Hot Tips
Indonesian meals
There's an art to eating an Indonesian meal. It all starts with rice and then you add small amounts of curries and other dishes like sambals and pickles to add an extra bit of heat or a burst of sour crunch. Its fun to eat with your hands - use your right hand or a spoon and fork. If you've been invited to an Indonesian home, come hungry - Indonesians are incredibly generous.

An unusually shaped grain, a little like a diamond in shape. It is not a cereal but a broad-leafed leguminous plant. Buckwheat is used ground for Japanese soba (buckwheat noodles) and in many European cultures.
