Vegan Pancit Sotanghon

RG @ Astig Vegan — Fri, 22 Apr 2022 10:55:34 +0000

Sotangwho? Pancit Sotanghon is a type of pancit that uses vermicelli noodles (instead of the popular bihon or thin cornstarch noodles.) Bihon usually breaks easily while vermicelli still holds, yet it’s not as tough as the luglug or thick cornstarch noodles or the canton or chow mein noodles. Pancit Sotanghon is similar to the Korean...

Vegan Dinuguan, Updated and improved recipe (with video)

RG @ Astig Vegan — Fri, 27 Sep 2019 02:25:05 +0000

Dinuguan is a blood stew that may seem unappetizing but reveals to be surprisingly tasty and flavorful. It was one of the dishes that I missed when I became vegan. Back then, I would get slightly offended when someone would say they don’t like Dinuguan because it’s gross. Of course, now that I’m vegan and...

Vegan in the Philippines, my first month here 2019

RG @ Astig Vegan — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 07:20:00 +0000

The first month of being vegan in the Philippines has been a whirlwind. It started with a family reunion on my father’s side. Almost everyone from abroad flew to Cavite to party. My aunts and uncles reunited once again after so long. Some of my cousins from the US hadn’t been back in more twenty...

Learning all about Yuba and Tofu, an Evening with Hodo Foods

RG @ Astig Vegan — Thu, 20 Dec 2018 06:25:07 +0000

I’m not the one to go to a party alone without knowing anyone but the host. Unlike my husband who can always work a room, I get very conscious and worse, awkward. When I was a kid, I can comfortably sit in one corner for hours without uttering a word. A timeout would be a...

Our Vegan Wedding

RG @ Astig Vegan — Mon, 01 Oct 2018 04:08:24 +0000

Back in July, I married my true love at an all-vegan wedding in San Francisco. It came out better than we had hoped for, much to my relief. Everyone raved about the food, enjoyed the live music, even cried tears of joy. When Chris and I got engaged we talked about having an all-vegan wedding....

Vegan Filipino Macaroni Salad

RG @ Astig Vegan — Sun, 11 Jun 2017 17:19:34 +0000

Compared to the Italian, Mediterranean, and other versions, Filipino Macaroni Salad is the sweeter and heartier counterpart. If it’s up to me, I would eat a whole bowl as entree and dessert (and I have). There’s something irresistible in the creamy elbow macaroni, sweet and tender pineapple, and savory touch of garlic powder, salt, and pepper. But...

Vegan Filipino Chicharon, Two Ways

RG @ Astig Vegan — Sun, 23 Apr 2017 06:14:42 +0000

Vegan Filipino Chicharon is a fun little snack that has dried shiitake mushrooms coated in rice flour and sweet rice flour then deep-fried. Another way to make it is by deep-frying dried yuba skin. You could serve vegan Filipino Chicharon as a snack, appetizer, or party food. For best results, I suggest serving them with spicy vinegar...

Because everyone is feeling the holiday spirit (I know I am!), I’m featuring something classic and quintessential where I came from. Back in the Philippines, the holiday season won’t be the same without Putobumbong, a sweet rice cake coated in grated coconut, slathered with butter, and served with muscovado and brown sugar. Putobumbong in the...
