HOW TO COOK SINANGLAW (RECIPE)

HOW TO COOK SINANGLAW (RECIPE) -this is a native dish in Ilocos region in the Philippines. It is made of beef innards and sometimes with cow's face and ears. This dish is similar to pinapaitan because they both have innards and bile extract in the ingredients. Sinanglaw is commonly cooked as hot and spicy soup that is why this dish is one of the best sellers during rainy reason and also during the months of November to February because those months are the coldest season in the Philippines. Not all the markets sell innards so if you are having a hard time searching for it in your town, do not worry because you can replace the innards with just your favorite meat. And also if you can not find bile extract, you can use bitter gourd. Sinanglaw is also cooked as sour soup and the good news here is that you can use almost any sour ingredients like, kamias, tamarind fruit or tamarind leaves, vinegar, etc. If you are a traveler and happen to visit the norther part of the country, Sinanglaw is very abundant that you can have it in any local eateries. If you do not eat blood like myself, I would like to advise you to ask the waiters if the sinanglaw they serve has blood in it. It is better to ask because sometimes it is hard to distinguish the blood from liver. Here is the recipe:



HOW TO COOK SINANGLAW (RECIPE)

INGREDIENTS
1/2 kilo cow innards (chopped into small cubes)
2 tablespoon bile extract (or 1 cup chopped bitter gourd)
1 thumb-size ginger (thinly sliced)
5 cloves garlic (minced)
1 medium size onion (thinly sliced)
5 pieces kamias, sliced (or 3/4 cup white vinegar)
cooking oil
5 pieces green chili (siling panigang)
salt to taste

STEP BY STEP COOKING PROCEDURE AND DIRECTIONS
1. In a pot, boil water. Add the innards. Simmer for half an hour or longer depending on how tender the meat is. Remove the scum when boiling.
2. Separate the innards from broth and set aside.
3. In a skillet, heat oil. Saute ginger, onion and garlic.
4. Add the innards and bile extract and saute for another 2 minutes.
5. Add the broth (or 6 cups of water if you don't want to use the broth) and simmer for half an hour then add the vinegar, salt and green chili. Continue simmering for another 10 minutes.
6. When simmering, the fats and cholesterol will emerge. Scoop them because those are not healthy to eat.

HOW TO COOK ESTOFADO (RECIPE)

HOW TO COOK ESTOFADO (RECIPE) -Stofado is a Filipino dish made of pork that has many variations. The most common is the sweet and chewy one. The meat is cooked with soy sauce and sugar but not necessarily cooked the way the adobo is. In the Philippines, this dish is commonly served as appetizer but can be the main course served with rice. Some versions use plantain banana for the ingredients to add sweetness to the dish. Estofado originated in Spain but since the Philippines was a colony of Spain for 300 years, this dish has evolved into many variations that it has even become traditional because this dish is always present whenever there are occasions in the country like weddings, baptismal, birthdays and family reunions. To me, this dish is like a combination of Patatim, Pochero and adobo and I could taste the three dishes when I am eating Estofado. I would not recommend this dish to anyone who has high blood pressure though because this dish is too fatty for them, we do not want anyone to end up in the hospital after eating it.

HOW TO MAKE HAMONADO (RECIPE)

HOW TO MAKE HAMONADO (RECIPE) -Hamonado is a traditional dish in the Philippines that is always cooked during christmas and new year. This food is made of pork or roasted pig which is processed to be more like Ham. Hamonado is the best alternative for ham when you feel like you do not want ham. One of the few differences between ham and hamonado is that ham is a bit more salty than this dish. And also hamonado is added with ingredients for it to be become a little sweet and sour like pineapple and calamansi extract. Basically, this dish is marinated in a mixture of pineapple juice and calamansi but what we are going to do using my recipe is we are going to use lemon extract instead of the traditional calamansi extract because lemon is more abundant globally than calamansi. But I think any citrus fruit will do as long as it possesses the taste we need for this dish. Making Hamonado is very simple and easier than you think but it will require more time and a bit of patience because this dish requires curing. This time we also need to fry the pork to keep the taste of marinade in the pork. There are many ways to make Hamonado like baking it together with the sweet and sour ingredients but I find that curing, frying and simmering it is the best. To me, this food is way better than ham, maybe it is because I like sweet and sour food like this one or maybe it is just easier for me to make Hamonda than making ham. You can adjust the amount of the ingredients in my recipe to suit your taste or you can replace some of it with your preferred ones but if you are going to experiment first, I would like to advise you to just experiment using small amount of the whole ingredients because you would not be so sure if you would like the outcome of you experiment. Here is the recipe for Hamonado:

