Bibingka-Filipino Christmas Traditions

Bibingka




Wikipedia describes Bibingka - /bee-bing-kah/ as a Filipino rice cake made from galapong, baked in a special clay pot, lined with a piece of banana leaf, with live coals on top and underneath. It is topped with slices of kesong puti (white cheese) and itlog na maalat (salted duck eggs). The newly-cooked bibingka is spread with butter and sometimes sprinkled with sugar then served with niyog (grated coconut).
