Don't we, ahem, most of us, just love sambal?

Most Malaysians love sambal. We say most because we know not all Malaysians like food that is too hot & spicy. Some people would say that these people are not Malaysians but some Mat Saleh celup or something like that, but let's not be judgmental. We all have our own preferences, which make each of us unique :) 

According to Wikipedia, apparently the word 'sambal' is an Indonesian loan-word of Javanese origin, which is 'sambel'. And all this while we thought that sambal was conceived by our ancestors in Malaya back then. Okay, don't get upset. You know you can't take every information derived from Wikipedia at face value. Sometimes, you have to do a little digging that is not based on online information. Better ask your grandma or your great aunt. They probably have more information as to where sambal originated from.

Nowadays, most of us use a blender to mix all the sambal ingredients. But do you still recall the time when your mother, or your grandmother would use the pestle and mortar to ground the chilies, shrimp paste, garlic and whatever else required? Ah, those were the days. But, surprisingly enough, there are still households that use the good ol' pestle and mortar to ground sambal ingredients. 

Well, we at MCM want to save you the hassle of making sambal from scratch. We have a product called MCM Sambal Sauce. You don't need a blender or a pestle and mortar to make sambal anymore!
