About Tempeh bacem

Tempeh Bacem is a traditional Indonesian dish made by marinating tempeh in a flavorful blend of palm sugar, garlic, shallots, tamarind, and spices before simmering and frying it to golden perfection. Originating in Java, this dish is known for its rich, sweet-savory taste and satisfying texture. Tempeh, the main ingredient, is a fermented soy product packed with plant-based protein, dietary fiber, and essential nutrients like iron and magnesium, making it a heart-healthy choice. The fermentation process also supports gut health by promoting beneficial microbes. While Tempeh Bacem is nutritious, its preparation often involves frying and significant amounts of sugar, which can increase its calorie content. For a lighter version, opting to grill or bake the tempeh after marinating can reduce excess oil while preserving its distinctive flavor. Tempeh Bacem is a delicious way to enjoy Indonesian cuisine with a balance of taste and wholesome benefits.
