Taho

If you’ve ever visited the Philippines, you’ll know very well the sound of street vendors calling “Tahoooooo”! Served as a delicious breakfast or a treat at any other time of day, Taho is made of layers of lush silken tofu, rich sweet syrup and pops of tapioca pearls. It is traditionally served warm, but can also be eaten cold. I made mine using boba pearls, purchased at my local Asian grocer, because I love the drama of those big pearls, but you can also use traditional tapioca pearls or even sago.

Healthy Buko Pandan

Buko Pandan is a beloved Filipino dessert that combines the refreshing flavours of young coconut (buko) and pandan leaves. This lighter version reduces the sugar content and incorporates chia seeds for added nutrition. The result is a creamy, fragrant dessert that’s perfect for warm days or as a light end to a meal. The green colour from the pandan gives it a vibrant appearance, while the coconut provides a tropical twist. This dessert is not only delicious but also offers some nutritional benefits from the coconut and chia seeds.
