Kencur, or Lesser Galangal, is a unique rhizome with a highly aromatic and distinct flavor profile that sets it apart from ginger or regular galangal. It has a pungent, earthy taste with camphorous and slightly peppery notes. It is an indispensable ingredient in Indonesian cuisine, particularly for "jamu" (herbal tonics) and specific dishes like "seblak" and "urap." Its unique aroma is key to achieving an authentic taste. We supply fresh, high-quality rhizomes.

Unique and Fragrant: Aromatic Kencur is a key ingredient in many Indonesian dishes, and it can be hard to find fresh. This was of excellent quality. Very fragrant and had that unique, peppery-camphor flavor. A must-have for authentic cuisine.
