Dinner Tonight: Adobong Na Manok

cookieprincess is absolutely right. filipino cooking will never be revered for its aesthetic appeal. but in terms of flavor, wow.

Dinner Tonight: Adobong Na Manok

esmerelda, isn't it awesome with coconut milk? i usually add it a little later during the cooking process so that the flavor of the soy and vinegar has time to get into the chicken. i would say i put in the coconut milk somewhere between the last 15-20 minutes of cooking. then again, i cook my adobo on low so that the meat is just about ready to peel itself off the bones.

btw, everyone likes their own personal recipe best. and it's considered REALLY BAD TASTE to suggest that your mom cooks adobo better than my mom.

Sweet Ticket Giveaway, Week 3: Pichet Ong's Guilty Pleasure Sweet

leche flan cake. basically, it's cake baked with flan in a steam bath. when you remove the cake from the pan, you end up with cake on the bottom, flan on top. the caramelly goodness from the flan drips down and stains the cake. words simply cannot express.

Sweet Ticket Giveaway, Week 3: Pichet Ong's Guilty Pleasure Sweet

in no particular order:

1) toast or saltines dipped in condensed milk. mmm, mmm, salty-sweet goodness.
2) a fresh batch of gooey, homemade fudge.
3) buckeyes -- little balls of peanut butter dipped in chocolate.
4) the olive macaron from pierre hermé. not so guilty pleasure because if i can manage to get my hands on 'em on american soil, it would be a crime not to devour them.
5) mexican hot chocolate.

Tocino: The Filipino 'Bacon' at Isla Pilipina in Chicago

foie gras fat? come on! no self-respecting filipino mother would dare serve something that unhealthy to her children. . .

hope you got to enjoy the tocino with garlic fried rice, fried eggs and atsara -- that's the filipino breakfast of champions!
