Angko
January 1, 2010When my favorite sister (I only have one) went to Camarines Norte, all I asked for is for her to bring me some food treats. When she got back, among the things she brought were angko.
Found only (I think) in a certain town somewhere in Camarines Norte (either in Daet or in Vinzons, I am not sure), angko is a thumb sized treat made of ground sticky rice. Inside, the filling is made of sweet ground peanuts, like a peanut butter.
Update. What is fuuny-weird about this snack is that it is not well known, even to the Bicolanos. I am willing to bet that most of the Bicolanos I know have never seen this, much less tasted this goodie. Which is a bit sad because as you bite into it, the delicate blandness of the rice gives way to the sweet, nutty surprise inside.

Tumira kami sa jose Panganiban, Camarines Norte, maliit pa ako pero i know meron kaming kinakain na ganito.
Then in our consultancy, I used to fly to Daet para mameet ang mga clients on weekend.
Pag walang available na flight, nagbabus ako. aircon. then bili ako ng mga pasalubong. kasama ang formosa pineapple. formosa ba yon? yong maliliit?
gusto ko pa yong sapin-sapin.
