Dodol Labu Sarawak (Pumpkin Dodol)

 Sarawak has many varieties of dodol which are very unique to the state.... Pumpkin Dodol is one of the many famous Sarawak Dodol like Durian Dodol, Red Beans Dodol, Green Beans Dodol, Cucumber Dodol, Tapioca Dodol, Sweet Potato Dodol, etcs. I feel so lucky to be married to Sarawakian and been in this land to treasure all the delicious heritage.... My MIL and relatives have the best recipes of all and very generous to teach me.

Making dodol traditionally is very time consuming process. It takes hours of stirring until the mixture becomes oily and non-sticky. During the cooking process, the dodol mixture is rapidly boiling and spitting out hot steam and therefore need to use a long wooden spatula to avoid arm burning. After half way cooking process, the mixture get real thick and require strong man to do the stirring job. This is the reasons why dodol is treasured very much apart from the unforgettable taste.

In my case, I only made small portion and with the help from Noxxa, cooking time was cut to less than half. My lovely hubby was there to help too, doing the stirring job!

BAHASA MALAYSIA VERSION
Dodol asli Sarawak amat berbeda dari dodol di Sememenanjung Malaysia. Ia nya di pelbagaikan dengan campuran sayur2an. Dodol labu adalah salah satu dodol yg amat terkenal dan di jamu setiap kali musim perayaan. Banyak lagi dodol yg sedap2 seperti Dodol Kacang Merah, Dodol Kacang Hijau, Dodol Durian, Dodol Timun, Dodol Ubikayu, Dodol Keledek, dll. Kesemua nya sedap2 belaka dgn keenakan yg amat istimewa.

Along pun tak mau ketinggalan belajar buat dodol. Untung nya bersuamikan org Sarawak yg kaya dgn ilmu2 masakan yg unik dan tersendiri. MIL dan sedara hubby yg ajarkan Along buat dodol ni. Tiada sukatan yg tepat sebab orang kampung buat memang main agak2 je. Kalau sukat pun guna gelas tapi Along agak2 je pun jadi. Resipi ni guna labu lebih banyak dari tepung dan sebab tu amat sedap sekali.

Kalau dulu, nak kacau dodol berjam2 lama nya tapi sekarang amat mudah jika anda memiliki periuk Noxxa. Along dapat idea nak guna periuk Noxxa nak buat dodol selepas tengok Zana buat dodol dia hari tu kat sini. TQ ya Zana tolong ajarkan cara nak guna periuk Noxxa tu. TQ juga hubby tersayang yg tolong kacaukan sehingga siap!
