Blogger and cookbook author Abi Balingit of The Dusky Kitchen is known for her flavorful, fun desserts, inspired by her American upbringing and Filipino heritage. She channels all of this in her debut cookbook, Mayumu: Filipino American Desserts Remixed, which came out earlier this year. Abi joins host Jessie Sheehan to talk about her horchata bibingka recipe from the book, including how she came up with her unique twist on the traditional savory Filipino dessert. The duo also chat about Abi’s career path, landing her book deal through social media, and the pasalubong treat boxes that she started baking in 2020.
