Pinipig are flattened, immature grains of glutinous rice, primarily from the Philippines. These young rice kernels are traditionally toasted or roasted, resulting in a light and crispy texture with a subtle, nutty, and slightly sweet flavor. Pinipig boasts a pale green to light beige color, depending on the toasting level. Often used as a topping or ingredient in desserts and savory dishes, pinipig adds a unique textural element and a hint of delicate flavor. It is a popular ingredient for adding delightful crunch and a hint of sweetness to a variety of Filipino treats and snacks.
