I have been on the web looking for a site that is about Filipino snacks,
unfortunately I haven't seen exactly what I've been looking for. So, I
made a list of the foods that I've been craving for a long time.
This list is all about Filipino snacks that mostly Filipinos always bought while they're on their way home as a pasalubong or gift for their family or loved ones, specially if they came from a long trip or have been to a vacation.
Barquillos - A thin rolled cookies, mixtures of milk, flour and egg. Iloilo, a province in western Visayas, is a well-known province for making barquillos and other sweet delicacies. It's like the Champola wafer sticks and Stick-O's. Good to eat with a hot chocolate and/or along with a scoop of your favorite flavor of ice cream.
Kamote (Sweet potato) Chips and Cassava Chips - This two chips may look like the same, but they differ from the texture and taste. Sweet potato or Kamote are sliced thinly to ensure the crunchy texture after frying while the Cassava, which is also sliced thinly, may appear to have a bubbly-like appearance on the layer of a thin-sliced cassava due to heat pressure while cooking. Kamote chips are best if they're flavored with honey and Cassava chips goes along with cheese flavor and barbeque. You can go and visit Market Manila for their recipe of Kamote chips.
Shingaling -I've been eating this food since I was a child and it was and is the best snack ever. Made out of Thick noodles, dried over night and deep fried with seasoning and red pepper until it reaches it's golden brown color. Visit Loqal.ph where Marjorie Gorospe shared her story of A snack fondly called ‘shing-aling’.
Banana Chips - Sliced thinly and deep fried with sugar, banana chips is one of the classic Pinoy snacks.
Ampao - From the word itself Ampao or hollow, this food is made out of sesame and a thin wafer-like filling or sometimes is made out of puffed rice and coated with sugar caramel.
These sweet delicacies and snacks are mostly found in Pasalubong stores, bus stops and or supermarkets.
