About Kristina
Every jar starts the same way it always has: in a kitchen, with a recipe passed down through time.
Ibu Kristina’s began with my instinctive way of cooking shaped by my Indonesian roots, years of trial and error, and a natural feel for flavour rather than written measurements. I was always creating tasty sauces to marinate meats on the BBQ, making food for friends, and cooking alongside chefs from around the world throughout my 25 years in professional kitchens.
A big part of the inspiration for this business came from my late husband, Tee, and from the years I spent bringing people together through food. That sense of family, warmth, and generosity is at the heart of everything we make.
When I couldn’t find anything here that truly came close, I decided to make it myself. Small batches, carefully made, with the same balance of heat, sweetness, and depth that I’ve always known how to create.
Today, our sauces are made to be enjoyed in all kinds of ways alongside cheese boards, in marinades, or to bring extra heat and flavour to dishes you’re already making. From our chilli oils to our sauces to my very own sambal, every product reflects the same approach: real ingredients, patience, and care, rooted in mine (Kristina’s) way of cooking.
I’m not chasing trends. I’m sharing a family tradition, from kitchen to bottle. Welcome to the first chapter of Moorthy Foods Ltd and Ibu Kristina’s.
