melinjo

    (Gnetum gnemon) The small oval fruits of the gnemon tree, which are both red and green, contain a seed which is used to make tantalizing, deep-fried crisps known as melinjo nut crackers. In Indonesia, they are called emping melinjo or belinjo. They may be labeled 'melinjo wafers', 'dried bitter nuts' or 'bitter nut crackers'. Some brands list the ingredients as melinjo nuts and tapioca starch. Others simply state that they are melinjo nuts, and indeed they look like nuts which have been rolled out thinly. Some sources say the seed is ground into flour, then pressed into a thin wafer and dried in the sun. Whatever the method, the crackers are parchment colored, thin circles, 2.5-3.5cm in diameter, with somewhat jagged edges. More

      I am doing a scrapbook layout about one of my favourite things and I would love to have permission to use this photo for personal use only to go on my scrapbook page about emping.
      Of course I would give credit to your photo on my layout.
