Food Blog December 10,2023 Ginataang Puso ng Saging Ginataang Puso ng Saging is a Filipino dish wherein banana blossoms are cooked in coconut milk (or coconut cream). Protein and seafood such as ground pork and shrimp can be added depending on your preference. The word “Ginataan” is a Filipino term that means to cook in coconut milk or coconut cream. “Puso ng Saging”, on the otherhand, literally means Banana blossoms. This dish is quick and easy to cook, as long as the banana blossoms have been prepped beforehand. Start by peeling the outer bud of the blossom and discard. Slice the banana blossom into thin pieces. Soak it in white vinegar (you can also add salt) for at least 15 minutes before rinsing. Make sure to wring as tight as you can to let the sap out. Note: soaking longer will give you better results.Prepare coconut milk by mixing Knorr Ginataang Gulay mix and water until the powder dilutes completely. Set aside. This will be used later in the middle of the process...
