BIBINGKA (FILIPINO COCONUT-RICE CAKE)



Bibingka (Filipino Coconut-Rice Cake) image

This recipe for bibingka, the celebratory rice cake traditionally eaten around Christmastime in the Philippines, comes from the New York restaurateur Nicole Ponseca. It's a savory side dish with an edge of sweetness, and she always includes it on her Thanksgiving table. Cooked in cast-iron for a deeply golden crust, and hiding slices of salty preserved eggs, the bibingka is topped with grated cheese that gets brown and crisp. Though Ms. Ponseca prefers bibingka without additional coconut on top, traditionalists may want to add a sprinkle.

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups/320 grams rice flour
1/2 cup/55 grams glutinous rice flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup/150 grams granulated sugar
1/3 cup/76 grams unsalted butter, melted, plus more melted butter for topping, and butter for greasing pan
1 1/2 cups/355 milliliters coconut milk
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1 banana leaf (optional)
1 salted duck egg, sliced (optional)
1 cup/80 grams grated queso de bola or Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup/52 grams grated coconut, for topping (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together rice flours, baking powder, salt and sugar. Make a well in the center and pour in melted butter, coconut milk and eggs. Whisk mixture until smooth.
  • Wash and dry banana leaf, if using, and line a 9-inch cast-iron skillet with it. (One leaf should be enough, but if more are needed, make sure to overlap leaves so there are no gaps.) Butter the leaf, and trim edges leaving a 1- to 2-inch overhang. Alternatively, generously grease skillet with butter.
  • Pour mixture into skillet and bake 15 minutes. Remove from oven and top with salted egg and cheese. Return skillet to oven until bibingka is golden and browned, and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes more. Brush with more melted butter and sprinkle with coconut, if desired.

Yield Makes about 15-20 squares.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 lb sweet rice flour
2 1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
3 cups milk (fresh or evaporated)
5 eggs, beaten
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup coconut flakes

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe glutinous rice. This will give your bibingka the best flavor and texture.
  • Soak the glutinous rice overnight. This will help to soften the rice and make it easier to cook.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven to cook the bibingka. This will help to prevent the bibingka from burning.
  • Cook the bibingka over low heat. This will help to prevent the bibingka from burning and will allow it to cook evenly.
  • Stir the bibingka frequently. This will help to prevent the bibingka from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Add the coconut milk and sugar towards the end of the cooking process. This will help to prevent the coconut milk and sugar from burning.
  • Top the bibingka with grated coconut and cheese before serving. This will add extra flavor and texture to the bibingka.
