Polvoron
Polvoron is a Filipino-style shortbread made with toasted rice flour, powdered milk, sugar, and butter. They’re perfect for gift-giving with different delicious flavors for variety!

Filipino Coconut Macaroons
Filipino coconut macaroons are your new favorite baked treat! Soft, chewy and chock-full of coconut flavor, these mini cupcakes are absolutely addicting. Coconut macaroons are widely available at most major supermarkets in our area but although soft, chewy and equally wonderful, they are a little different from the Filipino coconut macaroons I grew up with…
Pink Velvet Cupcakes
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month and I am so honored to be partnering with Kitchen Aid in support of this great cause through their 10,000 Cupcake Challenge. Breast cancer is an issue that hits close to home for me. I’ve personally witnessed the devastation this disease brings not only to the afflicted but…
Calamansi Muffins
I’ve been on a quest for the perfect calamansi muffins recipe since forever and I am thrilled to say, I finally found it! I have tried and tested a handful of recipes in my long search. Some were given by friends or family, some I found online and some were my own experimentations. Every one…
Ukoy na Dilis
This ukoy na dilis is the third on our list of ukoy recipes but while the previous two use a variety of vegetables and shrimp, anchovies are the star in this latest version. Although I go through the painstaking trouble of cleaning smelt fish when I prepare them deep-fried, dilis are far too small for…
Crispy Fried Smelt Fish
I was initially going to call this crispy dilis but on researching online, I found out dilis is actually anchovy and not smelt fish. If you’re familiar with smelt fish and know what they’re called in Tagalog, please feel free to chime in on the comments below.:) Anyway, I fried up a good two pounds…
Kutsinta
I’ve been on the look out for a good recipe for kutsinta since forever but my search and kitchen experimentation have been sorely disappointing. That was until last weekend when my kumare posted on Facebook this picture of the kutsinta she made and how she finally nailed the recipe after two years of trial and…
Chicken Pastel
Has it been a week since my last recipe? I apologize, my peeps. I did have a number of delicious things ready to go but I had my hands full with a lot of behind the scenes stuff to actually post them. Busy with what, you ask? Well, for one, I finally have an ecookbook…
Leche Puto
Remember all my big talk about being more deliberate about my content and my blah-blah-blah about scheduling what I cook weeks in advance? Well, scrap that! I did have a list of recipes I was going to work on this weekend but then I saw photos of these leche puto on my FB newsfeed today…
Calamansi Cheesecake Bars
Guys, I am sorry if I haven’t been posting recipes as often as usual these past weeks. I wish I can excuse myself and say, I was busy with work or just life in general. Sure, there have been family parties and holiday gatherings I had to attend to, special events and projects on the…
