HOW TO COOK PANCIT HABHAB


How To Cook Pansit Habhab – Here is another sort of Filipino Pansit that I really like to cook for ner year’s eve. It’s awful because this last new year’s eve I wasn’t able to cook this one because I was too loaded with work, I couldn’t even enjoy the evening.



This dish is also called Pansit Lucban, I don’t know, perhaps this dish originated in a small town in Laguna called Lucban that’s why it was named after that town. Enough for the trivia, this blog is not national geographic channel. Before I share the recipe, guys, I just want to say that if you feel like you don’t want one of the vegetables in the recipe, you can replace with some vegetable you know that is used in cooking any sort of Pancit.
