07 May Lanuuri: Your Passport to the Delicious World of Malaysian Kuih
Introduction
Malaysia is a culinary paradise, where a symphony of flavors explodes with every bite. Beyond the vibrant curries, spicy sambals, and savory noodle dishes lies a sweet world of traditional desserts known as kuih. These colorful, bite-sized treats are steeped in history, symbolism, and a whole lot of deliciousness. Lanuuri, a company with a passion for preserving tradition, brings the authentic flavors of Malaysian kuih to your kitchen with ease and convenience.
What is Kuih?
Kuih is an umbrella term for a vast array of sweet and savory snacks, cakes, and desserts in Malaysian cuisine. They come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and textures. Some are steamed, others baked, fried, or grilled. Ingredients often include glutinous rice flour, coconut milk, pandan leaves, palm sugar (gula melaka), bananas, sweet potatoes, and a variety of spices. Kuih are an integral part of Malaysian celebrations, festivals, and everyday life, enjoyed as sweet treats, afternoon snacks, or even breakfast.
