As the holiday season approaches, traditional treats start appearing everywhere, including the fridge. Suman, a sweet, sticky roll made from glutinous rice and wrapped in banana leaves is one such treat. Prepared and cooked with coconut milk and sugar, the rolls are then wrapped and steamed.
Great with some Queso de Bola cheese and hot chocolate for breakfast or mid-afternoon snacks. Though it's available year round, nothing quite like enjoying this treat during the holidays. Bring on the holidays!

Well, you've introduced me to something new. Very interesting treat. :) I'm not sure you heard, but you have an award at my blog dated back on 11-22 (cranberry chutney post). Hope you saw it and liked it. :)
ReplyDeleteHey Ramona, thank you so much for the award, awesome! I am so honored and grateful! Thanks for stopping by, Ramona!
ReplyDeleteSuman is new to me, but it looks fabulous… I'm a lover of all things rice, plus sweets are my life, so I think it's safe to say I'd love this...
