Cooking Fest–All Time Low

The first mindset that we all had the about KKN is that we will visit a very not-well-conditioned village. Not-well-conditioned means that maybe there would be no electricity available, or water will be so hard to be collected, no all-day market, or unfavorable place to do personal business like taking a bath etc. It was all proven to be wrong when we finally came to Desa Kutuh. Here, electricity full for 24 hours, water drains so good (it’s not in a very good quality anyway), it has many stores and some mini-resto. To summs it all, let’s level this village, VERY GOOD.

The biggest theme that we brought to this village is The Development of Koperasi. What is Koperasi, for you who don’t know about it yet, Koperasi (comes from foreign word cooperation means to work together) is somekind of trading organization which is so usual to be found in Indonesia. Works under the principle of humanity, brotherhood, and togetherness, Koperasi is made to organize to facilitate the wealth of people who join in it.

Let’s jump to what I want to share. So Koperasi Sari Segara, the Koperasi that actually we want to develop in Kutuh, wild held a cooking demo to show us how to process the seaweed into user-end-consumption product. So this is some photos that I took during the cooking fest. And gosh….. I forgot to take the photos of the people who made the demo –____- Too focus on eating the product hahaha…

The white seaweeds, primary ingredient, comes after the process of cleaning and boiling.

This woman in the left were going to show us how to make crackers from the seaweeds.

They tried to show us how to make juice from the seaweeds. I thought this was not a kind of juice that I usual see. It was more like Seaweed mixed with Milk.

I don’t know who’s this guy. I thought he was a stove seller or something like that.

The process of frying “Seaweeds Rempeyek”. It mixed with Teri fish, that makes it more like “Rempeyek Teri”

No appropriate photos of Seaweeds Rempeyek available since the product goes first to our stomach ^_^

From left to right, The Extract of Seaweeds (like Jelly Drink), The Juice, and The Rempeyek.

Here you could see the jelly in the bottom of the glass.

Here you could see a genie out of the bottle ^_^

Well, I don’t have any explanation about this one…do you put your face on oiled friying pan Nat?
