Our kind of Good Friday
*Cebuanos traditionally prepare binignit especially during Good Friday is because it doesn't have any meat in it. As Catholics, Cebuanos practice fasting and abstinence and shun meat especially on all Fridays of the Lenten season.
•Good Friday is a Christian holiday commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary. It is a crucial day of the year. Ever since Jesus died and was raised, Christians have proclaimed the cross and resurrection of Jesus to be the decisive turning point for all creation.
*We all do have differences on celebrating the Christian holidays like going to provinces, to churches, or to the Holy places together with our family and relatives. As of now, as we gathered for the Holy Week, we Cebuanos somehow had a tradition on offering or celebrating the said holidays by serving a BINIGNIT. It's actually customary in our province to prepare and serve binignit during Holy Week, especially on Good Friday which is yesterday! Binignit is a regional variation of ginataang halo-halo. But while the latter adds bilo-bilo to its list of ingredients, binignit uses milled glutinous rice. In this rich mixture, different tubers such as gabi, kamote and purple yam along with sago pearls, jackfruit strips and saba bananas are stewed in sweetened coconut milk. Binignit is either served hot or cold and often enjoyed as dessert or midday snack. We usually enjoy eating binignit together with our family, friends, neighbors, relatives, etc. This is part of the Cebuanos tradition. Not just the Cebuanos but also on other Filipinos.
Ingredients:
•Pilit ½ kilo (30 pesos)

•Vanilla 1 putos (5 pesos)
•Saging 1 kilo(50 kilo)
•Kamote 1 kilo (50 kilo)

That's all for now! I will surely positively ensure to you that if you tasted Binignit, you'll love it. Just try it at your home and have time to eat together with your family, friends and relatives. You'll enjoy it!
Furthermore, let us pray heartedly and have faith in Him. Let us thanked Jesus for He saved us from our sins. On this Good Friday, may we never forget the true meaning of easter. May His love grace our hearts and may His sacrifice strengthen our soul.
