Easy Creamy Dalgona Coffee Recipe

What is Dalgona Coffee?

Dalgona coffee is a beverage made by whipping equal parts instant coffee powder, sugar, and hot water until it becomes creamy and then adding it to cold or hot milk. Occasionally, it is topped with coffee powder, cocoa, crumbled biscuits, or honey. It was popularized on social media during the COVID-19 pandemic, when people refraining from going out started making videos of whipping the coffee at home, by hand without using electrical mixers. The name is derived from dalgona, a Korean sugar candy, due to the resemblance in taste and appearance, though most dalgona coffee doesn’t actually contain dalgona.

Easy Filipino Puto Recipe

Here is an easy Filipino Puto recipe that you can make at home!

What is Filipino Puto?

Puto is a Filipino steamed rice cake, traditionally made from slightly fermented rice dough (galapong). It is eaten as is or as an accompaniment to a number of savoury dishes (most notably, dinuguan). Puto is also an umbrella term for various kinds of indigenous steamed cakes, including those made without rice. It is a sub-type of kakanin (rice cakes).

The key characteristics are that they are cooked by steaming and are made with some type of flour (to contrast with bibingka, which are baked cakes). There are exceptions, however, like puto seko which is a baked dry cookie. The traditional puto made with galapong is sometimes referred to as putong puti (“white puto“) or putong bigas (“rice puto) to distinguish it from other dishes also called puto.

Modern variants of puto may also use non-traditional ingredients like ube (purple yam), vanilla, or chocolate.
From Wikipedia

The Filipino Puto is one of the country’s most famous rice cakes. It is also one of the most basic regarding the ingredients and the simplicity of the procedure.

Easy Filipino Style Spaghetti Recipe

This Easy Filipino Style Spaghetti Recipe is a Filipino adaptation of Italian spaghetti. It has a sweet sauce, usually made from tomato sauce sweetened with brown sugar or banana ketchup. It is topped with sliced hot dogs, ground meat, and grated cheese. It is regarded as comfort food in Philippine cuisine. It is served on almost any special occasion, especially on children’s birthdays.

Filipino spaghetti is cheap and easy to make, which is part of the reason for its popularity. First, minced garlic and onions are sautéed in oil in a large pan until they caramelize. The ground meat is added and cooked until it is brown. Sliced hot dogs are then added. It can be replaced with other processed meat like smoked longganisa sausages, ham, Vienna sausages, meatballs, luncheon meat, spam, or corned beef. It is cooked for a few more minutes before the tomato sauce mixture is poured into the pan. Some people use store-bought spaghetti sauce as the base for convenience.

Easy Chicken Pastel Recipe

Chicken Pastel is a traditional savory casserole dish originating in the Philippines.

Chicken Pastel or Pastel de Pollo in Spanish, is the Filipino version of the Chicken Pot Pie or empanada without the pie crust.

The chicken in the pastel recipe may be replaced with any kind of meat, including pork or duck.

There are many variations of the dish depending on the region. Filipino families even often have their own interpretations. In nearly every version of the dish, the main ingredients are diced chicken meat and sausages. Chorizo sausages are commonly used, but hot dogs or vienna sausages could be substituted for real sausage.

Filipinos often eat this dish with rice. Many Filipino foods have Spanish or Mexican roots but the influx of Chinese settlers inspired the use of rice in Filipino cooking. That is why a lot of the European foods that were introduced to the Philippines were adapted to the traditional rice and viand mixes.
