Oncom

Oncom is a traditional product that is fermented with mold. The base of every oncom is prepared with various by-products such as soy pulp, peanut and coconut press cake, or cassava tailings that are fermented with two types of mold to create red and black oncom varieties.


Often praised for its low cost and high nutritional value, oncom can be enjoyed as a stand-alone snack or wrapped in banana leaves. It is mainly produced and consumed in West Java.
