Kenyah tribe called it "Daun Bekai".
They used in cooking, similarly like Ajinomoto... First, they have to dried the leaves direct to sunlight. When it totally dried, they have to crush the leave into small particle. The dried leaves have to keep in the container so that the air won`t degrade its quality.Usually they mixed it with tapioca leaves and young bamboo shoot. Yummie..yummie....
Enti kitai Iban, dikumbai kitai "daun tubu". Nyadi daun tu dijembui ba mata panas sampai ia rangkai kering. Pengudah nya, daun tu disimpan dalam botol awaka ia tan lama. Kati chara nguna ia? Daun tubu tu tadi deka diancur ngena lesung sampai alus. Pengudah nya tau digulai dalam sayur daun ubi tauka tubu. Enti udah dicampur ngau daun tubu/bekai tu, dia daun ubi lebih agi lembut.

Sebandile blog,
ReplyDeleteEngka ia kini..tung kelalai(?). Pelaba aku, utai ti sama mina local name ia enda sama. Tapi tujuan daun tu sigi baka "ajinomoto" nya meh. Aku bulih info tu ari Ulu Baram. Kitai tu sempama baka sida missionary urang putih ari munya suba. Sida bejalai ngagai menua Asia, nyebarka pengarap kristian..dalam masa yg sama ngumpul daun utai, lebih kurang baka botanist nya meh.
Sebandile blog,

I have never heard of daun bekai nor used them in cooking? In my place we use "daun bungkang" in our cooking. Are they the same?
ReplyDeleteTo Robert Rizal,
ReplyDeleteYea..we used "daun bungkang" for cooking.
Based on my observation, it is not the same.
Thanks.
