hello!, someone has mentioned that kamias has not been given enough attention in cookbooks/recipes, and that’s very true. We will soon correct that, though. We had just formed an NGO called Practical Research Institute & Enterprise Development (PRIED), and we have identified kamias as second-in-line in our list of priorities in micro food production–towards future food security and poverty alleviation. Second only to breadfruit (kolo/rimas) and breadnut (camansi). And we will be writing/publishing a recipe book containing old (and oftentimes abandoned & forgotten)and new recipes for these fruits, as well as other fruits such as tiesa, mabolo,paho, erc. We are into discovering and promoting all sorts of marginalized /underutilized tropical fruits. Within two years’ time, if you all could wait for it…

Edith, i think the white powder u are asking is “apog” ingredients for “nga-nga” like preservatives… soak for whole night and wash it b4 u put in sugar caramel…taste like prunes…Try it…

I don’t know if it was candied kamias I had when I was young(er)—everytime I’d visit a granny in Sta. Catalina Ilocos Sur years ago, my pabaon was always kamias prunes/pruned camias. I was too young to be interested in the process and she had long since passed away….

I just would like to ask your help to produce or give the recipe/procedure in making kamias candies?

Thanks,

Joel

I love Kamias! That is what I missed when I went here in the U.S. I was so glad when I’ve learned that my relatives in Hawaii got a Kamias tree in their backyard. That is the firsst fruit I craved. I just ate it with salt. I love the crunchiness ang the sour tingle to your pallete.
