Kue Putu

Kue putu, lezat cita rasa Indonesia 😋

Kue Putu merupakan salah satu kuliner asli Indonesia. Kue basah ini disajikan dalam bentuk gulungan (tabung) yang di dalamnya diisi gula merah. Rasanya sudah jelas enak, manis, dan lembut saat dikunyah. Makan sepotong pasti dijamin nambah lagi (ini mah curhatan si penulis saja 😅 hehehe).

Kue putu berbahan dasar tepung beras dan dicampur sedikit tepung ketan ditambah parutan kelapa. Bahan-bahan tersebut dicampur dan diaduk rata, dimasukan ke dalam cetakan khusus yang terbuat dari bambu biar lebih natural. Selain bahan-bahan tersebut, tidak lupa diisi juga gula merah di bagian tengahnya. Setelah itu dimasak dengan cara di taruh di atas uap yang dihasilkan dari sebuah pemanas. Kue putu matang setelah dipanaskan kurang lebih selama satu sampai dua menit. Setelah itu siap disajikan dengan parutan kelapa dan seres di atasnya. Nah, di bawah ini beberapa foto yang diambil pas ketemu pedagang kue putu tadi siang.

Dari sumber yang saya baca, ternyata kue putu sudah ada sejak penjajahan Belanda di Indonesia. Biasanya kue ini dibuat dan disantap saat sore menjelang malam. Penyajiannya akan lebih nikmat jika disantap bersama dengan susu hangat.

Ada satu hal yang masih mengganjal di pikiran saya. Kenapa namanya kue putu? Dari hasil wawancara beberapa teman dan google juga, nama kue putu belum jelas datangnya dari mana. Jika dilihat dari bahasa Jawa, putu diartikan sebagai cucu, tapi apa hubungannya dengan kue ini? Apa karena bentuknya imut dan lembut seperti cucu? Hahahaha, saya belum paham. Besok, kalau saya ketemu lagi sama penjualnya, pasti akan saya tanya.

Jika ada dari kalian, oh pembaca yang budiman, tahu akan sejarah nama kue putu tolong dishare ya. Terima kasih. 👍

The Quotes from "Auggie & Me (Three Wonder Stories)"

Book Tittle [Augie & Me : Three Wonder Stories] Author [R.J. Palacio] Publisher [Alfred A. Knopf, New York] This book is kind of the serie of the first book "Wonder". In this serie Palacio tells us the stories of Auggie Pullman (as the main character) from three different character's prespective. The first chapter is about Julian as Auggie's friend that difficultly accepts Auggie at the Beecher Prep middle school. The second chapter is about Chirstopher as Auggie's oldest friend that studies in different school. And the last chapter tells us about Charlotte as Auggie's welcome buddy at school. This book could tell us the age of middle school kids. How do they socialize, interact, their stage, activities, teenange problems,  friendshipness, encourage to do kindness, and so on. I think this book is recommended to parents and teachers even the teenanger who have or teach and role as a middle school kid. In this article I focused on the quotes that ...

Math Week Event

Students, teachers, and parents were involved to this event. Math week event was held to build the sense of Math to us.

One of the activity was Math Game. Math teachers provided some math games for the students. Students reviewed or learned math by doing the game.
