HOW BUDU IS MADE?

Most people did not know how Budu was made. The uniqueness taste of budu is traditionally made by mixing anchovy and salt and allows it to ferment for a few months. Here are some steps for making a delicious Budu:

1.       First of all, you will need 1kg of anchovies, coarse salt to taste, brown sugar and a handful of tamarinds as additional taste.

2.       The first step that you need to do is clean the anchovies and dry it well. This is to ensure the taste of Budu as you need to wash the fish as clean as you can.  Next, divide salt into five section and sprinkle the first part flat in the container. For the better result, use former pottery or porcelain.

3.        Mix the anchovies with tamarind juice until it is smooth and divide into 4 parts.

4.       Enter brown sugar and mix well. Garnish with the anchovies in the last layer of salt in the container. Then sprinkle a layer of salt again on the anchovies too. Create a layer and finally a layer of salt.

5.       Cover the surface of the container with gauze. Let the fabric tense on the surface of the container. Before you close the bottle, sprinkle the salt first to prevent flies. Then cover the container with the lid tightly.

6.       Store in a dark place for a few month or at least 1 month until it shattered. Do not expose to light or air because it could make the Budu damaged. Don’t forget to observe the result occasionally.