HOW TO MAKE BURONG MANGGA

HOW TO MAKE BURONG MANGGA -this is a very popular condiment in the Philippines that is made of unripe mangoes. Mango is very abundant in the Philippines especially during summer time. Its name is derived from two Filipino terms, 'buro' which means fermented and 'mangga' which is a tagalog name for mango. Making this dish requires the process of fermentation only this time, we are not going to make beer but a condiment which is good to combine with fried fish. Burong Mangga is very similar to pickled stuff and to me, I would prefer to call it pickled mango. In the main Island of Luzon in the Philippines, this condiment is very abundant that you can even find it in the grocery stores and supermarket sold in jars and bottles. Making this condiment is very easy but will require longer period of time for pickling process. Not all kinds of mango are used for burong mangga but the one called 'kinalabaw' and the Philippine native mango which is a smaller kind of Kinalabaw. Take note that we need only the unripe ones and it is a lot better if we use the younger mango which the fiber coating of seed is not yet developed. This recipe I am going to share with you is very easy that it only requires 3 ingredients -mango, salt and water. But of course we will need jars with lid for storage because we do not want our Burong Mangga to catch some unwanted microorganisms that can ruin our Buro. Here is the recipe:

It is really like fire chicken because from the very first bite, you'll feel the very hot and spicy character of this dish. The industry for this dish is rapidly growing because this dish is not old as Kimchi but has earned its very good reputation. Many restaurants and food carts are serving this dish because they find this Buldak thing as a considerable contributor to their growing sales. Soup and stews are served with this dish to suit the taste of the customers. Many restaurants offer many kinds of combo dishes to choose from which the Buldak is the main dish. Almost any part of chicken are used in making this dish. The most common part used is breast and drumstick. Wing is also abundantly used depending on how much per serving the Buldak is offered. Also, many variations of sauce are offered in the market, from super hot and spicy to sweet and sour that kids always love. To me, Buldak is similar to chicken barbecue only this dish is always served with the touch of hot chili from many degrees of hotness. In Korea this days, you can barely find bars that do not offer this dish. Here is the recipe:

There are few things to remember when making Soju: First, when brewing, make sure the content is undisturbed to guarantee its higher alcohol content. Secondly, you can adjust the amount of sugar if you want to make it a bit sweeter than usual. Thirdly, you can add water to the finished product if you want to lower its alcohol content. Lastly, check for gas build-up in the container, if this happens, lightly open the lid to release the pressure. Here is the procedure:

HOW TO COOK GALBITANG (KALBITANG RECIPE)

HOW TO COOK GALBITANG (KALBITANG RECIPE) -Galbitang or Kalbitang is a Korean soup with many variations which are made from beef short ribs. Onions and Daikons are the primary ingredients for this dish. Its name derived from Korean terms 'galbi' which means short ribs and 'tang' means stew. The technique in cooking this dish is slow cooking for a longer period of time that gives the dish a tasty soup and also makes the beef tender. In Korea, Galbitang is commonly served as main course, also served with rice and some grilled fish. Someone told me that Galbitang used to be a very fancy dish in 17th century that only the member of royal families could afford and eat. In Korea, this food is also served in many family occasions such as baptismal, wedding, birthdays and even family reunions. This dish is also commonly cooked with some noodles and vegetables like radish. I have seen many versions of this dish like from clear soup to ones with soy sauce in it. Galbitang is also one of the perfect foods to be eaten during winter and rainy season because the hot soup gives our body warmth. If you are a hot and spicy dish lover, then i suggest that you add some spicy ingredients to your Galbitang but you don't want it to be like that if there is little kid you expect to eat your Galbitang. As always, you can improve my recipe according to your taste and preference. Here is the recipe:

HOW TO MAKE YEMA (RECIPE)

HOW TO MAKE YEMA (RECIPE) -Yema is a very delicious sweet custard candy which is very popular in the Philippines. This is one of the favorite 'pasalubong' of the Filipinos. Pasalubong is a Filipino term for going back home present. This gooey candy is made from egg yolks primarily combined with condensed milk and some butter. Making yema is not that difficult unlike what others think or say. I have tried many versions of this dessert and I discovered that you can make many versions of it. You can add vanilla sauce, maple syrup, apple sauce and many kinds of flavorings. I tried adding chocolate but I ended up adding coffee because my goal was to make my Yema more brownish, the outcome with chocolate was good though. If you are in the Philippines and you are going to ride a bus, many street vendors ride along and going to offer you packs of Yema candies. This candy is commonly wrapped with cellophane plastic but many makers use wax paper to keep the yema from sticking to its wrapper. We are not going to need sugar for this recipe because condensed milk is already sweet unless you want your yema to be more sweet than it is supposed to be. The price of this dessert is not expensive at all. A pack with 20 small pieces I think only cost 10 pesos or at least 20 pesos tops. Some of the preparations are different that you can even notice it from the texture. Some are as hard as the commercial candies and some are like very chewy. If you are having a family reunion, Yema would be perfect for desserts and also for going away present for your relatives. If you are a mother of small kids, this one is a good treat because kids love Yema, but I would like to remind you that tell your kids to brush their teeth after eating it because the sugar it contains will break the sugar into acid that can destroy their teeth if not brushed. Here is my easy Yema recipe:




  HOW TO MAKE YEMA (RECIPE)

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Yield: 20 small pieces


INGREDIENTS
1 regular size can of condensed milk
3 eggs (yolk is what we need, set aside the whites for other purposes)
