6-21-2015: Puto ug Sikwate

Sticky Rice with Mango Marmalade with Hot Chocolate
One of my favorite breakfast food combos is the puto with sikwate.  Puto is steamed sticky rice with coconut milk while sikwate is the native hot chocolate. The combination also goes so well with some ripe mangoes.  My two ways of eating the breakfast or snack pair are either I pour the sweet sikwate to the puto or I get a spoonful of puto and dip it in a cup of hot sikwate. Pictured above is the version of The Chocolate Chamber of this delightful combo.

When was the last time you had puto and sikwate?
