The purpose
of this article is to follow up on the experimental
course the school previously held, organize the
cooking processes of traditional dishes as well as
conversations with the chef into a written report,
and so duly record the content of the experimental
course and the interaction between students and
interviewee.
The Truku
have many gourmet dishes, many of which are baked or
soup dishes, so that the original flavors of the
ingredients may be fully enjoyed. At festive rituals
or weddings and funerals, the Truku make and share
with each other bamboo rice, banana rice, and mochi.
Nowadays, aside from traditionally used ingredients,
Truku people also incorporative innovative
ingredients and cooking techniques into their
cuisine, such as frying battered foods, adding dried
anchovies, and etc., in order to make Truku gourmet
food more acceptable to a wider audience.
Most of the
students at our school are Truku children, so our
teachers designed a mid-grade experimental course
for us that was to be conducted during club activity
hours and flexible teaching hours, a course that
consisted of a systematic introduction to the
traditional foods and tribal plants of the Truku.
Aside from letting us get to know the different
varieties of Truku food through the internet or
other research material, our teachers even invited
the cooking experts of the community to come to our
school, teach us their skills, and let us try our
hands at making tasty traditional food, an activity
that was both appetizing and fun. The moms of our
community are not only great cooks, but had answers
to all the questions we had, and we came away with
full stomachs and enriched experience.
The Truku
delicacies the moms of the community taught us are
tasty but simple to make, so come along and try them
out for yourselves!
