I found the cure for mouth ulcer
My recent love affair with budu has nothing to do with global warming or endemic political turmoil that has no end. I am dedicating this special entry to this special product from the sea because recently I discovered after intensively consuming budu without fail for weeks, my mouth ulcer cured faster than ever. That was possibly a coincidence but it worth some further scientific exploration. If I could I would educate myself further in this unique kampung culinary and would love to delve deeper into the secret lives of this fermented anchovy to reveal the secret.
Coincidentally, Budu is high in protein and uric acid content so naturally it is not recommended for people with gout problem.
To the keropok lekor nation’s perspective, this fermented fish broth is not just a condiment to amplify one’s taste bud or a complimentary accessories to an elaborate traditional dishes to impress the moody mother-in-law. It is a civilization. Probably the evolution of mankind started with this simple dish but yet so satisfying. This blissful side dish is part of collective history that bring friends and families together.
For some, budu is simply part of their life. For them having nasi without budu is just like having a blind date with a blind. It’s another fine art to appreciate life.

>I put budu+cili padi in my curry maggi way back in 1997, zaman sekolah MARA.. sedappp!!!
December 20, 2010 at 10:16 pm
>bestnya tengok budu..saya suka letak mangga muda cincang halus dlm budu…
December 20, 2010 at 10:57 pm
>Dr Sam..This reminds me to my friend, from non-keropok lekor nation, he eats budu with almost everything….Nasi lemak with budu, nasi minyak with budu, nasi ayam with budu. Even goreng pisang pun cicah with budu!…hehePS: Think you should propose a research la dr sam, whether budu can really cure mouth ulcer…who knows..if it really does;)
December 20, 2010 at 11:51 pm
>one of the best "cicah2" gravy!
December 21, 2010 at 12:20 am
>dulu-dulu catz tak reti makan budu..tapi dah banyak jalan-jalan, belejar+kerja bercampur org, plus i really enjoy pantai timur food (nasi kerabu etc), lidah dah suka jugok dgn budu..tgk gambar tuh kecur lah DrSam pepagi ni..letak mangga muda..oh..teringat nasik ulam cikgu di kota baru.:)
December 21, 2010 at 1:03 am
>Salam:)Pernah suatu ketika mendgr kata2 Pak Ungku Aziz..beliau suka budu!!Rasa bangga jap…sbb org sini pun suka!!ops!:)
December 21, 2010 at 1:33 am
>Dr.Sam,Budu cap ketereh selalu ada di dapur emak saya. Suka makan budu dengan ikan singgang juga.Sedapnyaaaaaa
December 21, 2010 at 1:42 am
>saya kehilangan identiti melayu sbb tak mkn budu belacan cincaluk, kicap tamin saya suka ler π
December 21, 2010 at 2:33 am
>Salam Dr SamYes you gotta love Budu … with beta-carotene (red palm) oil, its my favourite seasoning for salads.But a quick cure for mouth ulcers?? With that diet, never got any since! For me, it must be the prevention.But the cure I have for mouth ulcers before budu days is a few drops of hydrogen peroxide (6% v/v strength at most pharmacies) on the ulcer every 6 hours and the ulcer's gone in 24 hours!BTW, I chew chilli padi in the raw so the stinging of H2O2 on the ulcers/open sores is nothing to me. Do enjoy trying out this remedy!
December 21, 2010 at 3:27 am
>cik lurpak,Brilliang! that was a very creative way of diversifying the consumption of budu. You should write to Maggie manufacturer and recommend them to come out with a new budu-flavored-maggie π How about than?anntaj,budu ni boleh dikira macam SKII ala kampung le kot. makan budu kulit jadi putih melepak… Sebab tu saya rasa orang Kelate dan Ganukite putih-putih melepak (keculi yang turun kelaut hitam menawan le sket)…betul ke?
December 21, 2010 at 3:42 am
>Afida annuar,Hebat…hebat…another good idea. Probably we should alleviate budu status into a more trendy food condiment and enter into high street eateries, michelin star or boutique restaurants. Imagine if budu was to be served in our Malaysian airliners…ada kelas gitu.ps: I have been thinking the same as well. But some researchers in our local universities have already indulged themselves in the secret lives of budu. I am more concern into the properties of budu that can possibly cure bigmouth-disease among my colleagues for example.
December 21, 2010 at 3:44 am
>aliaaroslan,have to agree with you :)catz,nasi kerabu jangan sebut pagi-pagi ni catz…tu lagi kecur…aliff muhammad,apa-apa pong…budu cap ketereh juga yang sedap…apa rahsia dia ye?
December 21, 2010 at 3:48 am
>Pn kartini,Salam pn. kalau dah sedap dan suka tu, tak kira bangsa, agama, dan keturunan. Saya percaya, kalau mat saleh suka makan budu pasti lembut lidoh dan deme buleh kecek kelatae sebutir-sebutir π maksu,Tak Melayu hiland di budu Mak su π

