Description
Summary:The methods of preparing and cooking traditional Malay food have been transformed as a result of the introduction of modern cooking appliances, and the majority of them are no longer prepared and cooked traditionally. Traditional cooking utensils, on the other hand, are nearly non-existent in Malay households nowadays, and can only be found in rural areas or villages Raji et al., (2017), as more people choose to use contemporary cooking equipment like gas and electric stoves. According to Kamaruzaman et al., (2020), many people in this day and age have lost the distinctiveness of the cooking skills and practises that our forefathers passed down to us in Malay cuisine. According to Nor et al., (2020), the younger generation is giving up traditional Malaysian eating habits and replacing them with ready-made meals. Studies show that switching and unlimited information technology influences food intake and habit changes. Apart from that, the use of modern techniques helps Malay chefs adapt traditional cooking methods to the modern environment and cook more efficiently. Overall, it may be concluded that chefs' cooking skills may be deteriorating due to their over-reliance on current technologies.
