Kemiri Kuta Cane

  Simalungun-Di Kampung Girsang, kawasan Danau Toba, proses pengupasan kemiri di Kemiri Girsang tidak hanya menghasilkan kemiri kupas berkualitas, tetapi juga menyisakan  cangkang kemiri  dalam jumlah besar. Alih-alih dibuang, cangkang ini dimanfaatkan sebagai  bahan bakar alami  untuk kebutuhan rumah tangga dan UMKM kuliner—terutama untuk membakar ikan. Sebagai usaha yang berlokasi tak jauh dari Parapat, Kemiri Girsang memanfaatkan limbah produksi kemiri kupas agar bernilai guna, ramah lingkungan, dan membuka peluang usaha tambahan bagi warga sekitar Kampung Girsang. Kenapa Cangkang Kemiri Cocok untuk Bakar Ikan? Cangkang kemiri dikenal punya  daya bakar tinggi  dan  bara yang tahan lama . Ini membuat panas lebih stabil saat proses pemanggangan ikan—hasilnya matang merata tanpa mudah gosong di luar namun mentah di dalam. Selain itu, pembakarannya menghasilkan  aroma khas alami  yang memperkaya cita rasa ikan bakar. Berikut keunggulan ca...

  Simalungun,  Kampung Girsang I, Huta Tujuh Maria, Kecamatan Girsang Sipanganbolon, Kabupaten Simalungun, merupakan salah satu wilayah di Kawasan Danau Toba yang memiliki potensi kemiri cukup melimpah. Bagi masyarakat setempat, kemiri bukan sekadar hasil kebun, tetapi sudah menjadi bagian dari roda kehidupan ekonomi keluarga. Melihat potensi tersebut,  Kemiri Girsang  hadir sebagai usaha pengolahan kemiri batu menjadi kemiri kupas yang dirintis pada tahun 2025 oleh Damayanti. Usaha ini berlokasi tidak jauh dari Parapat dan mengandalkan bahan baku kemiri dari kebun-kebun warga sekitar Kampung Girsang.  Sejak awal berdiri, Kemiri Girsang membawa misi sosial yang kuat: membuka lapangan pekerjaan bagi perempuan—khususnya para ibu rumah tangga—serta memberi ruang kerja bagi anak muda agar bisa tetap bekerja di kampung tanpa harus merantau jauh. Proses Pengolahan Kemiri di Kemiri Girsang Sebelum diolah, kemiri batu dikumpulkan dari warga. Proses pengolahan masih dila...

    Simalungun, NINNA.ID -Indonesia’s abundant spices first attracted Portuguese merchants to Malacca in 1511. Indonesia also has long been known as  the Mother of Spices . Situated on the equator, this archipelago nurtures fertile soils and tropical climates that give birth to world-famous spices—nutmeg, pepper, cloves, cinnamon, ginger, and vanilla. Centuries ago, these treasures lured traders and explorers from across the world. Today, they continue to shape Indonesian identity through cuisine, culture, and community. Spices like cloves, nutmeg, and mace were highly prized, believed to cure diseases, and worth their weight in gold. Today, spices remain central to food and culture.  Indonesia  is also home to  jamu , a traditional health drink made from spices and herbs. For tour guides, telling the spice story is more than talking about food—it’s about connecting travelers to Indonesia’s heritage, flavors, and people. Each spice tells a story of local fa...

From here was born  Girsang Candlenut Enterprise , a humble yet meaningful initiative that processes candlenut fruit into high-quality peeled candlenuts. 🌱  From Nature’s Richness to Value-Added Products The Girsang area is fertile, rich in agriculture and plantations.
