Pastil
''Pastil'', or ''pastel'', is a Filipino packed rice dish made with steamed rice wrapped in banana leaves with dry shredded beef, chicken, or fish. It originates from the Maguindanao people and is a popular, cheap breakfast meal in Mindanao, especially among Muslim Filipinos. ''Pastil'' is also known as ''patil'', ''patel'', ''patir'', or ''pater'' in Maranao; and ''paster'' in Iranun. Pastil is also the Tausūg name for a type of empanada, an unrelated pastry made with beansprout and glass noodle fillings mostly popular in Zamboanga City. Description The meat or fish component of the dish is known as the ''kagikit''. It is usually shredded beef or chicken. The meat is cooked similar to ''adobo''. It is first boiled until tender, then allowed to cool before shredding them into little strips. Garlic and onions are sautéed in a pan and the shredded meat added after the onions turn transparent. Soy sauce (or oyster sauce), black pepper, labuyo chilis, and salt to taste are ad ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Pusô
''Pusô'' or ''tamu'', sometimes known in Philippine English as "hanging rice", is a Filipino rice cake made by boiling rice in a woven pouch of palm leaves. It is most commonly found in octahedral, diamond, or rectangular shapes, but it can also come in various other intricately woven complex forms. It is known under many different names throughout the Philippines with numerous variations, but it is usually associated with the street food cultures of the Visayan and Moro peoples. ''Pusô'' refers to the way of cooking and serving rice on woven leaves, and thus does not refer to a specific recipe. It can actually refer to many different ways of preparing rice, ranging from plain, to savory or sweet. Regardless, all of them are woven pouches where rice is poured inside and cooked by boiling. ''Pusô'' are differentiated from other leaf-wrapped Filipino dishes like '' suman'', ''binalot'', and '' pastil'', in that the latter use leaves that are simply wrapped around the food and f ...

Suman (food)
Suman or budbud is a rice cake originating in the Philippines. It is made from glutinous rice cooked in coconut milk, often wrapped in banana leaves, coconut leaves, or ''buli'' or ''buri'' palm (''Corypha'') leaves for steaming. It is usually eaten sprinkled with sugar or laden with latik. A widespread variant of ''suman'' uses cassava instead of glutinous rice. Varieties There are numerous varieties of suman, with almost every town or locality having its speciality. Some are described below: *''Binuo'' (or ''Suman sa Binuo'') – A rare variety of suman, the glutinous rice is soaked, milled, mixed with coconut milk and sugar, wrapped in the leaves of the Tagbak plant, and steamed. The leaves give this variety of suman a uniquely balmy, minty flavor, and the suman itself is chewier than the whole-rice varieties. *''Kurukod'' or ''kurukud'' - A type of cassava suman with a filling of sweetened grated coconut (''bukayo''). *''Suman sa Ibus'' (or simply ''Ibus'') – A ubiquito ...

Main Dish
A main course is the featured or primary dish in a meal consisting of several courses. It usually follows the entrée ("entry") course. Typically, the main course is the meal that is the heaviest, heartiest, and most intricate or substantial on the menu. Typically, meat or fish is the main component; but, in vegetarian meals, the main dish will occasionally make an effort to resemble a meat course. Usage In the United States and Canada (except Quebec), the main course is traditionally called an "entrée". English-speaking Québécois follow the modern French use of the term entrée to refer to a dish served before the main course. According to linguist Dan Jurafsky, North American usage ("entrée") retains the original French meaning of a substantial meat course. See also * Full course dinner A full-course dinner is a dinner consisting of multiple dishes, or ''Course (meal), courses''. In its simplest form, it can consist of three or four courses; for example: first c ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Banana
A banana is an elongated, edible fruit – botanically a berry – produced by several kinds of large herbaceous flowering plants in the genus ''Musa''. In some countries, bananas used for cooking may be called "plantains", distinguishing them from dessert bananas. The fruit is variable in size, color, and firmness, but is usually elongated and curved, with soft flesh rich in starch covered with a rind, which may be green, yellow, red, purple, or brown when ripe. The fruits grow upward in clusters near the top of the plant. Almost all modern edible seedless ( parthenocarp) bananas come from two wild species – ''Musa acuminata'' and ''Musa balbisiana''. The scientific names of most cultivated bananas are ''Musa acuminata'', ''Musa balbisiana'', and ''Musa'' × ''paradisiaca'' for the hybrid ''Musa acuminata'' × ''M. balbisiana'', depending on their genomic constitution. The old scientific name for this hybrid, ''Musa sapientum'', is no longer used. ''Musa ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Bibingka
''Bibingka'' (; ) commonly refers to a type of baked rice cake from the Philippines that is traditionally cooked in a terracotta oven lined with banana leaves and is usually eaten for breakfast or as merienda (mid-afternoon snack) especially during the Christmas season. It can also be used as a general term referring to other Filipino baked rice cakes products, for example, those made with cassava flour (''bibingkang cassava / bibingkang kamoteng kahoy''), glutinous rice (''bibingkang malagkit''), or plain flour. ''Bibingka'' is also found in East Timor and Christian communities in eastern Indonesia. Origins The shared origins of ''bibingka'' from the Philippines and Indonesia is widely acknowledged especially given that the Indonesian ''bibingka'' is from Eastern Indonesia, the regions closest to the Philippines with the most closely related cultures. Some authors have also proposed a connection between the Goan dessert ''bebinca'' (or ''bibik'') and the Southeast Asian '' ...

Puto Bumbong
''Puto bumbong'' is a Filipino purple rice cake steamed in bamboo tubes - widely known as puto bumbonger or bumbongizer. It is traditionally sold during the Christmas season. It is a type of '' puto'' (steamed rice cake). Etymology The name is derived from Tagalog '' puto'' (steamed rice cakes) and ''bumbong'' or ''bombong'' ("bamboo tube"). The names are sometimes mistakenly spelled as ''puto bungbong'' or ''puto bongbong''. Description ''Puto bumbong'' is made from a unique heirloom variety of glutinous rice called '' pirurutong'' (also called ''tapol'' in Visayan) which is deep purple to almost black in color. ''Pirurutong'' is mixed with a larger ratio of white glutinous rice (''malagkit'' or ''malagkit sungsong'' in Tagalog; ''pilit'' in Visayan). Regular white rice may also be used instead of ''malagkit'', to give the dish a less chewy consistency. In the Philippines, ''puto bumbong'' is traditionally served in Christmas gatherings together with ''bibingka''. The rice ...
