Rare Filipino Recipe: Calamansi Nata De Coco Dessert
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 มิ.ย. 2024
- Calamansi stuffed with nata de coco is a dessert that’s born from the wildest of imaginations. Nina Velasco has been making and selling this unique dessert for the past 30 years, using an heirloom recipe that’s been passed down from generations in her family.
It’s been written in books and newspapers but seeing the process from start to finish is a beautiful method that deserves more recognition. Biting into this small and umami-filled piece of history feels like a delightful peek into the colorful story of the family behind the artform.

@FEATR, I hope you would release a book featuring these rare recipes. There are a lot of Filipino recipes that are not yet known to most Filipinos and with different regions having their own way of cooking these recipes. These deserves to be passed on to every generation and should not be forgotten. And thank you very much for always featuring the best foods within the Philippine islands.❤
Schools should be teaching this
Couldn't agree more! Kudos to team Featr for doing these videos!
I need this 🥹
Internet and social media is thr answer. Books are too old school. No one is buying recipe books anymore.
@@erls5206 Physical copies are forever while digital can be erased.
Heirloom recipes like these and the stories behind them should be properly documented and kept as historical and provincial/regional culinary treasures.
Thank you, FEATR team, for all your hard work in sharing such heritage and interesting finds❣
It should be taught in school
Yes Pagsanjan Laguna ❤
Kamatis din dito sa amin, Pagsanjan
I Agree with You ...
0:50 Oh gosh as an Indonesian, we can relate to this so much! Indonesian desserts are majority aren't baked either-even if a little of them baked, its using traditional 'oven' made from clay. Most of our desserts are made by boiling, steaming, frying, or just searing it on some flat surface (pan, etc). I think this might be maritime Southeast Asia culture's similarity. Pretty sure Malaysian desserts are mostly like this as well.
I love how she is not forcing her kids to preserve their legacy. She is letting them choose the path they choose, pero sana may magmana ☺️☺️
Pangarap ng prof ko to nung college. She was once called "Sago Queen" of the Philippines because of her intrinsic study about the real Sago (s.n. Metroxylon sagu) a.k.a landang in bisaya. Hope ma feautre nyo rin. Starch source sya sa mga marshy towns of Agusan in Mindanao and also some parts of Visayas. Staple food sya in Papau New Guinea and some parts of Indonesia and Malaysia.
Bakit di common yang metroxylon? Nung nagsimula ako magbasa tungkol sa sago nalaman ko na hindi siya totoong sago kundi cassava. Metroxylon kaya gamit sa sago pearls dati bago naintroduce ang cassava?
@@TaLeng2023 kunti lang may alam unlike cassava na anywhere meron. Tapioca pearls na yan since. Sagu usually ginagamit lang pampalapot sa "binignit" a.k.a lugaw, tapos sa Agusan Marsh, parang rice ng mga native. But in Malaysia and Indonesia, they use it in noodles.
@@TaLeng2023sago is from palm sago. Baka meron ng alternative source for sagu since yung palm is pinuputol yun to create sagu tapos parang more than 10 years bago magmature ang palm bago maharvest.
up! Not everyone knows about landang. It's tedious process and it's tie to our balangay boat here in agusan is a story I wish many people know about
Another underrated old school sweet is minatamis na santol and minatamis na kamias. You have to dry out the fruits in the sun with lime (apog) and then boil them in syrup. It's still sold by Bulakan Sweets in Retiro.
Thank you, FEATR, for giving a voice to the common folk trying to preserve our heritage. I'm from Pagsanjan, born and raised, but only now became aware of this delicacy.
Great to hear! We hope you get to try it for yourself!
FEATR should publish a coffee table book/recipe book to featuring authentic Filipino dishes. Maybe 3 set of coffee table books featuring Desserts, Main Dishes and Preserves 😊
Yayy!! My grandma is in the video!!
Philippine Heirloom Crafts, Arts, Food, etc should be part of our schools curriculum.
Sad reality, all heirloom recipes are slowly fading away due to lack of interests and family is shifting to more easier and "commercialized" products for profit convenience. Thank you FEATR for featuring these mouthwatering calamansi nata de coco dessert. I never heard such until now.
I hope next time, please tell us or give us idea how it taste like. because honestly ive been waiting for your taste test so all of us watching can somehow have an idea about it. It seems delish.
Maybe that's what lacking on this episode.
It could also be due to changing tastes. Making and decorating Western style cakes can also be difficult, but people make them because they like them. It's normal for people to stop liking certain foods. There are also many forgotten dishes and desserts from other countries, hence the existence of channels like Tasting History.
There was also Nata de Piña which is made from surplus pineapple juice. But noone makes this anymore. The Nata de Piña we ocassionally see today are actually merely Nata de Coco flavoured with pineapple.
This is amazing 😮
BTW, beautiful heirloom. Hope it continues on the next generation.
didn't know may ganito, sana makatikim ako. good job Erwan! more of these recipes.
sana meron mag ganito yung mag vlog nang mga katutubong sayaw, mga ibat bang arts at culture na unique sa ibat ibang provinces
Heirloom recipes are great finds. 😊❤
Ngayon ko lang nalaman na may ganito pa lang dessert. Nakaka-amazeee.
Once again, thank you FEATR! Please continue to make videos like this. And sana, marami pang makanuod ng mga videos from this channel ♥️
Congratulations, Ms Velasco for keeping alive this tradition!
Whoa, these are beautifully intricate confections. I would pay good money for them. I have never heard of these products. Bravo FEATR for showing us heirloom recipes. As a Filipina abroad, and raised abroad, I am growing in my appreciation for my culture. Thank you.
I love the stories you transmit on this channel, after the amazing people of the Philippines, if we’re talking food, one of the things I miss the most is the unique flavour of calamansi there’s nothing like it
Hopefully, this heirloom recipe will thrive beyond Nina's lifetime. Thank you for sharing, Nina and Featr!
These are both beautiful dishes. PRESERVE THEM.
Publish a book maam..it's a gem we should cherish it to continue ur familys legacy
Amazing, this is one unique dessert! Thank you for featuring this, now I want to order one for myself!

