These cook faster and in half the time in the Instant Pot multi-cooker/ pressure cooker. A rich, thick coconut syrup is boiled separately and served as a topping option. Other topping suggestions for this type of suman are latik (fried coconut sprinkles) mixed with sugar or freshly-grated coconut. Pair suman with fresh, ripe, sweet mangoes in season and it’s the perfect snack or dessert. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/instant-pot-suman-sa-lihiya-sticky-rice-logs-with-coconut/feed/ 2 8744 https://thequirinokitchen.com/green-tea-pound-cake/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/green-tea-pound-cake/#respond Fri, 22 Feb 2019 05:00:03 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=8382 Just a few ingredients are all you need for this light, moist Green Tea Pound Cake which has a pleasurable delicate, green tea flavor.

When my cousin Janet brought me back salted egg chips as pasalubong (gifts from travel) from the Philippines, my family craved for more long after the chips were gone. These chips are not yet sold widely in America, if at all. So I made my own. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-salted-egg-flavored-potato-chips/feed/ 4 7568 https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-bake-homemade-cheese-crackers-with-queso-de-bola/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-bake-homemade-cheese-crackers-with-queso-de-bola/#respond Wed, 09 Jan 2019 23:07:27 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=7505 These bite-sized, crisp and savory Homemade Cheese Crackers with Queso de Bola were baked using edam cheese which had a tart, sharp flavor and a dry texture that blended well with the ingredients. If more convenient, use sharp cheddar instead. The baking process is simple. Just mix the dough, refrigerate for easier handling, roll out and bake. Baking these crackers is a good idea especially if you have an abundance of cheeses from the holidays or merely want to diffuse the rich decadence from the heavy desserts of Christmas. Pack these in airtight, covered tins or cookie jars. Serve as snacks or appetizers.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-bake-homemade-cheese-crackers-with-queso-de-bola/feed/ 0 7505 https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-bake-cheese-cupcakes/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-bake-cheese-cupcakes/#comments Wed, 12 Dec 2018 22:04:56 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=7477 These Filipino Cheese Cupcakes are popular among Pinoys and often sold at Philippine bakeries.

I make it from leftover boiled or roast chicken, too.
