Malay traditional Desert- DODOL





By this entry, i would like to share to all of you about one of the special desert among people in Malaysia. which is, DODOL.
 Dodol is a type of food that can be categorized in the group of sweet food (or dessert / hors d'oeuvre). Dodol very famous in Malacca. Make arguably dodol very complicated. Many people are always trying to make it. But not all of which will produce high quality dodol. Usually they are adept at making dodol consists of those who have aged. Skilled young people rarely make dodol.
The materials needed to make are consist of coconut milk, rice flour, sugar, brown sugar and salt. By making, materials should be mixed together in a large skillet or known as the cauldron and cook over medium heat large . Of cooking cooked should not be allowed because if left unchecked, will dodol charred or burnt at the bottom / crust. Therefore, dodol should always stirred in turn to get a good result. Cooked maturation takes a relatively long time, which is about four hours because if there is less than 4 hours, cooked dodol not good to eat if still not cook well. After 2 hours dodol is cooked, dodol will turn into a thick brown slightly. Maturation will be boiling and remove air bubbles. Right after that, dodol be stirred so that the bubble is not out of dodol crater until the ripe and keep it at the other case and the dodol should be cooled in a large pot. To get a good result and a delicious flavor, dodol be dark brown, shiny and thick. After that, the dodol may be cut and eaten. Normally dodol will be served to guests on certain days as days of festivities and feasts.
       So this is the uniqueness by living in Malaysia, lots of special food that can't be found in the other country  I love Malaysia.

As you can see below, this is the video how does the Dodol made. Check it out.
