make sure you stay until the end with that said we're gonna get started with our video
indonesia is one of the spiciest countries i've been to in southeast asia i know why they call it
satan's spice and most of the heat is due to this sauce that seems to accompany almost every meal
is this spicy it's really spicy it's really spicy today we're going on a spicy food tour of jakarta
getting to know indonesian cuisine through its heat they've got a giant bucket here of chili
paste we'll sample 32 insane varieties of sambal all of these are ours yeah there's still more oh
sacrifice our stomachs to take on the spiciest said block in the city
i'm trying right now i can feel my heartbeat in my mouth so get
your yogurt and your ice cream on standby because it's about to get hot
a restaurant famous for its sambal 32 kinds of sambal to be precise sambal is a hot sauce or
paste that contains ground chilies and basically whatever else you want to throw in there but
garlic shrimp paste sugar and lime often make an appearance with such a huge selection to
choose from i'm hoping the owner can tell me where to start thank you for having us today
you have 32 flavors what is like one or two of your most unique sambal flavors special
mango and pineapple that sounds perfect i would love to try this
sambal water has the inclusion of fried barb fish which look like little minnows
so we're going to eat this one right now i'm going to get a little scoop here cheers
yeah that's very fishy it is but it's pretty tasty their garlic sambal starts with bird's
eye and curly chilies msg salt and a bit of elbow grease with a stone mortar and a
pestle but trust me grinding this paste is a lot harder than it looks oh do you want me to do it
it's okay oh my god this is way harder than it looks okay can you help me i'm tired already how
do you do this look how fast she moves oh so frog yeah it just disappears immediately next she adds
in the garlic and grinds until it's pastified do you ever eat a plane um yeah okay great cheers
wow that is an aggressive sambal guys
you gotta mix that with some other things i believe i need some rice we need a lot of rice
the sweating has begun it's a good thing i wore this today the roasted garlic is coming through
plenty of savory umami flavor you know what i say and that's g that is delicious
of all the flavors to choose from the eel sambal wins the award for most unique we are making the
eel sambal take it away starting with some of these curly chilies and bird's eye chili
some msg and some salt and then like a pro i tried doing this earlier huge fill and then bam
garlic you would think hey that's already a pretty good sambal why don't you just stop
no we're putting in fried eel and there it is dark as night we gotta make sure they're
dead ma'am they're already dead this is the magic right here so mixing it with the chili
where does the eel end where does the chilies begin it's all just one organism
no and we're going to try this with one of our dishes today can she recommend a
dish that that goes well with maybe french toast they don't have that here are the 32
different types of sambal all the sambal on their entire menu okay here's a squid one
they put fermented shrimp paste in a lot of these huh great super indonesian yeah let's go for it
that's quite fishy this is good but would be even better paired with something else
i think oh the spice kicks in late these are stink beans yes my good friend told me
it's not that they're stinky here it's that they're stinky after eating it it makes your
breath stink okay so i'm gonna scoop up a bean shrimpy spicy it's got some sulphuriness to it
oh these it's getting bad the spice is getting real over here you like that one yeah i like
that too it's a real hot dog you're gonna eat a lot oh your bread is gonna stink no doubt we're
gonna grab like five of these order some food then go to our table to eat all right let's go
we have five kinds of sambal we have chicken tofu fried mushrooms
calamari here crackers i'm not the only cracker at this table where do we go from here you wanna
okay i'm gonna take some tempeh tofu fresh veggies so we put on some plants yeah and then what chili
would you like to try let's start with their most popular one here with chili's a lot of
shrimp paste in there a few drops of lime but what do we do from here pick it up you pick the
chili goo up with your hand yeah is it ever too spicy for your hands just don't do it in your face
don't do it in your face yeah so i've got some sambal on rice here i'm gonna try that out
it's really good super salty fishy just a ton of fresh chilies coming through i love
the freshness of it usually if i ate a meal like this alone would there be no talking eating and
sweating but you have to talk though i'm doing my best we do have some actual eel sauce here
what do you think can we pair with that we didn't try tofu yet now i like tofu because
it's just very neutral it's a flavored vehicle i'm just gonna brush on a little bit of this
eel sambal here oh there's still nice big healthy chunks of eel in there cheers
very fishy crunchy i think it's unique so there's no rules about what you can pair
and not pear anything is a goat i can't fare anything i'm gonna drink this tea
now we can go on our way to the spiciest soup joint in jakarta we happen upon a street food
vendor who's dishing out a sweet and spicy snack he's going to make a rujak is like a fruit with
palm sugar and maybe some chili in there and then just smash everything oh so he's got this little
stone bowl here rooja is a fruit snack that starts off with salt shrimp paste unripe banana plum
mango rose apple sweet potato and a hockey puck of palm sugar all that gets mashed to a pulp but this
is still a spicy food video it has chilies because we're doing a spicy tour today so this is perfect
for the last 14 years this mobile street food vendor has been selling rudolph pup pup for a
dollar a portion combing the streets until he runs out of food 14 years doing this but his age is 61.
