A small advice on first time jantung pisang cooks, add a pinch of salt in the water; not only does it speed up the boiling, it adds a little bit of taste to your jantung pisang too. 2. Rice, rice - so bloody expensive these days. Blame should be on the Agriculture Department for not working hand-in-hand with the Meteorology Department (to look for weather trends) & NGOs (I'm sure there's a lot out there looking at Environmental Impacts). Anyway, maybe we should try this little mix I found whilst vacationing in South Korea so many donkey years ago. Mix the rice with barley, its gonna taste funky at first, but you know the barley has a bit of lemak (that's why the joke about 'barley juak' being likened to err... male discharges) and then the whatever rice that you have now in the market happens to not have so much lemak or stickiness to it. To make it all fragrant, add 2-3 knots of pandan leave, voila rice expenditure savings. Btw, barley not so expensive right? :) 1.

I always love to eat Jantung Pisang.Usually I cooked the jantung pisang with salted fish, add cili padi and a lilttle bit coconut milk..Fuhh!! 2 bowls of rice won't be enough. If i were Bihye, i will rebus the jantung pisang first. Don't forget to add salt too. It won't taste bitter after. First time in ur nyummy2 food blog.

Maybe that is why I refuse to eat anything banana except goreng pisang :-) When I was in primary school my school mates fed me stories of banana flower/tree/fruit ghost.
