Hantaran for This Eid
Driven by the same values of honoring local wisdom and elevating our craft in our native Indonesia, SukkhaCitta, TAN-EUH and Blueboots Farm are joining hands this Eid Fitri to bring you a thoughtful reminder of what matters: human connection.
Hantaran is our exploration to bridge Indonesia’s ancient craftsmanship and bountiful produce with modern techniques and aesthetic. It is an embodiment of our social culture of giving in a time of festivities.
Each of the items in this hamper has been thoughtfully designed and handcrafted to bring forward the integrity inherent in our local wisdom. They were slowly made by remarkable artisans, using only local and natural resources.
We hope this simple thought can bring you and your loved ones together in the spirit of shared togetherness, especially in this time where divisiveness strikes.
Within this package you will find a couple of goodness which are perfect to be shared for Eid Fitri. Blueboots Farm’s jams are among the goodness in this Hantaran. A delectable Jackfruit and Strawberries Jam is made by slowly cooking freshly picked jackfruits and strawberries that were handpicked from farms in Cijeruk and Lembang. It is a great boost of vitamin C and can be enjoyed as spread on your morning toast, oatmeal or even to add flavor in your smoothie.
The other jam is Blueboots Farm’s Lemongrass & Blue Pea Jam. Fresh blue pea flowers, lime and lemongrass were slowly cooked in simmering heat to create this beautiful jam. Fresh and floral-scented, it is perfect to be shared with loved ones over a warm toast and tea.
In the Hantaran, you will also find a SukkhaCitta’s scarf. This scarf is handloomed using 100% unbleached cotton that is slowly dipped in natural, fermented Indigofera Tinctoria. The lines are accomplished using the complex Double Ikat technique to resist the dye, then put randomly on both the warp and the weft to create this modern asymmetry of lines. The weavers manually change between two shuttles, creating a silent orchestra of threads that cannot be replicated by machines.
TAN-EUH’s pineapple crisps is one thing that you wouldn’t want to miss from this Hantaran. The pineapples are grown by farmers in Central Java at the feet of Gunung Slamet. Harvested carefully by hands and slowly dehydrated at 40C to retain beneficial enzymes for the body.
Last but not least, we have Pandan Cookies, which pandan is grown organically at Blueboots farm in Bogor and slowly dehydrated to retain its signature aroma. Baked into delicious bite-size by Surely/Someday+Kitchen.
All of this goodness is impossible to be created without the collaboration of our precious friends for this Eid. To order please email samantha@blueboots.farm.