once yes he has four children seven grandkids keep paying the last child to go to the university wow
and now the final thing right here after he mashes everything it's just almost like a fruit
salsa is this something you remember eating when you were young yes i ate this a lot oh
i think i do it upside down do you know how to do with spoons do you know how spoon twerk
all right let's try it out okay
it's tart it's sweet and then it's a little spicy at the end i like spiciness and things where you
wouldn't expect it do you feel like you're eating your memories do you have a nostalgia
me too i feel like i'm eating your memories i love it different textures some of it's mushy some is a
little crunchy stone and some is just completely turned to like a watery fruity broth in there
this is great but the real reason we actually came here is because we're going there what is inside
that restaurant five levels all spicy what level do we go with today you wanna try level five we're
in the kitchen now what were you saying about this in this this is the the inside of the soup
this one is wet indonesian okay we got a white cracker yeah so that's the face and then these are
the different meats yeah this is the chicken legs bones you can just order bones the bone is just
for flavoring right yeah you can just kind of suck at the bones let's just get meat our fiery soup is
packed with protein including beef knuckle chicken breast noodles then back to meatballs sausages egg
and even lobster balls wait that's for you i thought that's for the whole team i thought that's
for the camera guys too i'm gonna get just what you're getting too i think that looks delicious
the shop name seblock gillette murny means surprising surge of fire here they've got five
levels of pain i mean spice to choose from and it all starts here which kind of chili is this
curly chili i have a feeling they're gonna put it in this machine and grind it into a paste they've
hooked a lawnmower engine up to a meat grinder and he started it just like a leaf blower that's
awesome look at this huge handfuls of chilis here pouring them in and then it's just coming out the
bottom after a few minutes of grinding the chili paste is ready right here this is the heartbeat of
our soup this is what's gonna punch us right in the stomach you ready for this each spice level
has a corresponding number of spicy scoops we're going with the hottest option level five meaning
five scoops we're standing next to the owner now she came here because it's time for the broth it's
very serious they've got a giant bucket here of chili paste that's all paste i mean that will
cinch your nose hairs right off which is something i could use right now that's all for one bowl
oh my god this is the level five spice okay she's putting in glazing red orange broth is this even
gonna be enjoyable it's all mixed together and it's become a spicy sludge in with some more
broth good a little bit of sugar to help with the spice i think maybe right this one is seasoning
more sugar we're gonna regret this so much she's gonna put all the meats in this bowl i don't even
know how there's room for broth in there this is a whole bowl of meat after the meat and broth
come together a little scallion and fried onion complete the dish time to eat thank you i think
all right let's go dye it as if trying level five spice isn't enough rachel and i have decided to
make a fun game of it no waters on the table we're doing the whole thing okay deal all right deal
yeah that was a dog whoever gives up first has to eat a whole raw chili she gave us a fork and a
spoon no chopsticks the broth actually does smell very savory very delicious as you look at it it's
almost gritty because of the pieces of chili in there like it is literally a sludge here we go
mmm it's really yummy though i don't think that's too spicy
is this a lobster ball yeah guys i didn't even know lobsters had balls all right here we go
yummy salty bouncy tender what is this piece lit ball
why am i sliding already i don't know i feel pun i'm just always sweating are you okay yeah why
why are you asking me that though my face depicts a warrior brave and unfazed at this very moment my
insides are being ripped apart by this level five spice you look so red right now so do you
ten rachel isn't going down without a fight but i will do whatever it takes to win this competition
you want to do a draw yeah draw we both win it was so spicy the whole time can you tell it was spicy
i'm trying right now why didn't we do that one of those for me right
