But it is not wrong to try a variety of typical snacks of Aceh that you may never meet in other places.

Cakes similar to bird's nest (fiber) often attract attention, almost in some places this typical Aceh cake is used as souvenir or fruit hand. Not only that, just before the feast day or traditional and festive occasions in Aceh, this keukarah often become one of the often present dish. With a cup of coffee or tea, this keukarah could be the right choice to enjoy the flavor. In addition to crunchy, the cake is still fairly popular among the people of Aceh is also sweet, crisp, and fragile. Nothing is difficult to find ingredients of keukarah, like rice flour, sugar and water stirred one into a thick and unbroken dough. With the help of a hollow container or a custom-made coconut shell, the dough has slowly flowed into the heated cooking oil by forming the fiber-like slab. Once cooked, the slab is folded into a segidua or triangle. Uniquely, this keukarah made must with patience, the article eumpung miriek cakes can only be fried one by one in a frying pan, so it takes a relatively long time. But, for those of you who do not bother with frying can order it or buy at snack shops and gifts in Aceh who sell it, even almost every road cross Aceh this keukarah cake can be found.

Keukarah, or Karah is a traditional cake of Aceh that is crisp and crisp textured. At first glance he looks like a noodle hun. The color is golden yellow, derived from the natural color of the dough fried using oil. Some call this cake with the name of the Bird's Nest cake. The shape of the cake was varied, in the North Eastern coast of Aceh, generally this cake-shaped crescent with a length of about 10-15 cm. While in West Aceh generally triangular, the size is also varied, there is a cupee or small plate, there is a plate, and there is a larger one, depending on the needs and tastes. The big one is usually no longer crisp, the texture becomes clay, to facilitate how to eat it is usually brewed with tea or hot coffee. In Aceh this cake is often a major treat at Hari Raya, at the wedding ceremony is often also a filler talam as delivery, as well as in the ceremonies of death is often used as a souvenir when visiting the family of grief. Especially in the area of West Aceh and surrounding areas. The basic ingredients used to make this cake are very simple, just rice and water flour, with added sugar for sweet giver. But the manufacturing process is a bit complicated. The mold is made of coconut shell. Just like a wooden spoon (aweuk kayee) widely used by the people of Aceh first. The bottom of the shell is perforated as much as the tip of the stick. The well-mixed dough is then put into the mold, then shaken into preheated oil. Once the dough falls into the oil immediately formed using a small wood. Then just wait for the cake cooked and immediately removed to drained. When the Seaborn Pride MV vessel visited Sabang recently, Keukarah became a favorite food attracted by tourists. To enjoy this cake you do not need to wait Lebaran or marriage ceremony, simply by visiting traditional markets or outlets that exist along the road Lampisang to Lhoknga, Banda Aceh.

Keukarah is a typical Aceh snack that rarely found, since childhood until now I love it in addition to crisp texture and crunchy shape is also very unique like a bird's nest, but in the west aceh form there is a triangle with small or large size whereas where I live east aceh resembles a crescent moon. Before his grandmother died he was adept at making traditional cookies ranging from meuseukat, bhoi and one of them this keukarah and many received orders on holidays or when the wedding, the order itself comes from neighbors and relatives. Karah, I prefer to call it that way, and usually we find many times when Idul Fitri and Eid al-Adha, or bridal show, every time visit to my relatives house I found this cake, it turns out not all houses provide it on every Eid because they prefer other modern pastries keukarah. In my former residence there are some people who work as a maker of keukarah and their age of about 50's, over the course of time they died one by one because of age factor and sick coincidence also my mother at home likes to order karah on them. Actually the material needed to make it very simple and easy to get in the market but somehow very little that can make it, one day I once asked the mother and the answer was the process of making quite complicated also so people are reluctant to make their own, if there is usually the science is passed down from parents, for example the mother used to be a karah maker later when the mother died his son who will inherit the business.

In my family only Uwak brother of father who can make karah, every lebaran he always make it for us as a family, sometimes we get shipment even though no other lebaran or celebration. Two years ago while still studying in Sudan summer holiday I returned home and returned to Sudan after Idul Fitri as souvenirs I brought traditional cakes including keukarah to friends from various countries, beyond their expectations also love it plus again will be more meaningful when eating it dipped in coffee or tea like the habit of sudan people who likes ngeteh morning and evening so klop when presented to them souvenir of keukarah. How to make this cake and what are the ingredients, we start from the ingredients that is rice flour is given water then added sugar as a sweetener flavor, all the ingredients are stirred evenly into one, then how to make using a mold made of coconut shell that looks like a spoon wood that used by the people of Aceh (in my house still use the wooden spoon), then under the coconut shell given as many holes as possible and the size of the hole as big as the tip of the stick, well then put the dough into the mold then rocking the mold above preheated cooking oil, once the dough falls into the oil immediately form by using a wooden spoon then wait until the color is brownish, then lift and drain and ready to serve, which must be remembered is how to fry must be one by one so it takes a lot of time and patience extra. To enjoy the keukarah do not have to wait for Eid or wedding ceremony, as a typical cake aceh although we can not make it own now sold in many outlets along the street lampisang to lhokNga Banda Aceh, or can visit traditional markets and is very suitable to be brought as by- by for friends or relatives when you visit Aceh.

One of the traditional snacks typical of Aceh that still survive until now is keukarah or kue karah. Dried cake that has a sweet and crispy taste to be a fitting friend while relaxing while enjoying a cup of coffee typical of Tanah Rencong. Now, the cake is getting rare. The crisp and crunchy texture combined with a unique shape resembling a bird's nest, making this cake more attractive. On this week's Culinary Edition of the week, Azwani Awi, presents the keukarah snack for the readers. UNIQUE and weird. The impression was seen when the first time a visitor from Malaysia saw a typical Aceh snacks that ditabalkan keukarah. Looking at the shape, the traveler immediately asked, "What is this? Is this a wallet's nest? "

The question does not stop there. When a tour guide explains that the keukarah is a typical Aceh snack, the guest again threw a question, "This cake is made of swiftlet nest, kah?" The question is a fairness because it attracts attention. When viewed from the texture, keukarah indeed resembles a bird's nest. Only, more regular shape, can be varied according to taste. There are crescent shapes, rolls, disks, and triangles. However, there is no swallow bird's nest mixture in the dough. Keukarah is a confectionary made from a mixture of flour and coconut milk. The size of one adult's palm. It feels very crispy, sweet, crisp, and fragile. Because of its unique shape, this cake is often used as a souvenir that can be brought to anywhere.

To make this keukarah cake is quite difficult. It takes special care and patience to get it done. The ingredients such as rice flour, sugar, and water are stirred one into a thick and unbroken dough. With the help of a hollow container or a custom-made coconut shell, the dough is poured into a heated cooking oil slowly, forming a fiber-like slab. Once cooked, the slab is folded into a segidua or triangle. Making this endurance must be with patience. Therefore, the cake can only be fried one by one in a frying pan, so it takes a relatively long time. The complexity of the manufacturing process causes the hardness found in the shop window, except at certain times, such as Eid day.

But, for those of you who do not want to bother with a frying pan, can order it or buy at the shops snacks and souvenirs typical of Aceh.
