Kue Putu-Indonesian Traditional Snack

Kue Putu-Indonesian Traditional Snack Review

Hello! I come back to give another review but today I will share about one kind of Indonesian traditional snack called Kue Putu. If you have a chance to visit Indonesia, don't forget to try Kue Putu because it is so ubiquitous and surely cheap. You will find them in small cities or villages. Nowadays, the sellers ride a bicycle. Have you tried Kue Putu? Let me know your opinions about its taste. 

Kue Putu is steamed rice flour dough stuffed with brown sugar and then added with coconut and sugar powder. The taste is sweet enough and it reminds me with all of my childhood memories. I only need to pay IDR 10K (U$ 0.7) for 10 pieces of Kue Putu. So cheap of course! 

Kue Putu also has nice fragrant comes from the traditional method in cooking rice flour dough. The rice flour dough is put inside the bamboo tubes and then steamed for 2-3 minutes. You will miss the taste because the taste is so balanced, the rice flour steamed cake is a little bit salty and plain sometimes and the brown and powder sugar give sweetness inside and outside of Kue Putu.

I'm going to buy when I know Kue Putu's seller near my house. That's my review. I hope you would like to share your traditional or lokal snacks to me! Have a nice day!
