“Who wants Palitaw?”
Palitaw - Palitaw (from litaw, the Tagalog word for “float” or “rise”) is a small, flat, sweet rice cakeeaten in the Philippines. They are made from washed, soaked, and ground malagkit (sticky rice). After excess water is let out from the grinding process, scoops of the batter are rolled and flattened to a circular shape and cooked by dropping into boiling water; floating to the surface is an indication that they’re done. Before serving, they are dipped in grated coconut, and presented with a separate mix of sugar and toasted sesame seeds.<sup class="footnote" id="fnrev01aa901ca68a4a39bff6774070418f26-1">1</sup>
