ABOUT JAVANESSE SPICES

Javanese Spices,
Living In Our Memory

Spices from Java have helped shape the taste of world cuisine, from Indian to European cuisine. Spices from Java became the target of European nations, triggering large expeditions such as those carried out by the Portuguese and the Dutch. In the past, a bowl of nutmeg or cloves could be worth 3 gold. During the Majapahit and Singasari Kingdoms, Java became a cosmopolitan maritime trade center. Spices were not only a trading commodity, but also a symbol of power and prosperity. Port cities such as Surabaya, Semarang, and Banten were once strategic trading points for spices such as cloves, nutmeg, and pepper.


Javanese spices have rich essential oil. Ginger : gingerol, provides a warming taste, popular for beverage and seasoning. Turmeric : curcumin, provides color and antioxidant properties; widely uses in culinary and herbal medicine. Galangal : aromatic compound galangin, used for a fresh and spicy flavor profile. Coriander : linalool, warm aroma, adds complexity to base spices. Lemongrass : citronellal, citrus aroma, for cooking and spiced beverage.
