Gestroopt ei in dashi - met grondSichuan peperbollen!

gestroopt ei in dashi met Sichuan peperbollenDe gestroopte eieren zijn gekookt in sudderend (kokend niet) water. Shells zijn gebarsten en de eieren worden toegestaan om in het water te koken tot het wit maar de nog runny dooier vast is. Ik stroopte nooit eieren in water. Ik gebruikte om hen in sudderende vleesbouillon te koken. Maar omdat ik nu op een met laag vetgehalte dieet ben, ontdek ik andere manieren te stropen een ei.

Probeer stropend uw ei in dashi. Dan, bestrooi het met zout en maalde Sichuan vers peperbollen.

Tinola van de kip en leversaus

tinolang manokTinolang manok of de kippensoep met groene papaja en Spaanse peperbladeren was een reusachtige favoriet met mijn familie toen mijn broer en ik groeide. Mijn vader onderwees me hoe te om een speciale onderdompelende saus te maken om de tinolaervaring tevredenstellend te maken - een mengsel van fijngestampte kippenlever met patis (vissensaus). Ik onderwees mijn eigen jonge geitjes om te eten tinola met chayote eerder dan groene papaja, en ik had nooit de kans om hen aan groene papaja en de fijngestampte lever te introduceren en patis onderdompelende saus tot een paar nachten geleden.

Lumpiang ubod (hart van de broodjes van de palmlente)

lumpiang ubod (hart van de broodjes van de palmlente)De laatste tijd die ik lumpiang ubod heb gemaakt, mijn eerstgeboren (nu 15) was nog een baby en wij leefden bij mijn schoonouders'. Ik had teveel verontschuldigingen voor het maken van lumpiang ubod al deze jaren niet - ik had geen non-stick pan om die omfloersen-als omslagen te maken, ging het zulk een ruzie naar de markt zo vroeg in de ochtend voor de besnoeiingen van de ubodkeus, het te hete weer…

The heart and soul of Filipino food

Alex Veneracion making polvoronMy editor asked, ?What characterizes great Filipino food? The long hours of simmering? The recipes that have been handed down through generations? The bold flavor of Ilocos garlic and sibuyas Tagalog? Or is it simply the time a family spends in sitting down for a meal and then continues to share stories long after the food is gone??

I was transported to a night when my father labored over home-made siopao per my request when it would have been the easiest thing to drive to Binondo to buy a dozen…

Chicken soup for a rainy day

chicken soup with milk and parmesan cheeseHam bones, especially those from Chinese ham, are wonderful for making soup. You just drop the bones in water, add onions and garlic and let everything simmer for an hour. The flavors from the bone will transfer to the water and you get a broth that is simply bursting with flavor.

But who has ham bones at this time of the year? Well, see, Majestic Ham sells bones by the kilo…

Lasang Pinoy 14 (A la Espanyola): My father’s sarciado

beef stewed in tomatoesAbout my father’s sarciado… of course, I had enjoyed this dish countless of times when I was growing up. But the day my husband ate my father’s sarciado, it became his standard for sarciado. I had just given birth to our firstborn, Sam, and on a visit, my father cooked his sarciado and a clam soup with malunggay. My husband couldn’t stop talking about the sarciado for days.

Halaan (clams) and malunggay soup

clams (halaan) and malunggay soupThe more common way of preparing this simple soup is to add sili leaves to the clams after the heat has been turned off. The pot is covered for a few minutes to allow the sili leaves to wilt before serving. But after I gave birth to my first child, my father would make this soup using malunggay leaves. Whether there is a scientific basis for it or it is simply another old wives’ tale, I am not sure, but my father said malunggay helped with the production of breast milk. He wanted the best for his granddaughter. :)
