Jali (Super Food of Indonesia part III)

Jali or Job’s Tears or even Coix lacryma-jobi is recognized as several names. Its pharmaceutical name is Semen Coicis Lachrymajobi of the family Gramineae. It’s also known as Coix, yi yi ren, Chi Shih, Chieh Li, Djali Batoe and that’s just a start.

Their seeds have already been utilized to make a number of products. The mature seeds right after de-hulling and cleaning are boiled as well as consumed along with cooked rice. The pounded flour is oftentimes also combined with water and taken as such as cooling drink just like barely or flour water. Raw kernels are utilized as peanut.

The beneficial effects of Job’s tears are decreasing liver fat accumulation, safeguarding from tumor stimulating compounds, protecting against viral infection, decreasing allergic reaction, decreasing coronary artery disease as well as arthrosclerosis and decreasing osteoporosis.
Additionally, Job’s tear grain could be polished and milled as flour and utilized as food components in several types of products.Use of this particular flour in bakery products can also be of interest. Because of the insufficient gluten, dough made from Job’s tear flour won’t be raised. An excellent mixture in bakery products is 70% wheat flour and 30% Job’s tear flour. Numerous studies reported as a result, this particular contribution aims to report the usage of Job’s tear flour to exchange wheat flour in butter cake. Consumer acceptance of butter cake containing Job’s tear flour is additionally investigated.
In Indonesia, we can find Job's tear as a first component of bubur jali-jali (its like a bubur from rice, but the colour is red). Hmmm so yummy!!!
