Facts About Piaya
Piaya is a delightful treat from the Philippines, particularly cherished in Negros Occidental. Picture a flatbread that is both simple and delectable, filled with sweet muscovado sugar and a hint of glucose syrup. The dough is rolled out, sprinkled with sesame seeds for added crunch, and then cooked on a griddle until it reaches perfection.
For those in the mood to try something different, piaya comes with various fillings such as ube (purple yam) or mango, offering a unique twist to the traditional flavor. There's even a smaller, crispier version called piayito, which delivers a satisfying crunch in every bite.
Whether you opt for the classic version or one of the innovative variations, piaya is a must-try for anyone looking to explore Filipino cuisine.
