Ibos kag kalamay nga pula

While others are crazy for ibos (suman) partenred with ripe mango or a hot cup of tsokolate, I grew up having it simply partnered with kalamay nga pula (muscovado sugar).The subtle flavour of the sticky rice cooked in coconut milk is greatly complemented by the "healthier" sweetness of the molasses sugar that you'll keep eating on and on until you realized you've eaten more than enough. When was the last time you had this native dessert combo?
