hamburgers, hot dogs, and French fries are common around the world. People are eating
(11) (a lot of/a) white bread instead of traditional food such as Colombian arepas or

(Name of the Traditional Food)
Bahasa Indonesia Version
Bahan baku kasoami adalah ubi kayu. Kasoami
telah menjadi simbol keakraban dan
persaudaraan khususnya bagi masyarakat Buton
di Sulawesi Tenggara. Nama kasoami sendiri
berarti makanan dari ubi kayu setengah olah
yang dimatangkan dengan proses pengukusan
(uap panas = soa). Kasoami dapat dibuat dari
kaopi (tepung ubikayu segar), tepung gaplek
dan ubi kayu yang telah difermentasi. Namun di
kios-kios penjual, umumnya kasoami dibuat dari
kaopi.
Proses pembuatan kaopi secara singkat dapat
dijelaskan sebagai berikut: ubi kayu segar yang
sudah dikupas, dicuci dan ditiriskan kemudian
diparut. Setelah diperoleh hasil parutan,
selanjutnya dibungkus kain saring dan dipres
hingga tak ada lagi air perasannya. Inilah yang
disebut kaopi, bahan baku utama untuk
membuat kasoami.
Pembuatan kasoami selanjutnya juga tidak
rumit. Kaopi yang telah dipres, lalu dipotong-
potong, diremas dan diayak hingga berbentuk
English Version
The raw material for kasoami is cassava.
Kasoami has become a symbol intimacy and
brotherhood especially for the Butonese in
Southeast Sulawesi. The name Kasoami itself
means food from semi-processed cassava
which is ripened by the steaming process (hot
steam = SOA). Kasoami can be made from
kaopi (fresh cassava flour), cassava flour and
fermented cassava. However, in the vendors'
stalls, the kasoami are generally made from
kaopi.
The process of making caopy can be briefly
described as follows: fresh cassava that has
been peeled, washed and drained and then
shredded. After obtaining the grated results,
then wrapped in a filter cloth and pressed
until there is no more juice. This is called
kaopi, the main raw material for making
kasoami.
The making of subsequent kasoami is also
uncomplicated. The pressed caopi is then cut
into pieces, kneaded and sieved until it is

dimasukkan cetakan berbentuk kerucut seperti
tumpeng. Warga Buton biasanya menggunakan
daun kelapa yang disulam menjadi kerucut.
Setelah itu, cetakan berisi tepung kasoami
dikukus dengan lama pengukusan tergantung
banyaknya tepung yang dicetak. Agar diperoleh
hasil sempurna, saat proses pengukusan harus
ditutup rapat. Setelah matang, kasoami siap
disantap bersama ikan asin atau ikan bakar.
shaped like flour. Then the kasoami flour is
put in a cone-shaped mold like a tumpeng.
Buton residents usually use coconut leaves
that are embroidered into cones.
After that, the mold containing kasoami flour
is steamed for a long time depending on the
amount of flour that is printed. In order to
obtain perfect results, the steaming process
must be closed tightly. Once cooked, the
kasoami are ready to eat with salted fish or
grilled fish.
