Things to know about Sambal Andaliman Recipe.

Indonesians are quite popular worldwide for their spicy cuisine. One type of condiment, in particular, stands out from the others. Sambal is a type of Indonesian chili sauce, usually consisting of chili peppers (Cabai Rawit/Bird’s Eye chili pepper), oils, and other regional ingredients. Sambal is arguably the most variational Indonesian traditional food, with every region in Indonesia having its variant of Sambal.

Historically, Sambal was invented during the colonization of Indonesia, during which Sambal was not as popular as it is today. The exact origin of Sambal is unknown, but it was due to the Portuguese and Dutch bringing the plant to Indonesia (Dutch East Indies back then) that Sambal started to grow and spread throughout the country.

The Andaliman Pepper (also known as Merica Batak) is a distant relative of the famous Sichuan Pepper in China. Internationally, the Andaliman Pepper is known as the Indonesian Lemon Pepper because of its distinct scent that resembles a lemon. Like Sichuan Pepper, Andaliman Pepper will provide a mouth-numbing sensation when eaten.

These unique properties of the Andaliman Pepper are what the Bataknese people love, so they created their own Sambal variant using the pepper. Known as Sambal Andaliman, it is a staple in all Bataknese Cuisine.

Combining the heat from green chili peppers and the numbing sensation of the Andaliman Peppers, this is not for the faint-hearted, as this will be painfully addicting. If you want to spice up your cooking, this Sambal is the one for you!
