Article about BAKSO
Bakso or baso is
an Indonesian meatball, or
a meat paste made from beef surimi. Its
texture is similar to the Chinese beef ball, fish ball,
or pork ball.
The word bakso may refer to a single meatball or the complete dish of
meatball soup. Mie bakso refers to bakso served with yellow noodles
and rice vermicelli, while bakso kuah refers to bakso soup served
without noodles.
Bakso can
be found all across Indonesia, from street vendors to high-class restaurants.
Along with soto, satay,
and siomay, bakso is
one of the most popular street foods in Indonesia.Today, various types of
ready-to-cook bakso are also available as frozen foods sold
in supermarkets in
Indonesia.
Bakso is
commonly made from finely ground beef with a small quantity of tapioca flour and salt, however bakso can
also be made from other ingredients, such as chicken, pork, fish or
shrimp.Unlike other meatball recipes, bakso has a consistent firm, dense,
homogeneous texture due to the polymerization of myosin in
the beef surimi.
As

observes halal dietary
law, generally bakso is made from beef, chicken or the mixture of
beef with chicken. While in non-Muslim majority areas, such as in
Chinatowns in major cities and Hindu majority island of Bali,
pork bakso might be found.
Traditionally
the beef surimi paste or dough is made into balls using hands and boiled in hot
water right away. After the meat are done, the meatballs are floating on
boiling water, collected and being dried, stored or refrigerated for further
use. Bunch of pre-cooked bakso are usually displayed in the window of
a street vendor cart, and will be boiled in hot water per customer order, prior
of serving.

vermicelli), salted vegetables, tofu, egg (wrapped within
bakso), Chinese green
cabbage, bean sprout, siomay or

Conditional IF I Need You
If the stars do not give instructions
To meet
For up to you
Suppose if you did not help me
To find yourself
The figure of true love
But now you leave me
Come closer to me
As our time together first
Go back to my arms
As our time together first

I will not be able to live my life
But now you leave me
