Why does it work
- If you make your own jelly, you can control your taste and sweetness.
- The use of coconut in many forms contains the salad with flavors and different textures.
The fruit salad, a mixture of fresh or conventional fruits, was introduced to the Filipino diet during the American occupation. Like Emutido (Filipino meat roast) and Filipino SpaghettiThe fruit salad was filipined – a term for dishes that borrowed and were applied to the local flavors and the use of available ingredients. Nowadays, most Filipino versions of fruit salad use a combination of cocktail and table cream in canned food (often as light cream or coffee cream, which has between 18% and 30% milk fat).
Buko Pandan is a kind of variation of this filipinized fruit salad. Originally compiled on the island of Bohol in the Eastern Visayas region, this lush dessert is made Pandan Jelly, crushed young coconut meat (known as Buko), table cream and sweetened condensed milk. It is widespread across the country and is served at home, in restaurants and often in Fiestas. Buko Pandan is also a popular aroma option for other desserts such as ice cream, pastries and cakes.
I remember that I did this dish with my Lola (grandmother). We would visit the nearby Palengke or the market to buy agar agar-a gelier broker that was derived from seaweed, which was sold in colorful dried bars-and fresh Buko by a coconut dealer. In order to select the perfect coconut, he knocked on coconuts looking for the latest, juicy (a hollow noise shows an older coconut with less juice). Armed with a machete, he corded the top, shaved the outer shell and let the juice sip. After he was finished, he cut the coconut in half and scratched the meat so that they could take home.

This recipe is inspired by the one I made. In contrast to simple water, I use coconut water for the jelly to infuse it with a subtle sweet coconut taste. I also reach for a gelatin powder powder-in the United States, which can be found with a less brittle, lively texture in the USA than after Agar-Agar. A hint of Buko Pandan Extract, an extensive flavored extract in the Philippines, ensures a lot of lively green and grassy vanilla deaths.
For the creamy component, I use unsweetened coconut cream and sweetened condensed coconut milk to bring the coconut in the center-a movement that makes this salad milk freedom. I like to mix Macapuno (preserved young coconut strips) and Nata de Coco (seasoned coconut gel made of fermented coconut water) for additional chewing, both of whom complement the leap. Finally, a pinch of roasted Pinipig or beaten young rice takes care, on the above a little crunch.
