Things to know about Sayur Lodeh Recipe

Sayur Lodeh or Jangan Lodeh in the local Javanese language is a vegetable soup originating from Java Island, especially from the Central Region of Java. This dish is a modification of the Sayur Asem from West Java, where the Central Javanese disregarded the use of Tamarind in the dish and opted for coconut milk instead. The vegetable used is very similar to their West Javanese counterpart, chayote, long beans, and corn.

During the year 1931, when the black plague infested the region of Yogyakarta for the last two decades, the Sultan of Yogyakarta ordered his people to stay at home and cook sayur lodeh for 49 days.

This dish is commonly cooked during the crisis that often ensued in the region of Central Java due to the activity of Mount Merapi since the early 10th century. There are several variants of Sayur Lodeh in Central Java, the white-colored broth and the yellowish-red color of the broth from the use of different spices. Either way, you would not want to miss out on trying this dish!
