Puto (Philippine Rice Cake)

Puto is an all-time Filipino favorite kakanin or snacks, that is always present in almost every gatherings. This goes well with coffee and to make it more interesting you can eat it together with freshly grated coconut meat or "niyog". The juice of the coconut meat when chewing really blends well with the puto.
