Savory Kepel Khas Klaten, a Legendary Snack that Still Exists

On
Of the many takjil culinary delights that circulate during Ramadan, Kepel is one of the most popular among Klaten people. This flour-based preparation with a mixture of spices sells well when it's time to break the fast.

Kepel

If interpreted in terms of language, kepel or kepelan means grip, this is because the process of making kepel is clenched in the palm of your hand. This snack is very easy to find throughout Klaten Regency.
But launching from the Central Java Provincial Government page, the original maker came from residents of Keden Village, Pedan District, Klaten. It is known that this legendary snack has been around since the 1970s.

Ingredients for Making Kepel


Kepel is made from wheat flour, which is added with onions, salt, water and then kneaded and fried. This simple food has a savory and crunchy taste that is loved by many people.

In the past, kepel makers used to mix cow offal, such as tripe, but this is no longer done. Generally, kepel snacks are favored by children because they are sold in elementary school areas.

Reporting from the same source, the Head of Keden Village hopes that the younger generation can make modifications to the kepel food so that it can be more widely accepted by the community.
