Tahu and tempe, as explained earlier are soy bean curd (or tofu) and fermented soy bean cake respectively, rich in proteins and very good for vegetarian menu. These are frequently used in all sorts of (vegetable) dishes. You may remember that we like our food fried and both tahu and tempe are often fried and eaten as a snack with a few fresh green and very spicy chillies (cabe). A very tasty variety of tempe is tempek busuk. That may sound interesting, but it simply mean tempe that has exceeded its shelf life. Fortunately the extra fermentation gives it a very nice taste, perfectly suited for a vegetable dish called sayur lodeh. Don't worry about intestinal problems; tempe busuk will not cause any of those.
