Pastillas


1 can condensed milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar, sifted
3 small boxes of powdered milk, sifted

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until it has a dough-like texture.

Scoop a small amount and form it into cylinders.
Roll it in sugar and then serve for dessert.





VERDICT
WILL: Ate April is from Manila then. Each table she put pastillas, yema and sweetened tamarind. That is the only time that I saw Ms Agnes crave for something. She was fallen in love with pastillas. So I asked Abbey to make some for her and of course for me. 
      After 2 weekes, he made it and Abbey nailed the taste! I really like the very sweet taste that this mixed milk gave to my taste bud. A perfect dessert after our dinner. Thanks Abbey. Such a sweet guy!

Puto Recipe


I was looking for something to cook for my wifey and I remembered that she wants puto. Below is the recipe:

4 cups flour, sifted
2 cups sugar, sifted
2 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 raw egg
1 teaspoon pandan paste or essence
2 1/2 cups of water for puto mixture
Slices of cheese
Water for steaming

In a bowl mix the dry ingredients well then add egg, butter, milk, pandan and water. Mix them thoroughly.
Pour into individual molds.
Put the mold in the steamer for 20 mins. You can use cheese cloth so water vapor will not fall into the mixture.
Put the cheese and steam again for 2-5 minutes.



VERDICT
WILL: One week before that, he is telling me that he will do something for his weekend. I know there is something about his passion in kitchen activities but I am surprised to see a pandan puto on out table. A perfect match with out miswa. 
      He packed some and gave it to my colleagues and one blurted "sobrang sarap ate", I am so flattered to have a husband that his de-stresser is cooking. 
      Thanks baby, next time if there will be a get-together, this is what we will bring :)

(3D) Piranha 3DD


ABBEY: Another Piranha movie. I didn’t like the first one but I told myself to give it another try. Anyways, this is for free. 

“The Big Wet” is a water park that opens in time for summer; offering leisure and “pleasure” for the patrons. Water is being pumped out into the nearby lake which alters the behavior of flesh-hungry piranha. Cameo role of David Hasselhoff and other slapsticks had me burst into laughter. Helpless victims tried to get out of the water fast to save their own lives. But little did they know that the fish started learning to “walk” J Compliments to the sexy ladies but not to the one who went under the knife.


WILL: Are you looking for a thriller, comedy, and love story film rolled in one? Well, this Piranha 3DD is not the film you are looking. 
     This movie is full of boobies and unreasonable storyline. I think the lesson to this is parents/elders should listen sometimes to younger people. 3/10. 
     Oh, Golden Village Pictures, thank you so much for the premiere night 3D tickets. :)
