Anyway, last weekend I’ve made my very first homemade palitaw. I asked my husband to buy glutinous rice, grated coconut, and sesame seeds in the market. Cooking palitaw is easy, the only problem is I can’t shape the dough properly so I ended up making different sizes. Well, the only problem is making a consistent size of palitaw but shapes or sizes do not matter since I won't sell it.
Homemade Palitaw Recipe
1. Boil 2 quarts of water.
2. Toast the sesame seeds, mix them in 1 cup sugar, and set them aside.
3. Put the glutinous rice in a bowl then slowly add water until you get the right consistency.
4. Shape dough into an egg-sized oval and flatten with a thumb.
5. Drop palitaw in boiling water and scoop out as soon as they float.
6. Drain and roll in grated coconut.
sarap nito with muscovado sugar! :D

ReplyDeletesarap naman... when you say glutinous rice, yung flour sya diba? I've been wanting to do this kaya lang kasi walang coconut sa pinas hay! I might try hydrating a dried coconut powder... baka magwork :-D yes, bigla nagka idea!
