One of unique food from my hometown, Bengkulu, is tempoyak. The people in other provinces usually don’t know tempoyak. Therefore, I will introduce tempoyak to all of the people who live in other provinces in Indonesia, especially for durian fans. Tempoyak is a food with durian as its main substance. The durian is fermented with salt for two days. Then, it will be mixed with other substances. Other substances of tempoyak are milled garlic, onion, chili, and turmeric, milk squeezed from coconut, sugar and a little salt. We can add some tiny sea fishes or shrimps into it. As it is consists of those substances, tempoyak is soft like durian, its color is orange like turmeric, it tastes sour, sweet, and hot. Tempoyak can add the appetite of food. That’s why the people in Bengkulu like it very much.
