Etymology

edit

Borrowed from Malay sambal, from Javanese ꦱꦩ꧀ꦧꦼꦭ꧀ (sambel). In Surinamese Dutch, it may have been directly borrowed from Javanese, although the meaning is rather distinct from the Javanese word, probably an elipsis of Javanese ꦱꦩ꧀ꦧꦼꦭ꧀ꦲꦠꦶ (sambel ati).

    • 1797, J. S. Stavorinus, Reize van Zeeland over de Kaap de Goede Hoop en Batavia, naar Samarang, Macasser, Amboina, Suratte, enz., vol. I, publ. by A. & J. Honkoop, page 261.
      Ook maakt men van dit fijnſte meel iets gereed dat men Popeda noemt, het welk veel overeenkomst heeft met onze zoogenaamde Boekweite-brei, doch het is veel lijmiger; men eet dit van ſtokjens, die, in de Popeda geſtoken, een gedeelte, dat aan dezelven kleeven blijft, medeneemen, die voords in vischnat gedoopt zijnde, met een weinig visch en Sambal voor de beste ſpijs der Amboineezen gehouden wordt; ja zelfs voor die geenen, welke van Europeërs afkomstig zijn.
      Also from this finest flour something is prepared that is called papeda, which is very similar to our so-called buckwheat porridge, but it is much more gluey; it is eaten from sticks which, when dipped in the papeda, take with them a quantity that remains stuck to them, which, after it is then dipped in fish juice, together with some fish and sambal, is considered the best dish of the Ambonese; indeed, even of those originating from Europeans.
  2. (Suriname) A spicy spread made of chili peppers and chicken, esp. chopped liver.
