[edit] Sambal Djeroek

I've added this, and i assure you its quite real as i've bought jars of the stuff in the Netherlands. However i have no idea what its called, as djeroek is probably the Dutch spelling. Djeroek is basicly a leaf from a tree that is similar to the lemon tree, and gives a zesty citrus like taste.

Djeroek is same as jeruk. Djeroek is in Indonesian old spelling system (until 1959), while jeruk is in current spelling system. Jeruk means lemon or orange. In this case it means lemon.

Ah figures, the 'Dj' would be the Dutch spelling, like the older Djakarta, on the account of the Dutch 'j' being a bit like the English 'y' (as in you). Thanks.
