Chinese Braised Ribs
My photographic skills do not do these ribs justice but my husband declared them the best Chinese braised ribs, even better than any he’s ever had in a restaurant! Now that’s some endorsement and he lived up to it by eating almost half the pot by himself I liked it because, well, it was delicious if I do say so myself! But I liked it the most because of how easy it is to … Read entire article »
Kalyn’s Pork with Paprika & Mushrooms
It’s been over a month since I revamped this blog yet I hadn’t posted anything new. I have no excuse, unfortunately other than I just hadn’t felt like it! I have still been cooking and visiting blogs for inspiration. Just haven’t been posting them. So here’s one recipe that I picked up from one of my favorite blogs, Kalyn’s Kitchen. We eat a hella lot of pork at our house and it’s nice to come up with … Read entire article »
LaPiS ~ SQUARE
This has become a regular on our menu ever since we finally figured out how to get that crunchy and sinfully good skin and the fork tender meat. My entry for this week’s Lasang Pinoy Sunday (LaPiS) is a bit late because the weekend got a little hectic, and well, I’m also pre-occupied with reading a novel and couldn’t put it down all weekend. The theme for LaPiS this week is SQUARE. As I was looking through my food photos and saw this pork roast with the square pieces of crunch on top and decided that it’s time to re-post the recipe. Here is what we make when we have hankering for some lechon. … Read entire article »
Recipes to Rival: Tamales!
These tamales were delicious! I love tamales, but I don’t usually order them when we go to restaurants. Why? because restaurant tamales usually suck. They are dry and taste like cardboard. The best tamales I’ve had were homemade ones; the kind someone’s mom or grandma made. And growing up in California, I didn’t have a shortage of friends with tamale making moms and grandmas. I always knew what I was going to get for a gift on the holidays So if the only tamales you’ve tasted is from a restaurant and you’ve sworn to not like them, I suggest making these and maybe you’ll change your mind. This month’s challenge for Recipes to Rival is Tamales! and it is being hosted by The Healthy Vegan Kitchen. Since the ‘meateatarians’ … Read entire article »
Pata Tim
I cooked this dish a while back but hadn’t posted it because I wasn’t happy with the washed out photo and I was hoping to cook it again and take a better photo. But, of course that hasn’t happened and I am in a cleaning up mood. I plan on cleaning out my drafts folder this month, so here goes. I got hungry just thinking about this dish so I had to take a break and go eat dinner first Anyway, this dish was adapted from Oggi’s Pata Tim which she cooked up for Lasang Pinoy’s January event which featured dishes cooked in a crockpot or slow cooker. When I made this version, I didn’t have time to cook it in a slow cooker but rather went to the … Read entire article »
Homemade Pork Tocino
(Updated 1/3/2010) We love this homemade tocino recipe and so have many of our blogging friends who have tried it. There are many different versions of making Filipino tocino out there, but very few of them use cider vinegar like this one. Most of the ones I have seen online and even in most cook books only have salt and sugar as the main ingredient. I kind of like having the vinegar on mine. It’s not … Read entire article »
IMBB 11 – Sinigang na Pata
With the cold weather, it seems that a lot of food blogs (Baby Rambutan made Pho, Sassy made chicken soup, for example) have been cooking lots of soups. I actually was looking for ox tails like what chef Celia had, but couldn’t find any. I did find fresh ham hocks, so I decided to make sour soup.
