Filipino ensaymada is a type of sweet bread that is a popular pastry in the Philippines. It is a soft, fluffy, and buttery bread that is typically topped with grated cheese, sugar, and butter. The taste of ensaymada is sweet and creamy, with a hint of saltiness from the cheese topping. The origin of ensaymada can be traced back to Spain, where it is a type of pastry that is typically made with pork lard. In the Philippines, ensaymada has been adapted to use butter instead of pork lard and has become a beloved pastry in the country. To make ensaymada, a dough is typically made with flour, yeast, sugar, salt, eggs, milk, and butter. The dough is then rolled out and coiled into a spiral shape before being left to rise.
