Buko pie

Buko pie

My tita Kulit keeps buying me creamy buko pie from Valerio’s. Buko pie is made with sweet, soft, young coconut pieces scattered in a custardy creamy pie. If you want you can use elderly coconuts, but that would be disrespectful. Buko means “innocent coconut” in Tagalog. (Tita Kulit is not really my tita, salamat sa dios).

  • hey! I’m pinoy ang I know that buko simply means coconut. Your tita might be teasing you, hence the name Kulit… and Tagalog of dios is Diyos. (you mixed it up with your Spanish).

    You’re blog is a really interesting read coz now I know how you guys (Filipinos who grew up in the US) talk.

    hehe. Good day!
