The Funahashi Times No.24　フィリピンのお米を使ったスイーツ『カラマイ』

Hello there,

Filipinos love rice. It’s the main food in Philippines. We eat rice every morning, lunch, and evening. We even eat rice for snacks. Just like in Japan, we also have rice cakes. One of the types of rice cakes in Philippines is Kalamay. You can buy it anywhere in Philippines. It is made with sticky rice, brown sugar, and coconut milk. Many people like to add different flavors like purple yam or vanilla to it. It is usually served on banana leaves. It feels like mochi in the mouth. It’s soft and chewy. I think you will like it.
