Ala Mae’z Puto

PUTO is my specialty and I named it “Ala Mae’z Puto”. Puto is a type of steamed rice cake usually served as snacks accompanied with savory dishes such as dinuguan or pancit in Philippine cuisine and historically originated from Asian countries such as Japan, China, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia. It is often eaten with grated cheese. It is my signature dish and my family loved my Ala Mae’z Puto. Hopefully you will try my specialty. Enjoy!!!
