In Spain we use pork fat to make ensaimada. That make really sense.

😋from start to finish, looks absolutely delicious 😋. I want the recipe

[@minsugagenius7]

My best friend's mum made us this once and I've been crying to try it once again. It's so genius to add cheese. Its such a perfect balance of salty tangy flavour with sweet sugary cream.

is it the Lapis Talas Bogor thing? because it looks similar, especially with cream& cheddar as toppings😅

[@Eren_yeager0727]

@@davinemermaid2179 it's similar

[@cynthiashores57]

That's pretty smart! Cheese (assuming this is typical cheese used in this dessert) is usually high in protein and that helps to lower the surge of insulin into your blood stream when eaten with something sweet. - if that makes sense. ❤😅❤

Moms.. MOMS?!

[@crowbard]

I think she's explained before that her parents got divorced and her dad remarried so she's got two moms! (One being her first and the other being her step mom.) Either way, (mostly in response to the first response in this thread) even if the mom was the one who remarried and it happened to be to a woman, the poster of this video would still be blessed to have three parents who love her. No biggie if the mom was lgbtq+, yknow? (Again, I don't believe that the moms are married to each other, the dad remarried and married a woman, making her her second mom.) Edit: wording for clarity

Ensaymadas are not.

[@kalmahnalyd4615]

That's a Spanish food tho

[@seraphicchic8829]

Yes, Filipino pastries are delicious! Ensaymada with a y is a Filipino pastry. This version and its ingredients have Filipino flavors and twists💗 Many Filipino foods were influenced by the Spanish because they were colonized by Spain for more than 300 Years. Like in Latin America, many Spanish influences are ingrained in the Philippine culture.

[@talkaboutrandon7870]

I'm not a cheese person, I'm not lactose but it still make my day hell. But ensymada is my lifeline back in highschool. People in our cafeteria knows my preferences so they custom my ensymada with less cheese. I was so obsessed with it for 4 years that my mom needs to intervene, now I only eat it occasionally. 😂 I would love to have a taste with your ube bread tho

[@carolk5770]

Ensaimadas here in Spain don’t have Ube, I’m curious of how it would taste like with Ube. And it doesn’t have cheese. They are little or medium buns shaped like a snail’s shell with powder sugar on top, I would really like to try one of those ensaimadas, they look tasty : )
