Rafael, Salcedo market is in the center of Salcedo Village in Makati City. Market on Saturday mornings only. You can also sometimes find dayap at the Centris Market, in Quezon City, on Sundays only, the Centris Market is located on EDSA near Quezon Avenue I think…

Hi,

San po ung salcedo market? Taga pasig po ako, naghahanap po kami ng dayap para sa leche flan sa pasko. Sanay kasi kami na merong dayap ang leche flan at hindi kami satisfied kapag wala. Thanks po.

Dayap is not easy to find probably because the tree is difficult to grow. I have raised several dayap trees before. But while I had been lucky to harvest its fruits for more than a couple of fruiting cycles, it had been my misfortune and my deep sense of loss to see several trees wither before my very own eyes. Why the trees simply die without any perceptible rhyme or reason remains unknown. What I know, however, is that despite repeated frustrations, I still continue to plant and raise dayap, hoping that the next tree to bear fruit will be a sturdy one and will manage to outlive me. Oh, I love this tree so much that I am willing to trade one dayap for several kalamansi trees. It has a lovely smell, a kind of fragrance so distinct and inviting when used in leche flan. As its grated skin lends a fragrant smell and a lovely flavor to leche flan. To many Pampangos, a lecha flan is incomplete without dayap.

OOOOOH, DAYAP! OUR AUNT FROM THAILAND USED TO GROW THEM HERE IN MANILA. SHE GAVE US SOME (THANK YOU, TITA JIT!). NOW THERE’S JUST ONE TREE LEFT. WE USE DAYAP FOR FRIED RICE (WITH FISH SAUCE, CHILI, PALM SUGAR), SOM-TAM (THE GREEN PAPAYA SALAD), THE RIND FOR LECHE-FLAN, AND OTHER COCONUT-BASED THAI FOOD. IF YOU’RE USED TO DAYAP, KALAMANSI IT IS NOT. AND VICE VERSA.

@Dragon, I do not find these obviously paranoid proscriptions against Philippine fruits and foodstuffs annoying at all. I say let’s keep good Filipino stuff an impenetrable secret. Let them bigots perish in their benighted ignorance.
