Cendol











Cendol (pron.: /ˈtʃɛndɒl/) is a traditional dessert originating from Southeast Asia which is popular in Indonesia,[1] Malaysia,[2]Myanmar (where it is known as mont let saung , Singapore, Vietnam, and Thailand.

Etymology
There is popular belief in Indonesia that the name "cendol" is related to and originated from the word jendol; in Javanese, Sundaneseand Indonesian, it means "bump" or "bulge", in reference the sensation of drinking the green worm-like jelly. 

In Vietnam, it is called "bánh lt," or fall cake. Bánh lt is a common ingredient in a Vietnamese dessert called chè, or more commonly chè ba màu. 

In Thailand it is called lot chong (Thai: ลอดช่อง) which can be translated as "gone through a hole", indicating the way it is made by pressing the warm dough through a sieve in to a container with cold water.[3]

Ingredients
The dessert's basic ingredients are coconut milk, jelly noodles made from rice flour with green food coloring (usually derived from thepandan leaf), shaved ice and palm sugar. Other ingredients such as red beans, glutinous rice, grass jelly, creamed corn, might also be included.[4]
In Sunda, Indonesia, cendol is a dark-green pulpy dish of rice (or sago) flour worms with coconut milk and syrup of areca sugar. 

It used to be served without ice. In Javanese, cendol refers to the green jelly-like part of the beverage, while the combination of cendol, palm sugar and coconut milk is called dawet. The most famous variant of Javanese es dawet is from Banjarnegara, Central Java.
The affluence of Singapore, as well as Western influence, has given rise to different variations of cendol, such as cendol with vanilla ice-cream or topped with durian.[5]

Selling
Cendol has become a quintessential part of cuisine in Southeast Asia and is often sold by vendors at roadsides, hawker centresand food courts.[6] Cendol vendors are almost ubiquitous in Indonesian cities, especially Jakarta, Bandung, and Yogyakarta. Originally cendol or dawet in Java was served without ice, however after the introduction of refrigeration technology, the cold cendolwith shaved ice (es serut) was available and widely popular. 

It is possible that each country developed its own recipes once ice became readily available. This explains why it is most popular in Malayan port cities such as Malacca, Penang and Kuala Lumpurwhere British refrigerated ships' technology would provide the required ice.
In Indonesia and Malaysia, cendol is commonly sold on the roadside by vendors. It is even dessert fare in Singapore, found in dessert stalls, food centres, coffee shops and food courts.[6]

Ais kacang

















Ais kacang is a Malaysian dessert which is also common in Singapore and Brunei.[1] Traditionally a special ice machine[2] is used to churn out the shaved ice used in the dessert, originally hand cranked but now more often motorized.
Formerly, it was made of only shaved ice and red beans, though the number and diversity of ingredients has since expanded.[3]

Today, ais kacang generally comes in bright colours, and with different fruit cocktails and dressings. In Malaysia, almost all variants now contain a large serving of attap chee (palm seed), red beans, sweet corn, grass jelly and cubes of agar agar as common ingredients. Other less-common ingredients include aloe vera, cendol, nata de coco, or ice cream

A final topping of evaporated milk, condensed milk, or coconut milk is drizzled over the mountain of ice along with red rose syrup and sarsi syrup. Some stalls have even introduced novelty toppings such as durian, chocolate syrup and ice cream. There are also versions that shun the multi-coloured syrup and are served with just a drizzling of gula melaka syrup instead.

Many Southeast Asian coffee shops, hawker centres, and food courts offer this dessert. Nowadays, ais kacang is mostly known as 'ABC' (acronym for Ais Batu Campur, literally meaning "mixed Ice").

Kueh kochi

For the Eurasians in Malaysia and Singapore, this snack is often sold at funerals. The black colour of the unpolished rice symbolises death, while the sweet filling represents resurrection.
