EN: pith of a banana stalk
Think of it as the heart of the banana stalk. Before it becomes a meme-worthy "saging lang ang may puso" moment, the 'ubad' is the edible core. It's often used in dishes like 'kinilaw' or stews. It's the plant's hidden gem, kinda like that one quiet but super talented person in your group project.
Primarily used in culinary contexts, especially in certain regional cuisines like those in Aklan.
