Q & A

What is the purpose of draining excess oil from the Turon?

Draining excess oil helps prevent the Turon from becoming too tough or tensile, ensuring it remains crispy and enjoyable.

Why is the amount of brown sugar mentioned in the recipe only for 60 to 70 pieces of Turon?

The amount of brown sugar used in the sauce is specifically for 60 to 70 pieces of Turon, which is the standard batch size for this recipe. If fewer pieces are made, the sauce can be reduced accordingly.

Yes, you can substitute some ingredients. For example, you can use jackfruit in place of pineapple juice, and if you prefer, you can add cinnamon powder for a spiced flavor. The original recipe also includes Taktak made from skimmed milk and powdered sugar.

What is the role of the Rhum in the sauce?

Rhum adds a unique flavor to the Banana Rhum-A. The alcohol evaporates as the sauce cooks, leaving behind a subtle rum taste that enhances the overall flavor.

How does the cooking process affect the alcohol in the Rhum?

As the sauce cooks over low heat, the alcohol content in the Rhum evaporates, so you won’t get drunk from the recipe. The flavor of the Rhum remains, but without the alcohol content.

Why is cinnamon powder excluded in the recipe?

Cinnamon powder is omitted because the person cooking the recipe notes that their children do not like cinnamon. However, it is an optional ingredient in the original Banana Rhum-A recipe.

What are the key ingredients for making the sauce?

The key ingredients for the sauce include butter or margarine, brown sugar, pineapple juice, Rhum (specifically Tanduay Rhum), banana essence, and optional cinnamon powder.

How long should the sauce cook before it is ready?

The sauce should be cooked over low heat until it becomes gooey, which indicates that it has thickened properly and is ready for coating the Turon.

What are toasted sesame seeds used for in this recipe?

Toasted sesame seeds are added to the Turon after it is coated in the sauce. They add flavor and texture, giving the dish a crunchy and nutty finish.
