About Filipino puto rice cakes
Puto is a beloved Filipino steamed rice cake known for its soft, fluffy texture and subtly sweet flavor. Traditionally, it is made from rice flour, water, and sugar, then steamed to perfection. Variations often include toppings such as cheese, butter, or salted egg for added flavor. Puto is a staple in Filipino cuisine, frequently served during festivals, celebrations, or alongside savory dishes like dinuguan (pork blood stew). Nutritionally, puto is low in fat and provides a quick source of carbohydrates, making it a convenient energy boost. It is typically cholesterol-free unless enriched with butter or cheese. However, its refined sugar content requires moderation for those monitoring blood sugar or calorie intake. For a more health-conscious version, whole-grain rice flour and natural sweeteners can be used to retain its delightful essence while enhancing fiber and nutrient content.
