Budu oh Budu…..

This is what I’ve ended up eating after a week of luxurious food….cencaru bakar cicoh budu !!! Coming from the east cost, budu is the number one in my list of favorite sauces. The salty, sourish & spicy/hot taste blends very well with any other dishes especially ikan masak singgang….pergghhhhh !

Anyway not many people eat budu especially those coming from the west coast. Cant blame them as the physical look & smell can be quite deceiving.

Did you all know that budu is a very nutritional food? I’ve done some research in the net & would like to share my findings with you guys. I hope this could anyhow encourage people to add budu into their daily menu.

Below are some of the nutritional facts about this magic sauce called budu :
