Pastelyas actually means milk peels.

Kasi di ba, pag bumili ka ng pastelyas, nakabalot, mukha siyang malalaking peels na talaga namang hindi mo matitigilan kainin.

And some regions here in the Philippines, may kanya-kanya tayong version ng pastelyas.

Sa totoo lang, lahat po iyan masarap.

Walang mas masarap, walang hindi masarap.

Basta pastelyas, favorite na favorite natin.

That's why today, let's make a unique version of this favorite Filipino delicacy.

Let's make a baked pastelyas.

Ang kagandahan kasi, pagka-baked yung pastelyas, alam mo, mas stable siya and actually, it will have a longer shelf life.

Kasi nagiging parang cookies.

Eh well, kung ayaw mo naman ng bake, pwedeng pwede din naman itong traditional.

Huwag mo nang i-bake o makakatipid ka pa sa gas, masarap pa rin.

So first, you start with the basic ingredients.

Super duper daling gawin nito actually.

And I remember that we're elementary, TLE class.

That's where pastelyas making is taught first.

And I'm also surprised that it's just that easy to make pastelyas.

So first, I have here powdered milk.

I'm just using ordinary powdered milk from the grocery store.

And many of you have been requesting to weigh the ingredients.

So the powdered milk into my weighing scale.

So it gives you 370 grams of powdered milk.

Of course, when you're selling, it's faster to make costing when you're weighing.

Or if you want to double the recipe, you just multiply the grams.

This is why cups are really-

So here, I will explain it to you.

Because some of the viewers are just like a hobbyist.

They just bake for fun.

So mostly, there's no weighing.

That's why we're also using cups.

But for the weigh, again this is 370 grams of powdered milk.

And then into this, I'm going to put salted butter.

This is 50 grams of salted butter.

I'm already using salted because I won't put salt anymore.

But if you have unsalted butter, you just put a pinch of salt as a flavor binder.

So 50 grams of salted butter.

And then I'm just going to put cheese because you know me, I really like cheese.

So I put approximately a cup of grated cheese.

If you want the taste of pastillas to be fancy, I make this before.

You put queso de bola, right?

Especially since the birth month is near, right?

I'm already giving you an idea of what is good as a gift and as a business.

And I'm also going to put condensed milk.

This is just 1 third cup of condensed milk.

Okay.

You don't need a mixer here.

I will massage this, that's why your hands must be clean.

Make sure that you wash your hands.

And so that you won't have a hard time on kneading, I have here cornstarch.

Okay, just a bit of cornstarch.

But before you put cornstarch on your hands, you start to massage this first.

It's just easy.

If you feel like the dough is stiff, you may put a bit of condensed milk.

I will put it a bit.

Okay, I'm just massaging it.

And actually, it's forming into a paste so I will just put a bit.

I will just put 1 tbsp of condensed milk.

Okay, just put around a tbsp.

Condensed milk is also your sweetener here.

Okay.

When it already bind, you may put it there already.

And you continue to knead it here.

To achieve a chewy pastillas, you need to massage this.

There it is, right?

It's like you're really gonna rest here.

It's like you're exercising.

It's just okay.

This one is also for you.

It's like you're on a diet but you can still earn.

Or if you won't sell it, the food would still be delicious.

That's the important thing.

So for you, you're really working hard for the wrong people.

Right?

You're working hard for the things that will make you happy.

It's just like that.

When it's already binding, you may put a bit of cornstarch on your hand.

It's still kneading, okay?

You still need to massage it because it has to be chewy.

That's one of the secrets.

To a good pastillas.

I'm really good at this.

Not too much, okay?

Don't put too much cornstarch.

Just enough.

It's like you're just putting powder on your face.

Don't put it too much.

It's like it's already espasol, it's just enough.

Okay.

When it's already smooth like that, it means that you're already close.

Okay.

So for example, you don't want to bake it simply because you don't have an oven.

This one right here, it's already pastillas.

You can turn it into pastillas balls like this.

You just roll it in sugar and then you wrap it.

Or if you want the classic pastillas.

So there, it's like peels.

You roll it in sugar.

Mmm...

Oh!

You already have pastillas.

You want Ube Pastillas?

You can put Ube Jam, Ube Flavoring.

Let's taste it.

Oh! It's so chewy.

I love it.

Mmm...

Right?

You already have pastillas but we want it more fancy.

So we will bake it.

So first, you form it into a rectangle.

I'm just using a flat scraper.

Okay.

Form it into a rectangle like this.

Approximately.

If you're gonna use a ruler, this is just approximate.

You don't need to copy my measurements.

Around 7 x 5.

Okay.

Then we will just cut it into bars.

When you already have a bar, you cut it into cubes.

I will remove this because there's a gap.

You roll it in sugar but before I do that, I'm going to preheat my oven.

400 degrees Fahrenheit.

So I have here a pan that I've lined with parchment paper.

I will roll it one by one on the sugar.

And then I will just line it on the pan.

It's going to be so good.

You just line it like that.

Believe me, this is an upgraded version.

This is famous before, Toasted Pastillas.

But what they do there is they blow torch the sides.

This one, we are going to bake this for around 10 minutes.

It's cooking the pastillas all throughout.

So until that inside, it will be extra chewy.

So there, you just roll it like that.

And then you line it, giving it some space.

To make sure that even if it's a bit loose, your pastillas won't stick.

Okay, so there.

We have already assemble it.

So there.

Now, I'm going to bake this in a hot oven.

Around 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Your idea is that you want the outside to crust.

It should turn a bit brown and then that's it.

Let's go back.

So there it is.

So after around 9 to 12 minutes.

This is around 10 minutes, our Baked Pastillas is already cooked.

Oh!

You just want it like that, it's like golden brown.

So there, right?

It's like...

Oh! It's still soft.

Actually, it will be firm when it's cold and hot.

So let's let it cool for a bit.

Let's say 5 to 10 minutes before we taste it because I don't want to get burnt.

So there, it's already cold.

Right?

Let's try.

I love it.

It's like chewy, it's outside is crunchy.

Oh my gosh!

It's delicious.

To be honest, it's addictive.

It's like you're gonna eat it like corned beef.

Mmm...

One more.

And you know what I like about this?

It's not overly sweet.

It's like cookies actually, you get that crunch.

The chewiness, just so good.

It's like you're eating a snack with pastillas.

Everything good.

It's so delicious.

Mmm...

That's the only thing that sticks on teeth because it's too chewy

but this is the one that sticks that you like.

You don't want to remove it.

So it's so delicious.

So what are you waiting for?

Make yours already.

But by the way, to store it, you can put this in plastic bottles

or even you just put it on ziplock containers.

You sell it and it will last for a long time.

It will last for 2-4 weeks and as mentioned earlier,

you can put any flavoring of your choice.

I'm going to see you all soon.
