in general, tekwan and models are made from the same materials, it’s just different in the processing process.
One culinary shop owner in the Musi River revealed that the materials used in making the model included mackerel fish, sago flour, eggs, and Chinese tofu. How to make it is not too difficult, at first clean the mackerel fish from thorns and scales, then stir the flavor while adding other ingredients in the form of eggs, salt, and enter little by little ice water while continuing to stir until it reaches a certain thickness.
After the model mixture is finished, shape the dough to make it possible to place Chinese tofu pieces on top. The dough that has been formed is then fried. To produce perfect results, the fire used for frying is set not to be too large. Similar to Tekwan’s culinary, the model is enjoyed along with shrimp sauce.
The model sauce is made using ingredients such as shrimp, onion and white, celery leaves, savory leaves, ear mushrooms, pepper. In making a model broth, the first thing to do is to separate the shrimp head from the body. Shrimp head does not need to be thrown away, but boiled in water to be made into soup. While the body of shrimp is sauteed together with other seasonings. The stir-fry is then put into the shrimp head’s cooking water. In order for the sauce flavor to permeate, the fried model is then inserted into the finished product.
The Palembang model is usually served with vermicelli noodles and cucumber slices. You can add chili or sauce, for those who enjoy the sensation of spicy taste. In Palembang, model sellers also usually sell tekwan, this is because the ingredients are the same, only there is a slight difference in the way they are processed. One portion of the usual model is sold at Rp 10,000, a relatively affordable price to enjoy this delicious culinary from Palembang, let alone enjoyed while looking at the historic Ampera Bridge.
And the second is
Enjoying traditional food from various regions in Indonesia makes us recognize its culinary characteristics. From Palembang for example, so far we know pempek dishes made from fish with spicy sauce. In addition, there are tekwan and models who are also the culinary favorites of this region.
In Bandung, there are places to eat where you can enjoy a variety of dishes typical of Palembang in one place. The name is Pempek Flamboyant, located in Tubagus Ismail, Bandung. Although carrying the name pempek, this shop also serves a variety of authentic Palembang dishes, such as models and tekwan.
Models and tekwan are food that is usually enjoyed as a friend of rice or eaten directly. The mixture in tekwan consists of processed fish, ear mushrooms, vermicelli, cucumbers, and shrimp sauce. The dough for the model and tekwan is made from mackerel or cork fish.
The method of making model and takwan stuffing, according to Lies, is almost the same as processing pempek. Only, the composition of fish in the model and tekwan more. In making the model, the fish mixture is mixed with tofu then fried before it is mixed with gravy. Where the fish in the tekwan mixture is not mixed with tofu and not fried. The way to make tekwan is boiled, similar to making meatballs.
When served in a bowl, the broth tastes sweeter because of the combination of shrimp and yam in it. The tekwan sauce is more spicy. According to Lies, the model is usually consumed at night, while tekwan is more enjoyable to eat during the day. For each portion of the model and tekwan priced at Rp 15 thousand in Palembang
