About Jenang

Jenang is a traditional Indonesian dessert made primarily from rice flour, coconut milk, palm sugar, and other ingredients like fragrant pandan leaves for added aroma. Often likened to a smooth porridge or pudding, this dish is rich, creamy, and slightly sweet, with a velvety texture. Jenang is a staple in Javanese cuisine and commonly served during celebrations or as a comforting snack. It is naturally gluten-free and contains no artificial additives, making it a wholesome choice when enjoyed in moderation. The carbohydrates provide quick energy, while the coconut milk adds healthy fats that can support satiety. However, due to its high sugar content from ingredients like palm sugar, overconsumption may contribute to excess calorie intake. Pairing Jenang with fresh fruit or adjusting sweetness levels can enhance its health profile while still preserving its delightful taste.
