00:00 Citizens, you must know about Lumpia Semarang.
00:05 The special Semarang food that is sometimes served at Lumpia is a traditional snack of the Javanese Tionghoa.
00:11 But did you know that Lumpia is literally created from love?
00:16 Let's talk about the origin of Lumpia Semarang.
00:20 It all started when George Haichou, who was born in Fujian, emigrated to Semarang and opened a business of Tionghoa's special food in the 19th century.
00:29 George Haichou met Mrs. Washi, a Javanese who sold almost the same food.
00:37 In short, they fell in love and united their love in marriage and business ideas.
00:43 The filling of Lumpia is turned into chicken or shrimp mixed with flour.
00:49 And wrapped with Lumpia's skin, Tionghoa's special.
00:54 What makes it delicious is the fresh shrimp and eggs.
01:00 The flour is sweet and the Lumpia's skin is crispy when fried.
01:04 This sweet and savory snack is served with thick sweet sauce, cucumber pickles and lokio.
01:10 The taste is really in the mouth.
01:14 Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
01:17 Especially when eaten when it's warm.
01:19 Hmm, it's so good.
01:22 Who would have thought that a change of touch would make the perfect combination of the taste of this culinary world.

01:33 with many of their descendants who are still selling Lumpia.
01:37 One of them is Lumpia Dang Lombok in the small area of Semarang, which still uses the special recipe of Tumurun.
