  You normally can't see it in the rojak coz the seller will slice little bits of it to give the rojak the fragrance.
  
  Ginger Flower
  
  Also known as torch ginger. The showy pink flowers of a tall perennial look almost too pretty to eat but their flavour is an essential ingredient in some dishes.

  ..... Should be from Penang (Malaysia)?? because the prawn paste from Penang is considered the best. I had eaten rojak in penang, the paste is very thick over there unlike over here. Other than the paste, the ingredients are almost the same. But lately the ingredients for our local rojak are getting more and more, especially the varieties of fruits.
  
  Been to most south east asian countries, but found rojak only in malaysia and singapore, never see them in others.
