MALANG, HARIAN DISWAY – The chilly evenings in the heart of Malang provide the perfect setting for a warm and comforting beverage. For those in search of an authentic experience, homemade angsle and ronde are delightful choices. At Angsle Ronde Pak Mat Mawar, you can tease your taste buds with two traditional beverages that offer warmth and comfort.
Angsle delights the palate with its sweet and mildly savory essence, achieved by blending rich and creamy coconut milk. Ronde, a local favorite, is renowned for its delightful combination of mild spiciness and the sweetness of ginger infusion. Angsle soup is typically crafted from aromatic spices, prominently featuring ginger and pandan leaves, believed to have health-enhancing properties. Not only is there a contrast in flavors, but the soup colors are significantly different. Wedang angsle (angsle soup) maintains a deep white hue reminiscent of coconut milk, while ronde boasts a warm light brown color. These contrasting flavor profiles reflect the culinary diversity that thrives in Malang.
