Binignit is a traditional Filipino dessert soup that has been enjoyed for generations. This sweet and creamy dessert soup is made with a combination of root vegetables, fruits, and tapioca pearls, all cooked together in coconut milk and sweetened with sugar. Some of the common ingredients used in Binignit include sweet potatoes, taro, jackfruit, saba bananas, and yams.

The preparation of Binignit is relatively simple. The ingredients are first cooked until they are tender, and then coconut milk and sugar are added to the pot. The mixture is then allowed to simmer until the coconut milk has thickened and the flavors have melded together. The soup can be served warm or chilled, depending on personal preference.

Binignit is a popular dessert soup in the Philippines and is often served during special occasions and religious holidays, especially Holy Week. Holy Week is celebrated either in the month of April or May. This year, 2023, we celebrated it  from April 6^th to April 8^th.

It is a comforting and satisfying dessert that is perfect for any occasion. If you're looking for a unique and delicious dessert to try, Binignit is definitely worth a taste.
