00:00Kue Keranjang is one of the Kudapan served at the altar of prayer, when worshiping in Kelenteng or in the ethnic family of Tionghoa,
00:27during the celebration of Imlek or Chinese New Year.
00:31The high demand for round-shaped cakes made from sweet rice flour,
00:37made one of the makers of Kue Keranjang, Stefanus Yulianto, a flood of orders.
00:45When met at Ngemplak Simongan, Semarang City, on Thursday, January 16,
00:51Stefanus admitted that he had received an order a month before Imlek.
00:57In his production, Stefanus still uses traditional techniques to maintain taste and quality.
01:05The main key that plays a role is the use of charcoal in the cooking process.
01:13According to the man who has started the business of Kue Keranjang since 2008,
01:18charcoal gives a special aroma in his production.
01:24In one day, this place is able to produce about 500 kg of Kue Keranjang.
01:32There are four flavors available, namely vanilla, chocolate, frambos, and original.
01:39The price starts from 200,000 rupiah for 10 kg, and 420,000 rupiah for 15 kg.
01:56At first, I used gas, but the taste was a bit lacking.
02:01I tried using wood, and it turned out to be better.
02:05The aroma is also preserved.
02:10Kue Keranjang
02:15Kue Keranjang is not only a completion of worship at the altar of prayer during the celebration of Imlek.
02:22However, Kue Keranjang also retains a very deep philosophical meaning, namely in life.
02:30Humans must always do good and continue to strengthen brotherhood
02:35as an analogy of the sweet taste and sticky texture of Kue Keranjang.
02:41From Semarang, Central Java, Surya Wijaksono, Kantor Berita Antara, reported.
