Siomay, a popular Indonesian street food, traces its origin back to the influence of Chinese immigration in Indonesia. This delicacy has been tailored to suit the Indonesian palate by giving it a distinctly local twist – the use of peanut sauce instead of vinegar dipping sauce, typical of Chinese-style dumplings. The name "Siomay" itself is derived from "Shumai" or "Shaomai", a type of traditional Chinese dumpling. Known for its delightful blend of flavors, Siomay offers a culinary exploration that beautifully represents the harmonious multicultural influence in Indonesian cuisine.
