This pandemic quarantine gives me all the time in the world to re-make my fav snacks and unlimited access to the kitchen, so this wfh thing doesn't really work for me. I end up making snacks with whatever we have in the kitchen. If the pandemic doesn't get me, obesity sure will. Help!

            Tahu Gejrot is one of famous traditional snack of Indonesia. Gejrot itself means “grind”. Grind your food doesn’t really sounds nice, isn’t?! but we call it so because the way we prepare it is we grind the spices with an indonesian mortar pestle (cobek/ulekan). If you got your tahu gejrot from the local seller, you will se they do this with full-force, almost looks like they are trying to kill the spices. 

This soup is best to be served with rice cake like ketupat. There are many different variation of this recipe from almost each region in Indonesia. Usually each region modifies a bit of the ingredients or the spices but they are all have similar taste. This soup is a classic soup on Eid day. Eid day celebration is not complete without having this dish on the table for dinner with family. 

As I warned you before, there will be another recipes using Gochujang sauce (korean spicy paste) and here is one! Today I made spicy tofu with gochujang sauce. It tastes as fingerlicking good as it looks, and its easy to make too. Everyone knows tofu is good for your health but unfortunately sometime most people consider tofu a bit dull in taste. I guarantee this recipe will make the simple white toffu you often neglect become tasty.
