Balut, penoy
It’s a cold day. Raining since morning what with a typhoon lashing the eastern part of Luzon. I hardly got any cooking done with the work still going on in the new kitchen. Meanwhile, the old kitchen has been totally demolished. The old cooking range is somewhere between the living room area and where the [...]

Soy gin pork
A very simple, yet very tasty, pork dish I learned from my yaya when I was still in grade school–a slab of liempo (pork belly) cooked in a mixture of gin and soy sauce. Gin? Yes, gin. Don’t worry. The alcohol will evaporate during cooking and leave only the mellow flavors which, combined with the [...]

Morcon is rolled beef flanks stuffed with vegetables, slices of cheese and strips of chorizo de bilbao. It is a popular dish served in parties because of [...]

Rice, chicken and vegetables dish
This dish is actually a cross between a soup and lugaw (congee). Uncooked rice is added while the chicken cooks. The amount of rice, though, is much less than what is required to make lugaw.
Tomorrow is market day I only had two small chickens left in the freezer, each weighing less than a kilo. Since [...]

More packages
While dinner is cooking, here’s something else I want to share.
One of my husband’s sisters works at Marigold Foundation, maker of Mama Sita sauces and mixes. She “showed” my blog to her bosses. The response was to send me samples of their products. I thanked them through her with the understanding that I do not [...]
