Wedang Ronde
We were in Yogyakarta end of January this year, me and my NCC fellows. We got to do a cake decorating demo promoting our books in Solo, then took the advantage of time and place by taking further trip to Yogyakarta. It was our last day, we drove to Alun-alun and spent the whole afternoon having Wedang Ronde, cycling around, giggling unstoppably along the process
Wedang Ronde is a Javanese dessert, one of the pride of Yogyakarta: glutinous rice balls stuffed with sweet peanut paste, floating in a hot and sweet ginger tea. Wedang means hot. But this dessert can be enjoyed cold too, although uncommon.
Classic, refreshing, nostalgic.
Damn good.Here is the recipe taken from the upcoming book of Fatmah Bahalwan & NCC Team, which is the 4th installment of 60 Foolproof Recipes series: Drinks & Dessert. So this is kinda a sneak preview.

A Red Afternoon
I have been knowing this dessert for quite long and loving it for its simplicity and complexity at the same time. Simple in your hand, complex on your tastebud. Almost everybody will frown the first time: balsamic vinegar with strawberries? Ya-ha! Not me though. The first time I read about this, it tingled me so hard I ran to the store and got the vinegar i never had any clue before. And it turned out so beautiful i loved it at once. Yada yada yada, it was another love at first bite.

I know exactly what you mean on not leaving fresh fruits standing around for too long. I gulp my fresh fruit juices just because i cant stand to watch them separate or go brown. This looks and sounds like an amazing way to serve up those strawberries!

cooking contests
I’ve had a strawberry dish similar to this at a gathering not too long ago. I was telling the hostess that she should submit the recipe to cooking contests — and I’m going to tell you the same. I adored this dish, even though I was skeptical at first.
Cheers!

Pennylane, congratulations for your baking achievment. Baklava is quiet challenging task.
You indeed has similar taste with me. I loved baklava (very bad for my weight though).
Fortunately, I lived in Middle East, Doha to be exact. Here, you can find baklava in most supermarket which comes in many variations and origins (i.e Lebanese, Syrian). Some variations even use flower petals as filling i.e. moroccan rose, lavender, thyme.
I really enjoy your blog … keep posting my dear

Hi Riana, I came across your blog while researching about butter-cream icing how Indo butter cream icing is much tastier than the Australian version that we got here. Love your blog especially the photography and love your recipe on Baklava even though I might not try it as it’s easier and cheaper for me to get it from the corner Greek bakery shop 2 block away from my home. I’m living in Melbourne by the way, but originally from Jakarta. Keep up the good work, really amazed by the quality of your blog and pictures.
