Today, rempeyek is commonly found in Indonesia and Malaysia, as well as in countries with considerable Indonesian migrant populations, such as The Netherlands and Suriname.Rempeyek is often associated with Javanese cuisine,[1][3] served to accompany pecel (vegetables in peanut sauce) or other meals, or as a stand-alone snack.The recent popularity of spicy food saw the use of sliced cabai rawit (bird's eye chili pepper) as rempeyek.There is also a regional specialty of rempeyek yutuk (mole crab), which can be found especially in Central Java's southern coast towns, such as Cilacap.[7][8] A popular Javanese song, Iwak Peyek, by female dangdut group Trio Macan, describes rempeyek as a commoners' dish.
