Baguio Country Club Cheese Bread

My sister went to Baguio, Ifugao, etc. last week. She brought home a bunch of goodies including this: It’s supposed to be a cheese bread but it’s filled with walnuts and dried fruit. It’s like a fruit cake inside. I didn’t like this. I like sweet and savory but this was just terrible. I like dried fruits as my grandma makes a mean fruitcake and she uses the same ingredients. I just didn’t appreciate this. It really tasted weird for me. The filling just does not go with the bread.

Sauteed Tuna and Sayote (Chayote)

This post is for all my man friends out there who rely on this blog to feed them (haha!) or give them ideas on what to eat aside from the regular junk food that they buy dyan sa tabi tabi. Or at the very least, give them a nudge to eat decent food. We were supposed to have this for baon but my kuya invited us for lunch so we had this for dinner instead. Filipinos are very creative when it comes to cooking food that will feed every member of the family. Even some well-off families serve simple gisa or sauteed dishes. Men are also taught this very simple way of cooking. Ginisa dishes often include a vegetable and some meat. But some go without the meat especially if the budget is low. Ginisa is very popular with the middle class, down because they normally have soup which is a good extender and helps you get full without eating too much.

Steamed Lapu Lapu - Thai Style

This is one of my very few attempts at cooking fish that isn't fried. I thought the recipe was simple enough that screwing up was not an option. = ) Mix Thai patis, calamansi juice, grated ginger, mirin, sweet chili sauce and black pepper in a bowl. Put cleaned Lapu Lapu in foil. Make sure that the foil is big enough to cover the whole fish and not let the sauce leek out. Pour the sauce over the fish. I turned the fish over so that every inch will be covered with sauce. I even poured some in the cavity. Steam for 12-15 minutes or until the meat is flaky. Top with tomatoes and cilantro. I don't like cilantro thus only the tomatoes are visible. I served this with the classic tomatoes and green mango salad with bagoong. It was a light but satisfying Sunday night dinner. Will I do this again? Definitely!
