Soto, also known as saoto, is a soup that is enjoyed throughout the countries of Indonesia and Suriname. Every recipe has its own cultural-historical roots and instructions for preparation vary from cookbook to cookbook. Portrayed as if they were shadow puppets, we witness three women preparing various recipes from books published between 1902 and 1967. They finish with the soto/saoto as served today by restaurant Warung Mini.
