Vegan Peach Mango Pie Recipe (updated version)

Sun, 29 Sep 2024 01:57:17 +0000

I may be biased, but I think the Philippines has the best yellow mangoes; they’re butter-soft, very sweet, and not as fibrous as their other mango counterparts. Apparently, I’m not the only one who thinks this because I learned that the yellow “carabao” mangoes of the Philippines are recognized as the sweetest in the Guinness...

Vegan Creamy Baked “Fish” using Omni Classic Fillet

Sat, 28 Jan 2023 02:18:30 +0000

When it comes to westernized foods, Filipinos here in the Philippines love them with lots of creams. For example, we love creamy carbonara, lasagna, spaghetti, and baked salmon. So, when Prime Pacific, the leading distributor of Omni fillets in the country, asked me to develop a recipe for them, I knew it had to be with...

Vegan Banana Bread, Tablea Kasuy Flavor

Sun, 01 May 2022 02:52:08 +0000

When you’re in a country that has the best bananas in the world, and you just got an oven, it only makes sense to bake banana bread. In fact, that was the first order of business when Chris and I finally got an air fryer oven. We finally gave in and bought one after a...

Vegan Pancit Sotanghon

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 Mechado Stew Recipe (Filipino Meat-and-Potato Stew)

Sun, 12 May 2019 10:52:45 +0000

Meat stews in Filipino food come in many forms. My favorite is Mechado. It’s a meat-and-potato stew with an incredibly creamy sauce and savory ingredients. Just like most Filipino food especially when it’s saucy, Mechado goes well with a side of rice. I have written a recipe for vegan Mechado before, but over time I...

If you grew up in the US, yellow corn might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of sweet desserts. But if you grew up in Asia including the Philippines, you’ve probably had yellow corn in your icy drinks, sweet pudding, ice cream, and pastries. If you come to think...

Vegan Filipino Macaroni Salad

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...

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...
