Pempek has entered the top 10 list of the world's best seafood according to Taste Atlas, a culinary and travel guide website.

This Palembang, South Sumatra specialty ranked fourth best seafood globally, scoring 4.7 out of 5 points. Pempek beat dozens of other seafood dishes from various countries, including sushi from Japan and fritto misto from Italy.

Pempek is made from ground fish meat mixed with tapioca flour. It's then deep-fried until golden brown and served with a distinctive sauce called cuko.

Various types of pempek exist, including lenjer, kapal selam, keriting, pistel, adaan, and tahu.

According to Taste Atlas, pempek originated from an elderly Palembang resident who, tired of fried or grilled fish, innovated by grinding fish meat, mixing it with tapioca flour, and frying it into a crispy snack.

This Palembang resident would cycle around the city selling their creation. "Over time, pempek became increasingly well-known and is now one of Indonesia's delicious traditional foods," Taste Atlas reported on Thursday, March 16, 2023.

Taste Atlas is a Croatian culinary website reviewing traditional dishes, local ingredients, and authentic restaurants. It has reviewed over 10,000 foods and drinks worldwide.

Here is the list of the top 10 best seafood in the world according to Taste Atlas:

1. Ameijoas a Bulhao Pato (Portugal): 4.8 points
2. Gambas al ajillo (Spain): 4.7 points
3. Ceviche mixto (Peru): 4.7 points