Galing ng video editing, music
Saw a recipe yesterday for orange peel done in a similar fashion (not carved). Supposed a delicious dessert when boiled and boiled to eliminate the bitter flavour of the pith. I can see lime would be equally delicious. They do add back in the juices at some point point.
An heirloom recipe I wish I learned from my lolo before he passed. It’s a very nostalgic snack / dessert from my childhood. Sobrang sarap nito 🧡
wooowww this is amazing content i never knew thanks guys its amazing

Wow. What a story. I saw this calamansi stuffed nata the first time on a facebook post by a friend of mine. Hope to get a taste of that special delicacy 🫶🏼
You can order directly from them! Details on the description.
Wow! It takes a lot of time and patience. Never heard of this product before. Salamat Erwan!
Meron din ako hinahanap, natikman ko sya nung bata pa ko. Kamias na ginawang prunes. Wala ako makita, wala na rin atang gumagawa ngayon.
@png 2000 - Kamias prunes still available. I've bought one from a DTI sponsored event in SM Mega featuring pinoy food products from different regions. Surprisingly, the one that I bought was manufactured from San Antonio Heights in QC.
@@user-nq9wr6qw2f Thank you for the info. 💗 I hope I can find one in Cavite.
Thanks lola.
Gusto ko gayahin 😊
This got to go viral.
Solid ganeto talaga ung hinahanap ko Yung mga authentic na Filipino food.
🇵🇭tangkilikin ang sariling atin💪
Every Region or Places here in the Philippines , in our country, must have each of their own schooling or learning about each pride, atleast in each and every region to focus on their own delicacies, own heritage of delicacies. So atleast they'll have the interest if God willing, na " ow I never thought or I didn't grow up with this kind of delicacy, but we have it, which seems to have forgotten, our pride, let's revive it, God willing. " Kahit na andito na tayo sa modern world, we should not be the same in some other countries na nakakalimutan ang tradisyon. Ito ay pamana at alaala sa atin ng mga ninuno natin. Siyang tanging magpapaalala sa ating pinagmulang bayan. 🧡
Sendin Love,
Filipino Woman 🧡
I want to try this
So kinakain pati un kalamansi? Prang amg sarap nga❤
Sariling atin ang gandang e export ito..
Masarap sguro yan 🥰🥰🥰
Nakaka amaze at nakaka tinding balahibo pag nakakapanood ako ng ganitong story na may ganito palang pagkain sa pinas. Yun deep story ng process nito. Nakakalungkot lang dahil sa tingin ko unti unti na mawawala yun ganitong family recipe or tradition dahil iba na generation ngayon parang hindi na interesado sa ganito. Siguro sa future, pinakuluang at minatamis na cellphone na ang papalit dito hehe.
These copper cooking vessels are known as "tacho". They come in several sizes. I do not know this delicacy nor have i seen or tried it. Great feauture!
where can we get this …i wanna try this unique dessert…proudly pinoy❤
