Comment on Polvoron, a sweet treat for moms by Daisy

HI Tina,
Your recipe looks simple and delicious. I see you individually wrap the polvoron. Where do you get the wrapper? I find some cellophane locally but not sure if they are food grade so I settle for plastic wrap. I used to also use the polvoron mold but they gave me blisters. I have an easier way of molding the polvoron. Email me if you want to know how. Polvoron is one of my families’ favorites.

Tina: My son-in-law makes special breakfasts with pancakes and bacon as well. His recipe is very similar to yours but he adds a little vanilla. Not sure what the vanilla actually does, but there is a difference in the taste and they are delicious.

Hi Tin,
I’m hoping that your dad is recovering well from his prior health scare. I drink my veggies mixed with fruits. I invested in the Breville juicer and it just makes consumption easier. Buy organic produce but fruits like pineapple with hard skin don’t have to be. There are so many smoothie and juicer recipes, all tastes delicious no matter what combo it is. I always add a cup of coconut water for added electrolytes, especially in these summer months. We should all take advantage of our summer produce when they’re fresh, cheap and easily accessible.
I love the photos. You’re giving me tons of ideas since I am not really a kitchen kind of girl.

I just made these. I used all the same ing. but I used coconut oil instead of shortening. They were delicious! Will use this to make pancakes again!

This is the recipe I whip up and just recently discovered that if I put a quarter cup sour cream instead of oil in the wet ingredients I get a buttermilk like pancake, almost a melt in your mouth kind of thing. I know it isn’t the “healthy” thing to do but I make pancakes so rarely that it is a nice touch. Also using half whole wheat gives them a very hearty flavor. Bon Appetite!

If the definition of bacon is “cured pig belly” then you would be correct in saying that PORK bacon cannot be uncured. However, turkey bacon (although arguably not bacon) can be uncured. What’s with the hostility over cured v. uncured anyway? Who really cares?

Anyway, thanks for the recipe! I have been trying to make pancakes for a while now and I have yet to find a recipe that I actually like. I will give this one a try.
