Assalamualaikum wr. wb.
Hii guys! Meet again with us (colleger) that this time will be discusses in english version.
Straight to our discussion, namely tempeh. Hearing the words immediately imagined it would have been all in a name of Indonesian food. Yupz tempeh is one ingredient "4 healthy 5 perfect" where many Indonesian people are not familiar about this flavor of tempeh.
Many foods are created from tempeh like fried tempeh, tempeh mendoan, oncom, tempeh bacem and others. Here's the explanation:

Tempeh is a traditional soy product originally from Indonesia. It is made by a natural culturing and controlled fermentation process that binds soybeans into a cake form, similar to a very firm vegetarian burger patty. Tempeh is unique among major traditional soy foods in that it is the only one that did not originate in the Sinosphere.
It originated in today's Indonesia, and is especially popular on the island of Java, where it is a staple source of protein. Like tofu, tempeh is made from soybeans, but it is a whole soybean product with different nutritional characteristics and textural qualities. Tempeh's fermentation process and its retention of the whole bean give it a higher content of protein, dietary fiber, and vitamins. It has a firm texture and an earthy flavor which becomes more pronounced as it ages. Because of its nutritional value, tempeh is used worldwide in vegetarian cuisine.

TEMPEH MENDOAN

Mendoan tempeh served in hot conditions along with cayenne pepper or soy sauce . Mendoan tempeh can be eaten as a side dish or snack to accompany a drink of tea or coffee while relaxing.
Mendoan tempeh can be found in stalls traditional in the former residency of Banyumas and Tegal . For Banyumas, travelers buy souvenirs in the tempe mendoan Sawangan, Navan, which is central to snacks typical Navan .
Sense of the "unique" makes this spread to other regions of Banyumas. Tempe mendoan can be found in the big cities of Central Java, even to Jakarta.
In other cities in Central Java such as in Semarang , mendoan more referring to the fried tempeh flour, or in another area called tempe kemul , where tempeh is only a very thin slices. It is a bit ambiguous, especially for migrants from Central Java to the west. Mendoan different purwokerto mendoan of several cities in Central Java region, more pronounced wet oil.