>Red Alfa,Salam kanda RA. thanks for the tip on mouth ulcer. I have to tabik spring you for enduring the pain with chili padi and yet at the same time still have pleasure to enjoy budu. No wonder you have a very nice lips – the bleaching effect of H202 is surely very obvious (Need clarification with Kanda Zen though :)have a nice day!
December 21, 2010 at 4:34 am
>Me? I prefer tempoyak instead..heh
December 21, 2010 at 4:44 am
>I cannot la dengan budu. cicah sket dh mcm loya. hehehe… Anyway, if i kena ulser, i just letak asam boi kat tempat ulser tu. pedih la sekejap..but sembuh cepat.
December 21, 2010 at 5:05 am
>Dinda, I can attest to kanda RA's love affairs with the budu, H2O2, cili padi. Currently also include yogurt, shandong groundnuts, kari kambing(as if you don't know hehe).But as to his lips, check this out *winks*http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hdq5KIc-PU&feature=related
December 21, 2010 at 5:33 am
>salam Dr.cukup dgn budu dan cili api sebagai 'lauk' saya mampu menghabiskan nasi panas 2,3 pinggan. tapi itu dulu, sekarang tpaksa kawal sbb boleh menyebabkan saya resdung, gatal2 badan & sukar kawal diabetic diet. caranya mudah saja. "pantang jumpa." jangan simpan stok budu atau makan budu di depan saya. kalau jumpa, memang saya bedal cukup2.p/s- kat pasar payang saya baru terjumpa budu dlm botol kecil cap terung. sedap sgt rasanya.

>I used to be given some 1-3 kg of anchovies for helping fishermen downloading their fishes from the boat back in 1963 in Seberang Takir. I brought back the anchovies to my mum and she used them to make budu.Over time she has few tempayans/guris of budu.In 1964.. when we moved back to Pulau Duyong.. my mother used to sell "budu berekor (incompleted budu) and normal budu to kampung folk..That was my first brush with budu..I consumed when there are people who loved to consumed them .. I only missed budu when there is fresh ikan panggang.. sedak tu!!
December 21, 2010 at 6:26 am
>*drool*My Mother grills ikang pateng for tonight's dinner. Gotta eat that with budu!Anyway, does budu make the tongue of its eaters un-user friendly to English pronunciation?
December 21, 2010 at 7:45 am
>hehe…mungkin betul kot.. π baru2 ni saya gi tganu, best makan ikan singgang dgn budu tempayan…
December 21, 2010 at 1:29 pm
>budu.. tak leh masuk larugi satu nikmat dunia
December 21, 2010 at 2:33 pm
>Salam Doc,Hampir setahun dah tinggalkn pantai timur,but we always have continuous supply of Cap Keterah budu in our kitchen..Yes good source of protein makan ngan ikan goreng.My kids love it…
December 21, 2010 at 3:29 pm
>Budu?…i simply luv it! Mine would be the one served with lots of onion,cili api and lumau kasturi..plus tempoyak or durian = mother inlaw lalu blkg pon tak perasan! One big problem wirh budu is,it makes u eat more..and more…and more!!!!
December 22, 2010 at 1:45 am
>Mengingatkan seorag teman Indonesia yang pernah bermusafir lebih 18 tahun di Malaysia yang sangat mengilai BUDU…..
December 22, 2010 at 5:52 am
>pok,ehh doc..hehehe..kalo budu masuk dlm menu Malaysia airline harus2 harge budu di kelate n ganu naik mencanak2 sbb dh jadi international menu you..hehehe..
December 22, 2010 at 7:26 am
>ashley,I am still trying hard to figure out, what part of my palate needs to be switch on for tempoyak. Budu is on…belacan is on…cencalok still off too…SBB,No harm…citarasa masing-masing. having a sore mouth and eating something very salty is one experience. But I think it is not the salt that cure the sore mouth. Must be the preservatives (formaldehyde, Acids etc.). In budu case, I suspect all the friendly germs plays some roles as well.
December 22, 2010 at 7:32 am
>Zendra-Maria,Yes…forgot about the mouth-watering lamb curry. Hey…Shandong groundnuts is my favourite snack too. Pagoda. But after some blabering from my significant half on the litters from the empty kernels…I slow down the intake lately la…He…he…Cliff richard…piewahid,Salam sdr piewahid. Saya tak pernah beli budu sendiri sebab entah macaman stok dia tak pernah putus-putus. Ada aje.tapi bab tambah nasi bila ada budu tu memang tak dapat dinafikan. itu yang menjadi masalah besar sekarang ni. rungsing kita dibuatnya. dah le eksais tak seberapa. Camne ?
December 22, 2010 at 7:45 am
>Wan Sharif,1963 Seberang Takir must be a very scenic place Ayoh Wang. full of fishermen activities I guess. But now I hardly see any tempayan budu around anymore (last one was in my grandmother's house). Korea still store kimchi in many-many tempayans and we can still see their kimchi tempayans around. But budu tempayan, no more. Pity.Budu berekor? First taing ni dengor ayoh wang. Are you sure it was not berudu berekor :)The only person who is really deep in love with budu in my family is my father. Kalu ada jering jeruk atau jering hok tanang dalang tanoh tu, makang nasi panas cicoh denge budu pong jadi. Kelah…Sir Pok Deng,I know you and me must have been growing up with budu as part of our culture. some ganukite still cannot speaks the normal 'national language' as it should be speak correctly and people will instantly recognize the budu slang. I don't know about you :)Luckily the we don't smell budu.
December 22, 2010 at 7:56 am
>anntaj,saya dah lama tak makan budu original tempayan tu…sebab tu tengok kulit macam dah 'berkarat' sket :)besi,saya pun baru aje dapat masuk :)Memorable trais,did your liking to budu evolved after bermastautin di pantai timur or before? Soalan questionaire ni…Sally,Looking at the respond, I think somebody should open a budu club soon. I am sure many can share similar feeling, new idea, or even a budu outing π
December 22, 2010 at 8:05 am
>denaihati,Lama bermusafir tu. dia menggilai budu atau pembuat budu tu encik denaihati hhi…hi…Naddiea,Sebab tu lah kita kena pakat naikkan murtabat budu dan makanan seangkatang denganya.
