Biko .. paired with hot choco drink ..

I did another edible treats today! It taste really good and sweet. If you know BIKO well  certainly you will crave for it!  I ate a saucer-full tonight with hot chocolate drink to match it..hmmm perfect for the breezy weather.

Paired this to BIKO...

So how I prepared it… you have to read this!

I asked someone to get an old coconut fruit. Then once cut and opened I shredded , and produced a fresh coconut milk.  On the stove I cook (over low-heat) the “rice” special rice for BIKO, we call it malagkit.. I describe it as sticky rice..lolz  Anyway my way of cooking Biko is separate from coconut milk.. I used to cook coconut milk over a high heat temperature and stir continuously until its natural oil comes out.  When that happens I add on the Brown Sugar / and the unrefined sugar.  Then I mix the rice on it.  Biko is served!!

Of corz I never eat Biko with out  hot pure chocolaty drink..

Iced candy treat to nibble on warm days…

To my surprise my foreign friend is not familiar with ICED CANDY… I could not just explain how it looks … it doesn’t look like an ice cream… I’ve thought if ice candy wrapper was known to my friend? But maybe not… so we just laugh instead…

This is what keeps me busy these days!  I love making ice candies and sell them!  Because Ice Candy is one of the usual summer treats of the Pinoys, especially the kids, I got a non-stop customer calling outside the gate to buy one or more.

It just started when I was at home for almost three weeks.  Nothing to do much while the sun warms above 32 degrees Celsius.  It was really hot!  I just made few pieces of buko flavor.  Then I realized I could do more and open my gate for kids…

Ice candy is very easy to prepare.  I could make 50 pieces in a half hour.  These are all I need: Ice candy wrapper (approximately 10×1”); a funnel; fruit/juice; water; milk and sugar.

After mixing all the ingredients, you just need to put an amount of it to a wrapper and tie it. Then hola! Your candy is ready for freezing time. My refrigerator looks like this…with piles of iced candy in different flavors; I do have Ice Candies available in different flavors: orange, mango, buko and avocado. Moreover I need to turn the freezing temperature to #5. It takes me 3-4 hours long to wait for the ice candies to get frozen.

Now it’s time to nibble the end of the plastic to sip or bite your desired iced candy!!  So refreshing against the warm day, keeping you cool in just one sip of its chilled sweetness. Gosh!! .. I remember my childhood years.

Who could refuse my iced candies? When they’re the most luscious taste in my place!

Spice up your dish with SAFFRON . . Famous around the world!!

be inspired with the .… beauty of Saffron. The strong, exotic aroma and a bitter taste of Saffron flavors many Mediterranean and Oriental dishes, particularly rice and fish, and English, Scandinavian, and Balkan breads. It is an important ingredient in bouillabaisse, paella and risotto. What a glorious food to add on to your menu!
