Tapai or tape is a snack produced from the fermentation process of carbohydrate foods as a substrate by yeast. In Indonesia these substrates are usually glutinous rice and cassava tubers.

Yeast for tapai fermentation is a mixture of several microorganisms, especially fungi (mold and fungi), such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Rhizopus oryzae, Endomycopsis burtonii, Mucor sp., Candida utilis, Saccharomycopsis fibuligera, and Pediococcus sp. But it is possible that other types are also involved.

Tapai is generally semi-liquid, soft, has a sweet, sour taste, contains alcohol, and has a sticky texture

Ingredient : rice, garlic, Javanese chili, white pepper, and fennel

Please note : Making Tapai requires a certain room temperature and humidity so that the starter (yeast) can develop well.
