BONGSOS & BEANS + TENGBA

Your classic highlander pork and beans with a twist. I used aged Bongsos (pork intestine) and a newly discovered bit of magic...Tengba!

Tengba is a traditional, nutrient-rich, fermented rice and small river crab paste originating from Besao, Mountain Province in the Philippines. Often described as Igorot miso, it is made by fermenting ground rice, salted crabs, and water for weeks to months. It is commonly used as a savory, creamy flavoring for vegetables or stew, traditionally served to new mothers. Often referred to as Igorot miso.

Its a game changer, depth of flavor and a natural preservative. Contact ETAG GUY to try this.

OVERLOAD?

After harvesting fresh and freeeeee sayote and talbos, the plan was tinola....but I was craving mongo...so here we go. Added the gulay to the mongo and fried up some tofu, silet (pork small intestine) and a marinated chicken quarter....needed the power up after a good work out.

DIM SUM?

I followed a Cantonese recipe for this chicken feet dish (excellent sauce) but I was hoping to get the bones sooooo soft you can kill the entire foot. 5 mins in the power Afghan pressure cooker and I should prob get the bone melt I was looking for next time.

I needed collagen for my ligaments, don't judge!

FIRST BLOOD

This is Baboy Ramo (wild boar/pig) crossed with a native black big. Super flavorful but the meat can be tough. This new pressure cooker got it done in 15 mins, as tender as braised beef.

Simple adobo for the 1st test

AFGHAN KAZAN

An Afghanistan style pressure cooker made from very thick cast aluminum, making it very lightweight while being able to cut cooking times in half. Can't wait to use this new kitchen tool!

What should I make first?

GRATIN?

Loosely based the beloved gratin. I blanched zucchini, carrots, french beans, potatoes, broccoli and cauliflower and the last of my arugula. Stirred in a mix of cream, fried chicken coating mix (thought I had bread crumbs but I didn't), garlic, salt n pepper. Baked in an air fryer at 160 for 10 mins, then 180 for the final 5 while topped with 2 kinds of cheese.

No rice for today, but this is more than filling alongside a slice of fish.

Your way, your rules. Try it without the cream, maybe a butter/egg/breadcrumbs mixture. Use what vegetables are available to you. Experiment and have fun, but don't skip that cheese!
