About Puto with cheese

Puto with Cheese is a classic Filipino delicacy commonly enjoyed as a snack or dessert. This steamed rice cake is made with basic ingredients such as rice flour, sugar, water, and baking powder, often enriched with milk or coconut milk for added creaminess. The batter is poured into molds, steamed, and topped with a slice of cheese for a savory twist that complements its slightly sweet, chewy base. Originating from Philippine cuisine, Puto is celebrated for its simplicity and versatility. Nutritionally, it provides a source of carbohydrates for energy and calcium from the cheese topping. However, depending on its preparation, it may be high in sugar and lack substantial protein or fiber. Moderation is key when enjoying Puto with Cheese as part of a balanced diet, especially when paired with other nutrient-rich foods like fresh fruits or nuts.
