HOW TO COOK PAKSIW NA BANGUS

Paksiw na Bangus is very easy to cook. It is as simple as ABC. But one thing should never be forgotten when cooking it, the vinegar. The most popular fish that is used in Paksiw is the Bangus because of its milky taste and the price is less than other fish.

HOW TO COOK TINOLANG MANOK (CHICKEN TINOLA)

HOW TO COOK TINOLANG MANOK (CHICKEN TINOLA)

Let us talk about how to cook Tinolang Manok in Filipino style. This is one of my favorite Filipino dishes. I love the soup and the juicy chicken meat. I was wondering why my mom’s tinola was different from my grandma’s and I found out that in my mother’s hometown, they use papaya in their tinola but in my grandma’s hometown, they use sayote. Well, we are not going to have a debate here. It is up to you which one you would prefer. In cooking this dish, many vegetables can be added like chili leaves or malunggay leaves. Just don't be afraid to experiment. And if you are looking for the best chicken for your Tinola, the Philippines native chicken would be the best because it is way tastier than the ones sold in the meat shop. Another advice is make sure your blood pressure is normal before eating this dish because it can cause you high blood pressure. Here is how to cook Tinolang Manok (Chicken Tinola):
