Puto Bumbong
It’s hard to miss Puto Bumbong in the Philippines due to its bright purple color. While the origin of this popular Noche Buena snack is not known, it is believed that it dates back to the early Spanish era - brought over from Mexico by Legazpi and Urdaneta. Though it is traditionally cooked in bamboo steamers, Anton Amoncio has found an easier yet equally tasty way to make this chewy rice cake, giving you the same signature texture and shape! Perfect for you to enjoy with your wholesome Christmas Eve dinner.

Steam
