One midnight, I caught him tinkering with something in the kitchen. -) The gulaman she used to cook before had coconut milk and raisins or pineapples in it
Some of her bestsellers were the savory lumpia (fried spring rolls) accompanied with spicy vinegar dip, and sweet treats like turon (crispy banana rolls), banana-que (sugar-coated saba banana), maruya (banana fritters), kamote-que (sugar-coated sweet potatoes), karioka (sugar-glazed coconut balls), maja blanca (coconut pudding) and the ever timeless Palitaw (Sticky Rice Dumplings), which would never be complete without sago’t gulaman samalamig (pearl and jelly coolers) on the side
There are many variations of this summer treat, but traditionally, halo-halo is served with leche flan, boiled kidney beans, sweet potatoes, nata de coco, tapioca, macapuno, langka, gulaman (mixed together) and is usually topped with ube flavoured ice cream
Ingredients include boiled kidney beans, garbanzos, sugar palm fruit (kaong), coconut sport (macapuno), and plantains sweetened with sugar, jackfruit (langkâ), gulaman, tapioca, nata de coco, sweet potato (kamote), cheese, pounded crushed young rice (pinipig)
I barely had room for dessert but I went ahead and had pandan gulaman (jello), pichi pichi (cassava cake sprinkled with grated coconut) and some leche flan (milk flan)
Traditionally, halo-halo is served with leche flan (creme caramel), boiled kidney beans, sweet potatoes, nata de coco, tapioca, macapuno, langka, and gulaman all mixed together (hence the name)
Gulaman clear). It’s a bunch of cube jellies filled with condensed milk and cream. That’s the main purpose of this dessert and there are lot of benefits and advantages you can enjoy with coffee jelly
