Things to know about Rawon Surabaya Recipe

The Indonesian Traditional Black Meat Soup is known as “Rawon” locally. It is a unique beef stew dish with a black-colored broth. Rawon originated from the East Javanese region of Indonesia, in Surabaya.

This dish is recently nominated as the best soup dish in Asia. In the past, Rawon Surabaya was considered a peasant dish, but due to its popularity, the royalties took an interest in it and enjoyed the dish.

The dark color of the broth comes from a special spice used in this dish, called keluak (kluwak), the Indonesian Black Nut. When eaten raw, Kluwak is highly toxic and must be fermented before use.

This spice is then dried and ground together with various spices to create the earthy, sour taste of the broth. This dish is amazing when eaten during cold weather, as it gives a warm feeling to your body from the heat of ginger and chili. This is a dish you would not want to miss!
