Food Traditions: The memories and methods of food and cooking
My love of thousand-layer cake comes from my childhood. Growing up in Indonesia, my mother would make desserts, and I am particularly fond of the thousand-layer cake. I learned how to make it by watching her. Thousand-layer cake is a combination of Dutch cake and Indonesian spices, and there is time involved in making it. Each layer is baked individually (not quite 1000 layers :)) and it's really quite a calming, fun tradition. There is a lot of love put into it, especially when the method is passed down from family to family.
