Selam everybody...Merhaba from Turkiye.. (^,^)

I know many people love Roll Cake aka swiss roll....and I guess not a few of us either got struggled to make it one perfectly. 
Some end up with crack during rolling it--that's common problem on making roll cake. I know.. I've been there before..or even until now sometimes I have that problem.

But I never give up on things...no no no..not me! (^,^) . I kept learning, trial and error on some recipe and technique so I can determine what kind factors which make sad face on us when making this unique delicacy dessert. I am not an expert person who can tell you what to do or not to do to make roll cake perfect. And I'm not guarantee either after you read my review you will 100% success making it... I just share according my last trial and error making this roll cake.. So if you have something on your mind...speak out to me..I'll be very happy and thankful. 

Bolu Gulung Keju / Swiss Roll with cream cheese filling

The recipe in my humble opinion is one important key to make perfect roll cake. Most roll cake recipe require less flour than liquid (from eggs, oil/ melted butter, etc) to make it flexible enough to handle.... But again..I'm not expert in this field. You may do trial and error also on some different recipes.

İşkembe Çorbası / Turkish style tripe soup

Merhaba From Türkiye 👋

First of all, I'd like to thank you for visiting my blog. I hope you can come back, again and again, to check up on any beyond Indonesian or Turkish food or something sweets that you might love. Your comments and emails brighten my days and make this simple blog thing worthwhile 😍💛

Beside in Turkey, this tripe soup is a common meal in Balkan area, Bulgaria, Greek and eastern Europe. Made of cow's tripe (dana İşkembe-turk) cooked in terbiyeli sauce and served with garlic-vinegar sauce. Terbiyeli sauce made from mixture of egg yolk, lemon juice, garlic, and flour. 

The taste of this soup is simply fresh and comfort meal during winter like nowadays. I serve it with sprinkle of parsley and a lot of flake red chilly.... hhhmmmm.....My husband can drink this soup with one loaf of medium bread alone without anything else, he just loves it!  it's instantly become my first favorite Turkish soup as Asian person

In Bursa, there are some lokanta (restaurant) which serve only soup as their menu. Their special menus are İşkembe Çorbası and Kelle paça çorbası (sheep head meat soup) and they are remarkably good! And if you eat something very delicious in a restaurant, you couldn't ask the chef what's ingredients he putted there and how to cook it nicely , could you? (^,^) --which I sometimes do to street food vendor..with a joke of course. Sometimes, they answer my question..sometimes they answer it with SMILE only (^,^)

Well, this İşkembe Çorbası recipe I get from searching on Internet, watching Turkish cooking show on TV, asking around my Turkish friend, my mother in law and neighbors (which mostly they don't cook this at home so they mostly don't have any idea exactly how to cook it ). The taste I tried to resemble as close as I can like at the restaurant. Try it, and I believe you will like it too (^,^)

Balado Tempe (Indonesian Tempeh cooked in sambal sauce)

Tempeh (/ˈtɛmpeɪ/), is a traditional soy product originally from Indonesia. It is made by a natural culturing and controlled fermentation process that binds soybeans into a cake form, similar to a very firm vegetarian burger patty. Tempeh is unique among major traditional soy foods in that it is the only one that did not originate from the Sinosphere cuisine.

It originated in today's Indonesia, and is especially popular on the island of Java, where it is a staple source of protein. Like tofu, tempeh is made from soybeans, but it is a whole soybean product with different nutritional characteristics and textural qualities. Tempeh's fermentation process and its retention of the whole bean give it a higher content of protein, dietary fiber, and vitamins. It has a firm texture and an earthy flavor which becomes more pronounced as it ages. Because of its nutritional value, tempeh is used worldwide in vegetarian cuisine, where it is used as a meat analogue.

And because tempeh has become part of our people in ages, we have so many kind of menu variant made of this tempeh. Start from light snack until the main course with variety in process and spices. You will never boring with this full of nutritious meat substitute.
