This man is selling Tape Ketan and Uli.
Tape Ketan is sweet fermented black glutinous rice and the Uli is the white glutinous rice cooked with coconut milk and salt then wrapped into banana leaves.
According to the seller man, the tape ketan will turn into alcohol after 2 days. Hence, it need to be eaten directly.

5 star foodie: It's glutinous rice which is sticky if it's cooked :)
ReplyDeleteck lam: There are many kind of desserts using glutinous rice also here in Indonesia :)
agree w CK, ours are cooked differently but i sure wannna try these when i'm in JKK! on the side streets of Thailand also got some varieties of snacks like these sold. Guess its a popular/affordable thing for us asians ;) ?
ReplyDeleteI wish I could imagine what this tastes like but I really can't! It sure looks great though! I would try it if I had the chance! :0)
ReplyDeleteTNG: Yes, I think so too :) Oh, in Thailand, they got the sticky rice with mango. I've never tried it.
ReplyDeletethe ungourmet: It's salty and sweet. You gotta visit Indonesia someday ;)
Mmm, glutinous rice with coconut? I am there!
ReplyDeletemica: you like glutinous rice and coconut milk? That's nice :)
ReplyDeletejust like Tempe-wouldn't it be nice two days later with alcohol?
ReplyDeleteThe Uli is called TAPAI in Malaysia. Taste weird a bit .... maybe I am not used to eat this stuff.
ReplyDeletefoodbin: you wish tempe to turn to alcohol after 2 days?Hahaha...
ReplyDeleteemail2me: Oh.. sweet fermented tapioca is called tapai or tape in Indonesia :)
I'd like to try both the sweet fermented rice and Uli it seems as a yummy snack. I suppose that both are popular, aren't they? Why not glutinous rice more coconut milk?, for sure must taste very good :)
ReplyDeleteVery interesting! I've never heard of fermented black glutinous rice before. Uli sounds very delicious :). I like how the man presented his products to the customers.
ReplyDeleteGera: Yes, these snacks are quite famous as a traditional snack, so I don't think you can find it in the malls or restaurants :)
ReplyDeleteETE: Yes, it is interesting indeed :)
This is excellent for my carbo fix. I do eat quite a bit of sticky rice here esp. sugared one!
ReplyDeleteworldwindows: This Uli aka glutinous rice is salty and the tape ketan is not really sweet :)
ReplyDeleteWhen it's fermented, cannot eat oledi??? Interesting!
ReplyDeleteprecious pea: Can.. can eat it if it's already turn to alcohol but then it tasted like sake, I think :)
ReplyDeleteSo it's a savoury snack? I've never heard of this before...
ReplyDeleteThe red glutinous rice looks like the rice my mum use to make red rice wine! =)

ReplyDeleteLooks good. Love how they cook rice in so many different ways, especially when turning it into sweet dishes.
ReplyDeleteis the tape ketan still edible after it turn into alcohol ? :p
ReplyDeletejust curious ~

ReplyDeleteCheers,
elra
I LOVE those things! these little different "kuihs"!! It's the only way I'll ever eat rice! haha! what's your fav kind?
ReplyDeleterice cooked in coconut milk...drool..
ReplyDeleteMaking me jealous because I want cool stuff like that around here.
Both are new to me!
ReplyDeleteelra: Eh… you can speak bahasa Indonesia? ;) Well, I do have the recipe but the problem is I always have difficulty in translating Indonesian recipes to English. Yeah..I know I need to learn it :D
ReplyDeleteburpandslurp: Hehehe… This totally different than kuih. I like glutinous rice :)
jeff: Yes, rice cookied with coconut milk and a pinch of salt is very savory and tasty. You can cook it by your own ;)
food for tots: Another new food to be in your try food list ;)
I bet I'd just love these...so interesting, thanks.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen those before. So nice of you to post pictures and talk about it.
ReplyDeletecatherine: Nice to be able to show the Indonesian local snack :)
ReplyDeletehelene: Glad to share it :)
I've never seen the sweet black glutinous rice before, though I've had white and green (young rice) versions in Vietnam, both sweet and savory. They're called xoi, and they're a favorite snack of mine. Of course, they're different from these, but they're often wrapped in banana leaves, too. Ah, I'd love to try these!
ReplyDeletesapuche: Green young rice? That's sounds interesting. You should visit Indonesia someday ;)
ReplyDeletei guess tape is tapai here in malaysia. i havent tried it before but i'm sure it's delicious. i've tried black glutinous porridge though. ;D
ReplyDeletenic: Hahaha... the tape ketan tasted completely different than the black glutinous porridge :) If you like sake, then I think you will like tape ketan after it turned to alcohol.
ReplyDelete"the tape ketan will turn into alcohol after 2 days. Hence, it need to be eaten directly.."
ReplyDeletehmm... i think I'd rather wait the two days.. :P hehe
cumi & ciki: Hehehe... make sure not to get drunk! ;)
ReplyDeleteSelba, your blog is perfect for someone planning to visit Indonesia. I love it! So much interesting information. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou must try the avocado cheesecake...
That looks so...interesting! I love trying new foods! I need to travel more.
ReplyDeleteHow did it taste?
Thank you for sharing Selba. You are my new stop and visit blog. Always something interesting here. I even just enjoy the street pictures. It's nice to see outside my little world. I so wish I could go there and try some street food.
ReplyDeletefor Malaysian bloggers
ReplyDeleteif you wanna to try this thing just go to your nearest 'pasar malam' place
and go to malay stall where they sell kuih.
some of them sell 'TAPAI' and you can buy it....
after that how many day you can leave it before you can eat it.
They both look very exotic. I am learning quite a bit about Asian foods. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteooo over here we called them pulut tapai and its always white glutinous rice. this is my first seeing the black one in use.
ReplyDeletedragana: Hi Dragana, welcome to my blog and thank you for your compliment. Yes, definitely I will try the avocado cheesecake someday :)
ReplyDeleteconnie weiss: Hi Connie, welcome to my blog :) The uli (white glutinous rice) tasted a bit chewy and salty and as for the sweet black glutinous rice, it tasted sweet juice and a bit texture.
lori: Thank Lori, I’m so happy that I can show something interesting in my blog :)
pisang goreng: A great info for the Malaysian floggers :)
ReplyDeleteMTC: Glad to share something different :)
babe_kl: Must give it a try the black glutinous rice ;)
Interesting! Extended from email2me, Iban serves tapai drink as guest that come to the long houses. It's a traditional drink which can taste from bitter to sweet..
ReplyDeletesakaigirl: It's also interesting to know that tapai drink is a traditional drink for the Iban :)
ReplyDeleteI was just mentioning to Steven regarding where to get good white glutinous rice tapai aka tape in Penang. I used to take a lot of these but somehow I did not seem to find any around anymore.
