While researching on Thai cuisine in Bangkok, executive chef Cheryl Pineda observed that the locals liked to mix their viands and chicken with mangosteen.

We see them in the market being peddled by street vendors, especially where tourists congregate: clusters of peanuts in large discs held by raw brown sugar. Known as panocha, this delicacy is our rustic version of peanut brittle.
