Palitaw

Tweet0Pin0Share0Yummly0

This is a very simple snack or dessert that you can make. It is made up of ground glutinous rice, toasted sesame seeds, sugar and grated coconuts. Just in case you are wondering why it is called palitaw, which means “to float” it is because the way you cook this kakanin. It is because you need to wait for the glutinous rice patties to float from the boiling water which means that it is already done and can be served by coating it with grated coconut mixture.

To make palitaw; Soak malagkit flour with water for at least 1 hour. Form into small balls and flatten with fingers to form tongues. Drop in boiling water. When they float, skim and drop in cold water. Drain and roll in mixed coconut, sugar and linga mixture. Serve cold.
