It is interesting that in every country there is a dessert related to egg.In England, there is the Custard Tart which is similar to the Chinese Egg Tart.The British one tends to be firmer and sprinkled with nutmeg or cinammon, whereas the Chinese one has a flaky pastry base.In the Phillipines, they have the EGG PIE, it has a shortcrust pastry and firm custard filling inside, very similar to the British custard tart, however the appearance is different, the top is brown.The egg pie has a very ric
In England, there is the Custard Tart which is similar to the Chinese Egg Tart.
The British one tends to be firmer and sprinkled with nutmeg or cinammon, whereas the Chinese one has a flaky pastry base.
In the Phillipines, they have the EGG PIE, it has a shortcrust pastry and firm custard filling inside, very similar to the British custard tart, however the appearance is different, the top is brown.
The egg pie has a very rich egg custard filling, it is typically baked so that the exposed custard on top is browned.
Egg pie:I really enjoyed eating the Egg pie, firstly the portion is much bigger than a custard tart, hence I satisfied my sweet craving.
Next I tried the BUKO PIE
Buko pie is a traditional Filipino pastry style, young-coconut (malauhog) filled pie. It is made with just young coconuts and has no cream. Instead, the pie utilizes sweetened condensed milk.
It was a new and interesting experience because the only time I have eaten young coconut is spooning it out of it shell after drink the water inside.
Sometimes it can be found in desserts, but this is just amazing, a whole pie filled with slices of young coconut.
The buko pie has is made from butter pastry, the same type use for meat pies and chicken pies.The pie feels so soft and slightly viscous when you bite into it, but dosnt mush like mango.
These pies are super cheap at $10 per slice, which I would be happy having a slice with tea for tea time!!
