Ramuan Dapur Nyonya



Penang Nyonya Kitchen celebrates the ingredients that make Nyonya cooking so popular, not only in Penang, but all over Malaysia and Singapore. Indeed, the love for Penang Nyonya cooking has extended further afield, to Sydney, Melbourne, London, New York City and made a full circle to appear in places such as Taipei and Shanghai.

On this page, we want to list all the food stuff that you find in a Nyonya kitchen. Of course, every nyonya will tell you that if you want to make the best dishes, you must get the freshest ingredients. Be the first in line at the market at the break of dawn to select the freshest fish, the freshest prawns, vegetables, and more. But as for spices and dry stuff with a longer shelf life, the secret is in getting the combination right. Also, the type of cooking pot plays a role. When preparing fish curry, some nyonyas swear by the Indian cooking pot - the bok keng, cooked over charcoal fire. It has to be a charcoal life - gas simply won't t bring out the aroma.

Though I never develop the skill for cooking, I certainly enjoyed the dishes prepared by my mother, and now my wife. Both are excellent cooks with demanding tastebuds - often dishes that I thought were go were simply so-so to them.

Within the context of the ingredients discussed, we look at the properties of each ingredients and any health benefits that it promotes. The information regarding health properties are based on information that I have come across. Naturally you should do more research of your own rather than depending wholesale on this information to verify its accuracy.
