00:00Before we taste it, of course, we have to partner up with Chef Elite.
00:04Oh, yes.
00:05You have to have someone to partner up with.
00:07You also have someone to throw in the kitchen.
00:08I saw that. Is it there?
00:09Here it is, our mystery ingredient.
00:12Kapitbahay, our challenge to Chef Elite,
00:15the dish that he's going to partner up with in our Tinorang Manak
00:19is to use our mystery ingredient.
00:22So our mystery ingredient is...
00:26Buko!
00:29Are you thinking of something, Chef?
00:31I'm thinking of something.
00:32Christmas should suit you.
00:34Yes, it should suit you.
00:35And it suits Tinorang.
00:36Chef, what are you going to do with our Buko?
00:40So, we're going to celebrate Christmas.
00:43What are you going to create for Christmas?
00:45Cake.
00:46Cake?
00:47I'm going to sell it.
00:47You're going to sell it?
00:48No, but this is my favorite.
00:50What's the name of my son?
00:51Butabong Boki.
00:52Butabong Boki!
00:54It's his favorite.
00:55I saw purple, so I'm sure it's Butabong.
00:58So for us to make Butabong,
01:00this is what we need.
01:02Butter or margarine.
01:05Ube flavoring.
01:06It can be ube powder.
01:08Glutinous rice flour or sticky rice.
01:10Muscovado, sugar.
01:12Coconut milk.
01:13Condensed milk.
01:15Cheese.
01:16And of course, the star ingredient of Mikey.
01:18Buko.
01:19Buko!
01:20Wait, Chef.
01:21Isn't Butabong like that?
01:22The one that spins?
01:23You know, I bought it like that.
01:25We're fast with the mystery ingredients.
01:27Okay, so you can do this
01:29if you don't have that kind of
01:31Butabong Boki maker.
01:33Let's start so we can all eat.
01:35How?
01:36Glutinous rice flour.
01:37At home, we just mix all the ingredients in a mixing bowl.
01:41We're going to add warm water.
01:43Why not cold?
01:45It's not cold because it will harden when you mix it.
01:48If it's too hot, it will be sticky.
01:51What kind of texture do you want?
01:53You just need to form it into a dough.
01:56Make it round.
01:57Like clay?
01:58Yes.
02:00What do you do at home?
02:02When you're mad?
02:03Just warm?
02:04Or very hot?
02:05No, very hot.
02:06Very hot.
02:07Extreme.
02:08We're going to add ube flavor
02:10because Butabong Makapit Bahay is purple.
02:17Add water little by little.
02:20So you can tell if it's forming into crumbles.
02:23But the smell is different, right?
02:25It's purple.
02:26It's purple.
02:27So we're going to add Mr. Ingredient by Mikey, which is coconut.
02:30Oh, it's mixed.
02:31Yes, we're going to mix it.
02:33It has texture.
02:34Yes.
02:35Pastries are popular these days, right?
02:38It's like coconut.
02:39It has a filling.
02:40Yes, it has a filling.
02:41I'm curious.
02:43You were diagnosed with bipolar in 2022.
02:47But did you already feel it?
02:49Or did you already have signs before?
02:51Signs?
02:52Actually, until 2022, I didn't feel like I was like that.
02:58It's like normal.
02:59My doctor noticed my manic.
03:03When I'm manic, like when I buy a lot, when I spend a lot,
03:07when I don't think much.
03:09That's when you'll know.
03:11Yes.
03:12And the high energy, too much.
03:16Suddenly.
03:17And then I decided to take medication when I was depressed.
03:23So it's like extreme highs, extreme lows.
03:26Yes.
03:27So Mikey already knows.
03:28When I was in extreme low, I have never experienced that in my life.
03:32In your life?
03:33Ever.
03:34It was already 2023, January.
03:36I said, Doc, this is it.
03:37I'm going to take medicine.
03:38Actually, what convinced me to take medicine was Jenny.
03:43You can't do it.
03:45This is a ball.
03:46Let's make a ball first.
03:48Let's make a ball first.
03:49Wait.
03:50Because this, the kneading is really 3 to 5 minutes.
03:54Okay.
03:55For the starch to develop.
03:57Like that.
03:58The color is beautiful.
03:59At home, just like that.
04:00Just long.
04:01Then you roll a banana leaf.
04:04If you don't have a banana leaf, it's better.
04:06You can also use foil.
04:08Yes, of course.
04:09So we'll just roll that.
04:10Then we'll put it in the steamer later.
04:13So the other version is grilled.
04:15Let's open it.
04:17Because this is the usual butubongbong that we see outside the church.
04:20The texture, yes.
04:21That's what they put there while you're saying it's really cooked.
04:25Butubongbong.
04:26I don't want to eat it.
04:27Really?
04:28Why are we cooking this?
04:30This is my favorite, butubongbong.
04:32No, I don't like to eat this.
04:34I'll eat it here, of course.
04:35So this is it.
04:36This is the grilled one.
04:37So cute, right?
04:39So this is what we'll do.
04:41What others do is they put margarine here on the banana leaf.
04:45So it won't stick.
04:46Yes.
04:47So we'll put butter or margarine here on the banana leaf.
04:51So this is our grilled butubongbong.
04:55It looks like cheese.
04:56So this is it, Kapitbahay.
04:58We'll steam it.
04:59Look at it.
05:00It's like the realistic butubongbong.
05:02Let's steam it.
05:03It's hot, chef.
05:04It's okay.
05:05It's okay.
05:08How long should we wait?
05:09About 1-2 minutes, Mike.
05:11It's fast.
05:16Let's check it, Mikey.
05:17Are you ready?
05:181, 2, 3.
05:23Butubongbong.
05:25The color looks good.
05:26Let's get it.
05:28I'm sure you've done this many times.
05:31It looks good.
05:32It doesn't stick.
05:33Right?
05:35Yes.
05:42So this is it, Kapitbahay.
05:44Our butubongbong is done.
