Postreng Saging/ Banana Soup

I don’t think many Filipinos cook Postre anymore. This is one of those dishes that has been passed down from our grandmother’s grandmother and has been forgotten through the years because of new dishes that has been added to the family menu. Guava is also used to make postre when they are in season.

You might think the ingredients are weird but this tastes surprisingly delicious. peanutbutter♥ was –and still is– weirded out when I first let him try it but most friends who tasted it liked it. Since this is an old recipe, I don’t think you would ever find a recipe on the web but I’m absolutely sure that you will find this dish if you search really old Filipino cookbooks.

At first glance, you might think that this is the usual sweetened banana. Think again and look closely at the recipe. Postreng Saging is a sweet-savory soup that is eaten like a regular soup in a meal.

I hope you try this out…

Have a great weekend everyone!

    I have tried this recipe today while I was literally hungry. The taste was not worst, but awful for a snack. I started hating garlic and banana from now.

    And I request everyone to avoid this great ancestral dish (Postre)\

    Actually I rate this recipe no stars. But I rate.

    Thank you very much for your great help.

      Oh I’m so sorry you didn’t like it. I guess this is an acquired taste and not everyone can appreciate. Thank you so much for your comment. I do appreciate it very much.

          I missed my grandmother because of this recipe. She used to have it inside her cabinet all the time when we we’re growing up. I didn’t know this is what it’s called. I just described it to my aunts and told me it’s postre and googled it which brought me here. This recipe is quite the same as my grandma used to cook. Btw i’m also a kapampangan. Food brings back memories! Thanks!

    My grandna taught me this recipe. Up until now I cook it and was even the one who retaught my grandmother since she is aging gracefully and her memory often fails her. And yes my grandma is a full kapampangan and she cooks postre as our snack or dessert. When I got married, I cook postre whenever my tastebuds miss it, but my husband does not enjoy it as much as I do, hoping my kids would like it when they grow up. I will continue to cook it and pass the recipe to my kids ❤️

Kaya share ko sa inyo tong bago Kong #momfindsph - BETTER LIFE household cleaners (@betterlifeph ).They’re biodegradable, has plant-based ingredients, and sulfates-free. 

Pinakagusto ko yung All Purpose Cleaner kasi spray and wipe lang and it cleans easily. Ginagamit ko to to clean my stove top, air fryer, ref, microwave, dining table, at coffee table.

Kung may special occasions naman, kung ano ang ihahanda. Kaya naman I'm always on the look-out for new, easy, and delicious recipes to try. So glad I found this Creamy Pork Mechado and cooked it for the family. It's rich, creamy, and flavorful kasi ginamitan ko sya ng Nestle All Purpose Cream. Napa-extra rice sila lahat!

As a LACTUMama, I'm always on the lookout for acti As a LACTUMama, I'm always on the lookout for activities that will help support Twinkle's Immunity, Brain and Bones. Good thing this All Around Development Kit from @Lactum3 arrived over the week, kaya naman ito ang aming bonding activity this weekend!

Ang saya ni Twinkle because it has all the fun exercises and activities she really enjoys doing. We planted Arugula, Mustard, and Alfalfa seeds, painted the post, solved a puzzle, and played Twister. Afterwards, I made sure to give her a glass of cold Vitaminized Lactum 3+ which helps support her all-around development in Immunity, Brain and Bones with proper nutrition and stimulation.