no for real though level five is super super spicy i feel like i just peed on a campfire
the flavors were very delicious so many meats so many fun activities in there to choose from
and actually i'm kind of high right now do you feel the highness maybe the next time we come
back we should try level zero next time level zero ball said the name literally means devil's
sauce the perfect place for late night spice lovers since they opened eight years ago packed
to the brim with locals cats hoping to get some leftovers and a huge variety of food here
they have all the main courses that people are eating oh what are you scooping up there my man
that that is it on your cheat sheet no i like you just holding a piece of paper with the names of
things on it jengkol also known as dog fruit is a legume commonly found in southeast asia
it's said to have an intoxicating aroma that'll still be with you about 10 hours after eating
i know a lot of people like it i don't like that i definitely want to try it so much here we've
got salted squid stinky beans what is this do you like intestine um i'll eat it just for the show
if you look down here that's tofu if you look that way that's chicken if you look up that's a bunch
of fried food if you look here we've just got a bunch of different catfish some pan fish more
chicken there's just everything here this is just a bucket of fish catch of the day so we're going
to cook this big old fish while the fish is in the fryer we're gonna go learn how to make sambal
i know a guy who knows a guy he said it's cool instead of 32 varieties sambal satan has one spicy
sauce recipe and they make over 80 pounds of it fresh throughout the night for this next part he
has to get onto a stepping stool to break it apart there's so many chilies my men is this spicy it's
really spicy it's really spicy hey great question what did i think's gonna say it's not like it's
a bunch of apples starting with hundreds of red and green bird's eye chilies sugar and salt how
long has he been doing this job four years do you feel like you build up some upper body strength
no he still doesn't have muscles oh after half the batch is crushed they add msg crush it some
more then add fermented shrimp paste and tomato then a final bit of crushing until it looks
like this my stomach is a turbulent storm of hostility and rage right now
i don't know how much longer i can go on but we're gonna make it through we're to satisfy the
audience we have to give them what they didn't pay for and just take the spice to the next level
after 15 minutes of chili grinding our demonic spicy sauce is ready joining the
spread some smelly jengkol fried fish salted squid and even this thing what animal is then
chicken guitar why is it so black let's just eat it don't think just chew so i don't even
know where to start but i want to try some of the sambal and this food you said you're not a huge
fan of this jengkol it's kind of the smelly thing in fact i wanna yeah it's a little like sulfury
it's hard to explain it a little garlicky too are you ready yeah let's go for it
wow that's smelly both like a potato like a rotten potato it's like sour oh and the spice
do you feel the spice yeah i know why they call it satan's spice my body is not happy
with me at all right now when i have korean barbecue i have little pieces of garlic it's
intense but you start to get it addicted to it yeah i like it it's your thing now
it's my thing do you like it big fish we're gonna dig in with our hands look at that steam
it is crispy juicy fish that looks really awesome a little bit of sambal cheers
it's good it's yummy it's crunchy it is a bit fishy still the texture is quite chicken next
the salt is quick that's a squid it's become hard so they've fried it you
just gotta burn the heck out of it with that sun bulb and everything's gonna be all right
what do you think wow guys that was a lot of food and it reminded me of a little bit of
like morocco where people sitting outside eating like in my Marrakech its like that i liked it quite a
bit when you were there last year it's really really nice because everybody's out and about
sitting outside you know drinking tea coffee eating food and subhan'Allah indonesians eat a lot
of spicy food i thought like south east asia so maybe like india pakistan bangladesh but i think
probably indonesia tops all of them because the food is spicy and we saw that here
super super spicy the soup the sambal so that would be nice to enjoy maybe try it like
level zero level one but not level why so thank you very much guys for suggesting this i hope you
