Recreate the Mary Grace salad at home with breaded kesong puti nuggets, lightly blistered tomatoes, and calamansi vinaigrette.
Titas rejoice: This recipe replicates the kesong puti-calamansi salad from Mary Grace, from the golden nuggets of cheese to the bright, zippy vinaigrette. Romaine lettuce lends a fresh, sturdy crunch. You can use the leaves whole, or chop it up into bite-sized pieces—just make sure to do it right before serving, or else the leaves will brown.
Kesong puti literally means "white cheese". This Filipino cottage cheese is made from the milk of carabao, goat, or cow, and is often packaged in banana leaves. It's soft and squishy, and tastes mildly salty and sour. Because it is unaged, kesong puti has little to no odor.
