Followers of Flavours of Iloilo on Facebook shared this interesting delicacy from this north central town of Iloilo. Called linidgid na mais, this native treat from Lambunao is a mixture of corn, coconuts and sugar. Made using the pilit variety of corn "shredded" the old fashioned (tin cans with nail-punched holes) then combined with young coconuts and sugar to taste. The mixture is then wrapped in banana leaves then tied at the top like a pouch and steamed for around two hours. The effort made in making this delicacy s greatly rewarded with a delicious native treat.
