Kutsinta

One of my favorite kakanin when I was young..


Ingredients:

•2 cups all purpose flour

•1 ½ cup sugar

•2 eggyolks

•3 cups water

•2 tsp lye water (lihiya)

•2 tsp vanilla extract, optional

•Anatto powder (atswete powder), the more you put the darker the color will be

Procedure:

1. Ihalo ang lahat ng nakalistang ingredients until well combined.

2. Salain ng dalawa o hanggang tatlong beses bago ilipat sa molde. Wag punuin ang molde, kalahati o lampas kalahati lamang ang ilagay, hanggang mga ¾.

3. Steam for 20-30 minutes until set. Pag luto na, wag agad tanggalin sa molde, hayaan munang mag set pa ito.

4. Serve with fresh grated coconut or with cheese on top.
