About Suman
Suman is a traditional Filipino delicacy made primarily of glutinous rice, coconut milk, and sugar, all wrapped in banana leaves and steamed to perfection. This beloved treat is often enjoyed as a snack or dessert and comes in various regional styles, sometimes incorporating ingredients like ube, chocolate, or even mango for extra flavor. While suman is naturally rich in carbohydrates, making it a good source of energy, its glutinous rice base means it has a high glycemic index. Coconut milk provides healthy fats, but moderation is key due to the saturated fat content. Being minimally processed, suman is free from artificial additives, making it a wholesome choice compared to many store-bought desserts. Its charm also lies in the simplicity and natural ingredients, making it more nutrient-dense when compared to overly sugary snacks. Pairing it with fresh fruit or enjoying it in small portions helps balance its nutritional profile.
