It's been awhile I know that I am not posting anything here.
Where I have been and what happened? Well, life happens!
So you know.... tsk tsk tsk!
Let's get into the business anyways.
This week I have been into steaming and baking Filipino delicacies. I have this cravings and getting it anywhere, anytime you want here in Poland is impossible. The best solution is to make it yourself.
Today, I will be sharing a very simple Filipino delicacy named Puto Cheese.
This will be a series of Puto recipes, by the way. So bare with me.
If you ask Uncle Google what is puto, it is a Filipino steamed rice cakes or sometimes made of non rice flour. This recipe of puto cheese is one using only the normal cake or all purpose flour.
Mind you, this is an easy to make snack.
For this recipe we need:
- 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cake flour
- 2 tbsp. of baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 egg yolks
- 3/4 cup white sugar, divided
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup evaporated milk
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla
- 2 egg whites
- 1/2 cup grated or cut cheddar cheese
How to:
1. In a mixing bowl, sift flour, baking powder and salt three times. Set aside.
2. In another bowl, beat egg yolks until lemon coloured. Gradually beat in 1/2 cup sugar. Beat in flour mixture alternately with water and milk. Add vanilla and then set aside.
3. Beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Add 1/3 cup white sugar and continue beating until stiff. Fold in egg batter. Blend well and pour mixture in a greased cupcake moulder or silicon moulder.
4. Sprinkle grated or cut cheese on top. Cover with cheese cloth. Steam for 25-30 minutes or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
5. Serve and ready to enjoy!
* In case you don't have cupcake moulders, just use 9-inch cake pan and sprinkle grated cheese on top.
It looks so cheesy, right? ( insert your smile here)
SMACZNEGO! (polish word which means 'enjoy your meal or bon appetite)
Up next.... I will share my puto flan recipe. *wink
as always,
