Posted at 09:58h, 08 MarchHave you heard of “Pandan ” essence ? You can find it at Asian stores, especially Filipino stores. Filipinos love Pandan essence.

Posted at 10:34h, 08 MarchThe taste is very subtle, actually. I can’t describe it. I think Filipinos put a pandan leaf in the rice. The aroma smells nice while the rice is cooking.
