kakanin

I like “kakanin” very much, especially the Suman sa Ibus of Antipolo, people usually just dip it in sugar, but I prefer it eaten without putting anything with it. Here is a recipe that I got from the book entitled Recipes of the Philippines, which was compiled and edited by Enriqueta David-Perez.

Suman sa Ibus
Ingredients:
3 cups malagkit rice
2 cups thick coconut milk
3 teaspoons salt
Procedure:
Soak malagkit in water until grains are swollen. Wash malagkit rice and drain. Add salt and coconut milk. Fill “buri” tube containers 2/3 full. Close opening by pinning together with a piece of bamboo pick about 1/3 the size of toothpick. Tie each suman with strips of buri.
Arrang in a deep kettle, cover with water and cover container. Boil for 2 hours or until each is cooked completely. Serve with sugar, ripe mangoes of chocolate.
