SEAToday.com, Jakarta - Kuliner Indonesia terkenal dengan cita rasanya yang enak dan beragam. Tidak heran, banyak orang termasuk wisatawan mancanegara yang penasaran dengan kuliner Indonesia.

Bahkan, kuliner Indonesia tidak hanya di restoran, tetapi juga di kaki lima yang tidak kalah enaknya. Setiap daerah di Indonesia pun memiliki kuliner khasnya masing-masing.

Oleh karena itu, tidak heran jika beberapa kuliner Indonesia masuk dalam daftar makanan terbaik dunia. Seperti pempek dan siomay yang belum lama ini masuk dalam daftar jajanan kaki lima terenak di dunia.

Pada 15 Agustus 2024, TasteAtlas baru saja merilis daftar makanan kaki lima terenak di dunia. Dalam daftar 'Top 100 Street Foods in the World', siomay menjadi urutan puncak daftar tersebut.

"Siomay merupakan jajanan khas Indonesia yang dikukus dan bentuknya seperti dimsum isi daging ikan, telur, kentang, kol, tahu dan pare. Setelah semuanya dikukus, siomay dipotong-potong dan disajikan dengan saus kacang serta kecap dan saus sambal,"tulis TasteAtlas.

Selain itu, ditulis juga bahwa siomay yang kita makan terinspirasi dari shumai ala China, yang dibawa imigran asal China saat zaman kolonial Belanda.

Tidak hanya siomay, jajanan asal Palembang yakni pempek juga masuk dalam daftar tersebut. Pempek berada dalam urutan ke empat jajanan kaki lima terenak di dunia.

Pempek sendiri merupakan makanan berbahan dasar ikan tenggiri yang dicampur dengan sagu dan tepung. Pempek tercipta karena awalnya banyak warga Palembang yang bosan dengan olahan ikan yang itu-itu saja, sehingga akhirnya mereka mulai mengolah ikan menjadi camilan yang disebut pempek.

"Pempek dikenal sebagai camilan yang enak dan sekarang dianggap sebagai warisan kuliner Indonesia. Biasanya pempek dikukus dulu sebelum digoreng sampai garing," tulis TasteAtlas.

Sementara itu, dalam top 15 ada batagor dari Indonesia yang menempati posisi ke-15 jajanan kaki lima terenak di dunia.

Daftar 10 besar 'Top 100 Street Foods in the World' versi TasteAtlas:

  1. Siomay, Indonesia
  2. Pastel de nata, Portugal
  3. Guotie, China
  4. Pempek, Indonesia
