_{Aceh's signature roasted pulut}

Roasted Pulut is a traditional snack from the Aceh region that is commonly consumed by all Acehnese people. This snack is made from glutinous rice or commonly known as pulut rice. Usually pulut panggang is used as a snack in the morning or afternoon, as a complementary food when drinking coffee or tea.

At certain times, Acehnese also enjoy the roasted pulut with tapai made from rice, or glutinous rice. The combination of tapai and roasted pulut produces a distinctive and addictive flavour on the tongue.

In addition, roasted pulut is also often enjoyed with durian fruit. The savoury taste of the roasted pulut mixed with the fat and sweet taste of the durian fruit, is a very "matching" combination, so it does not make eneg when eating durian fruit. For the people of Aceh, enjoying durian fruit with roasted pulut is a fun and delicious way.

Roasted pulut is also very affordable and easy to find, because many sell it. The price of 1 pcs of roasted pulut is only IDR 1K or when converted is equivalent to 0.4 STEEM

The ingredients for making baked pulut typical of Aceh are:

1. Glutinous rice
2. Thick coconut milk
3. Sugar and salt to taste
4. Banana leaves and sticks

_{Roasted pulut is my favourite Acehnese snack}

It's easy to make and the ingredients used are also easy to find. This roasted pulut snack is also one of my favourites, although there are many contemporary snacks that are viral in the market, but for me traditional snacks always have a special place because the taste is always unique in its simplicity.
that is unpretentious.

So that's my sharing about one of the typical snacks from the Aceh region, Indonesia which is very familiar throughout the Acehnese community. May the traditional snack pulut panggang continue to exist and not be eroded by contemporary snacks.

See you soon my dear friend steemians!!!
