unique food Pematang Siantar

DO you have in mind when hearing the names of foods? Many food names are repeated, there is also the name of the food taken by the sensation of taste and atmosphere of the time eating the food. There are also lists the name of hometown food. Khazanah food in the archipelago is very abundant and unique. No less unique is the way to name these foods.


It is a souvenir shop on the edge of town Siantar, North Sumatra. This store is actually mediocre. However, when looking at the name of the food, visitors will be surprised or at least smile. There are eight foods, the ting-ting, teng-teng, tang-tang, tong-tong, tung-tung, pang-pang, ping-ping and pong-pong. Unique!


"On behalf of the recurrent related to the manufacturing process. In the process of manufacture or ripening, there is a process of repetition is performed until too many times or repeatedly mixing up the name of the process inherent in the name of the food, "said Jongkie Tio, owner of Restaurant Semarang, Semarang, guess how naming a variety of foods that .


In Jongkie note, in addition to gado-gado and oseng-oseng, there is still food names repeated, like untir-untir, iwel-iwel, hawug-hawug, arem-arem, intelligence, Ating-Ating, pia-pia, tela -tela, deck-gelo, ote-ote, Suwar-suwir, and heci-heci. There again, weather vane, scrambled, onde-onde, Ongol-Ongol, brains, ting-ting, ento-ento, and oblok-oblok. Most food is ethnic food Peranakan Javanese and Chinese.


About the meaning of repetition of the name of the food, he pointed out in Java, there are foods whose names are scrambled. This food is a mixture of vegetables and eggs. To make these foods, do not be silenced. The mixture must be repeatedly compromised for a meal with scrambled name it.


Jongkie also pointed out, making a cake made with onde-onde menggelundungkan ball-shaped cake on a bed of sesame seeds for sesame balls embedded in the cake.


According to Prof. Posman Sibuea, the effect of mixing processes such as cooking or repetitive is synergizing taste. Taste of several materials into one and more outgoing. Very possibly also when cooking and mixing are repeated a number of compounds that give out so that more flavor to food. He believes the traditional ways of mixing the repetitive it can not be replaced by machines. Manual ways it remains popular with many people because it seems more appropriate at the tongue compared with using the machine.


"Such, spicy sauce that blended taste different from the pulverized chili. People prefer a sauce that pulverized. In the study of technology, essential oils in a number of material was not out when just blended. The oil also gives a sense it is in cells and tissues will come out when pounded with stones, "said Posman.


Therefore, this issue is not just a matter of sensation pestle and mortar, but the technology can indeed be explained like that. Therefore, the process of making food that is done by repeating it until now very difficult to be replaced by machines because more consumers are choosing foods that are processed manually.


For the record, these foods are called repeatedly it is generally located in the area or place that her Chinese culinary influences are very strong. Note this still needs further investigation, but a number of these foods are made from raw wheat undeniable indeed come from China. In some places, not least the seller is the Chinese people.


Naming food with repetition it's just one of many ways people give names to the food archipelago. Many foods named carelessly, based on place names, and others.


"How old was named as the influence of the atmosphere, the name of the place, the effect of food into the body, and others. Such a rondo royal food. The name is taken from the assumption coquetry a widow. When eaten tongue must be up and down that looks girlish. From there rondo royal name appears, "said Jongkie.


Name sekenanya


First person to name just blindly food, casually, like-like. The term is very arbitrary. Despite the haphazard naming, there remains a very reasonable criteria so that a distinctive characteristic for each food.


He pointed out again the food is called sauce cemplung used for religious services among the Chinese. He recounts, meatballs made of know when cooking is inserted into the sauce and it said there was "mak plop". Be a food is called sauce cemplung.


As another example, the food is called trasikan sometimes called lara gudig because time in the mouth feels rough and is black and white to resemble gudig disease, a type of skin disease. There are also beer Semarang. Although containing the spices, the drink is called beer. The story, when the Dutch population to keep house to see his master was drinking beer. To mimic the habit, they go to drink that also make the body so hot.


Another way of naming is to use additional city names such as soto terrain, lunkhead arrowroot, pecel Madison, sate padang, banana pontianak, satay madura, warm Yogya, bika Ambon, and others. Naming is to characterize the origins of food with different characteristics of each.


However, there are some things unexplained causes, such as your name will not be met sate Madura in Madura, sate padang name would not be found in Padang, and also warm yogya name will not be found in the city of Yogyakarta, as well as a very strange is the name bika ambon are even easier to find in Medan. Conversely, soup terrain, lunkhead arrowroot, and several other food and easily found fame in his native place.


The story of naming foods that use the name of the city may be learned by looking at the case soto field. Soto Name field is expected not long ago emerged. Soto Name field is widely used as a soup of various regions began to go to Medan.


"The name has recently emerged field soto, circa the 1980s. When I was little just to know the name of soup. Later soto name field appears likely to distinguish the other kind of soup that comes into Medan, "said Head Center for the Study of Social Sciences and History, State University of Medan Ichwan Azhari.


He suspects field naming by the sellers soto soto soto is to maintain the existing characteristics in the city of Medan because unlike other soup, such as soto padang, soto madura, soto holy, and the soto betawi are now commonly found in Medan.


What does it mean in a name? Certainly the name has significance. In the midst of a culinary tour in the archipelago, a story or a history of naming of food becomes important, both to give insight to sit and eat well to study history and anthropology. We have food with names that are very unique.
