traditional Indonesian crackers made of cattle skin
Krupuk kulit is a traditional Indonesian cattle skin krupuk (cracker). It is traditionally made from the soft inner skin of cattle which is diced and sun-dried until it hardens and loses most of its water content. The diced and dried skins are later fried in ample hot cooking oil until they expand similarly with bubbles and yield a crispy texture. This fried cattle skin is then sealed in vacuum plastic bags to ensure and prolong its crispiness.
