    Never ko pa narinig tong pagkain na to pero gusto ko i try at gawin din on my own 🥺. Ang galing and especially ung history behind it, ang cool pakinggan kasi ang simple ng ingredients pero very unique at the same time tapos ung process ng pagluto parang ngayon pako naka rinig ng pinoy cookies na may parang "glaze" tapos ung shape nya kakaiba. Then from what I can understand, ung dahon at rind ng sinasabi nya na dayap ang source of flavoring nya. Ngayon ko palang din narinig yung dayap na yan, napa google ako. Alam ko may gumagamit ng dahon ng calamansi para flavoring ng puto pero ung ganito never ko inisip na pwede pala. Very curious tuloy ako sa lasa kasi from the looks of it masarap sya.

    Interesting! Guam has something similar. Theirs is called guyuria pronounced gud-zu-ria. But they use fresh coconut milk instead of carabao milk. Maybe influenced by the Spaniards. The Chamorros also use the back of the fork to form the dough as well as fry it and use sugar to coat it.

    I grew up eating this! I'm from Bulan, Sorsogon but never knew this started from Bulacan. My amazing chef of an uncle, may he rest in peace, would cook Gurgurya for me in my early childhood. I can still taste it to this day. Sadly, I don't have his exact recipe but I recreate this for my mom and children now. Continuing the legacy of my beloved uncle! 🙏🏻❤️

    Thank you, Erwan and Featr team for featuring this with a recipe, too. God speed! I adore your videos immensely!

    Grew up in Pampanga and had these all the time as snacks! Then we moved to Guam and they also have a local snack called Guyuria and it is almost identical to this recipe.
