Jakarta, Indonesia Sentinel — One of Indonesia’s traditional dishes has earned international recognition in the global culinary scene. Pecel, a traditional salad from East Java, has been ranked among the world’s top 10 best salads by the global food guide TasteAtlas.

TasteAtlas, an online food encyclopedia featuring global dishes, flavors, ingredients, spices, and authentic restaurants, released its “Top 100 Salads in the World” list. Among the selections, Pecel secured the No. 8 spot, joining a list dominated by well-known international salads from countries like Greece and Italy.

Pecel is a traditional Indonesian dish, particularly from East Java, made with a medley of blanched vegetables such as spinach, bean sprouts, long beans, and kenikir leaves, all generously coated in a savory and slightly spicy peanut sauce.
