Description

Kutsinta is a popular Filipino delicacy that is made of rice flour, brown sugar, and lye water. However, not everyone has access to rice flour, especially during the pandemic. This recipe provides an alternative way of making kutsinta without rice flour.

Prep Time

10 minutes

Cook Time

20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup tapioca starch
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup annatto water (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp lye water (lihiya)

Equipment

  • Steamer
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Muffin molds or cupcake liners

Method

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, tapioca starch, brown sugar, and baking powder. Whisk until well combined.
  2. Add water, annatto water (optional), and lye water (lihiya). Mix until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
  3. Grease muffin molds or line them with cupcake liners. Fill them with the batter until 3/4 full.
  4. Steam the kutsinta for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  5. Remove from the steamer and let it cool for a few minutes before unmolding.
  6. Serve with grated coconut or caramel sauce.

Notes

  • Make sure to use food-grade lye water (lihiya) and handle it with care as it can cause burns.
  • Annatto water gives the kutsinta its distinct orange color but it can be omitted if not available.
  • Leftover kutsinta can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

    Recipe Tips

  • If you don't have muffin molds, you can use silicone cupcake liners or small bowls lined with parchment paper.
  • If you want a sweeter kutsinta, you can add more brown sugar to the batter.
  • Make sure to grease the molds or liners before adding the batter to prevent sticking.
  • Don't overfill the molds or liners to prevent the kutsinta from overflowing during steaming.
  • If you don't have a steamer, you can use a large pot with a steamer basket or a colander placed on top of a pot of boiling water.
  • Caramel sauce can be made by melting brown sugar and water in a saucepan until it thickens and turns golden brown.
  • Grated coconut can be toasted in a pan for added flavor and texture.
