Glossary L
I thought I have to make this as I come from the Philippines and still consider it as my home even thought I reside now in Europe for 10 long years. I've made a lot of photos about the Philippines food and related sceneries and will be adding them as much as I can: I am hoping that a visitor of my food glossary will make one understand what is Filipino and the Cuisine of the Philippines.
Liebesapfel refers to one of the sweet treats (Süßigkeit) available in Germany during festival seasons, particularly available for sale during Carnivals, very popular in Christmas Night markets (Weihnachtsmarkt) and other occasions open to the general public, like in Bremen's Ischa Freimarkt, an almost 990 year old festival every autumn.
Lipoten also known as Liputen is one of the exotic fruits found in the Philippines.
Lipoten fruits are eaten as is when fully ripe, but with a bit of sour and tart taste Lipoten fruits with a deep purple Color when ripe are also made into wine by the residence who have still access to the Lipoten tree, like those living in one of the provinces of the Philippines which is Laguna, particularly in Liliw, Laguna where I personally saw the fruits being sold on the streets and had a privelege of tasting this exotic fruit which is very new to me.
I am so glad, I did this tour in Liliw, Laguna with my Long lost friend whom I havent seen for almost 30 years and enjoyed with her this exotic fruit which we both tasted for the first time. My friend also enjoyed the wine from the fruit while I enjoyed the fruit as is drizzled with a bit of salt.
Below are Pictures of Lipoten fruits sold in the province of Liliw, Laguna in the Philippines
Lángos also spelled Langos refers to a Hungarian traditional bread.
Please see article entitled Langos for more information. Below is a picture of salty/savory Langos which was one of the food sold during the 2015 Bremen Freimarkt, an annual Festival held in the City of Bremen, Germany.
This is a salty/savory Lángos which is topped by garlic butter then grated cheese. It maybe so fatty, but so delicious just the same.
