As an introduction of wheat to the Philippines by the Portugese, Bread became a part of the Filipino cookery. Hence, variants of breads from soft to crispy was invented, and one of those is the "Monay", a dense bread w/ a smooth outter skin and a signature slit on top that colloquially used to describe the Female genital. Strange as it may seem, but the bread's name actually came from "Pan de Monja" that means "The Nun's bread". Nevertheless, monay is an ideal bread to ease your cravings for carbs in the morning before you go to work. Other kinds of bread have come up from monay such as "Putok" & "Pinagongan" that differentiates from how they where slit on top. #monay #bread #breadporn #pagkaingatin #phfood #kantofoods #panaderia #tinapay #foodpics #foodph #meriendafood #almusal
