Ingredients in Making Puto

 2 cups of rice (variety of rice RC10)
 ¼ kilo of refined sugar
 1 cup day- old cooked rice (BAHAW)
 1 cup coconut oil (GATA)
 1 tablespoon of baking powder
 Iodized salt (to taste)
 Cheese (strip cut)
Materials needed:

non-reactive bowl for soaking


rice; fine-holed colander for
draining, or a large strainer;
blender; large piece of muslin or
clean kitchen towel
Procedure in Making Puto
(Proseso sa Paghimo Sang Puto)
1. Wash the rice twice, draining both times, then
add the 4 cups of water and soak for 24-48
hours, but at the very least 8 hours.
2. DRAIN, reserving the soaking water and
putting it back in with the rest of the rice. Run
through a blender with just enough of the
soaking water to keep the machine moving.
Wrap in muslin and drain forb 24 hours, hung
from a post or kitchen cabinet knob, with a
bowl underneath to catch any drips.
4. Let the remaining rice sit for 18 more
hours in the soaking water, covered
with a clean kitchen cloth (DON’T LET
THE CLOTH TOUCH THE RICE OR THE
WATER). After 18 hours, drain,
reserving the water. Run through the
blender along with 2 tablespoons of
day-old cooked rice, 2 tablespoons
sugar, plus the soaking water, just
enough for the mixture to keep
moving in the blender..
You will have a very thick batter.
Let this mixture sit 6 more hours,
covered with a clean kitchen cloth
4. Combine the batter the refined
sugar, coconut milk baking
powder and iodized salt to taste
mix well. Poured on a lined
stainless can with pre-cut banana
leaf.
6. Steam a small amount in a greased
puto molder for 15 minutes over
medium heat. Evaluate how the
mixture rises, how sweet it is, if you
need to balance out the flavors by
adding a bit more salt, etc. If you
think the puto would benefit from
some baking powder, add up to 1
tablespoon, depending on how well
the fermentation worked. How much
the natural leavening has been
developed.
