Culinary Tradition of Cassava Rice in Indigenous Villages Cireundeu, Cimahi, Indonesia as Food Security Heritage in The Era of Gastro Colonialism

Abstract

This study described the culinary tradition of cassava rice in Kampung Adat Cireundeu Cimahi Indonesia as a legacy of sustainable food security in the era of gastro colonialism. This is a qualitative study during community service using ethnographic methods with data collection techniques through interviews, observations, documentation studies, and literature studies. In the results, Kampung Adat Cireundeu Cimahi is a Food Self-Sufficiency Village, managing land to meet food needs while still implementing sustainable customary rules. Cassava rice as a sustainable food security heritage is a culinary tradition, born from the food limitations of the Traditional Village community during the colonial period. Thus, innovation in utilizing cassava as an alternative food made cassava a staple food for the Cireundeu community. Efforts to preserve the culinary tradition of cassava rice are carried out by the entire community through inheritance in the family environment, the seren taun tradition ceremony as a symbol of local food wisdom, collaboration with the government, and innovation of processing cassava products to improve the food welfare and food security of the community.
