The flavour and aroma of Budu are produced by the action of proteolytic microorganisms surviving during the fermentation process. Palm sugar and tamarind are usually added to promote a browning reaction, resulting in a dark brown hue. The ratio of fish to salt is the key to the final desired product. The microorganisms play an important role in protein degradation, flavour and aroma development. Budu has been declared a Malaysian heritage food by the Malaysian Department of National Heritage.
