Vegan Banana Bread, Tablea Kasuy Flavor

RG @ Astig Vegan — 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...

Last-Minute Valentines Day Gift: Vegan Rocky Road Bites

RG @ Astig Vegan — Sun, 12 Feb 2017 01:49:03 +0000

For me, inspiration comes from everywhere. Sometimes, I get inspiration from non-vegan things, like a Valentines Day recipe from the Martha Stewart Living Magazine. Funny thing is, I wasn’t a big fan of Martha Stewart until I became vegan. And you know that Martha Stewart is far from being vegan. But I guess it’s her love...

Putobumbong – Newly Improved Recipe

RG @ Astig Vegan — Thu, 22 Dec 2016 23:59:04 +0000

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...

Vegan Bibingka Espesyal Recipe + Giveaway

RG @ Astig Vegan — Fri, 02 Dec 2016 06:53:35 +0000

In case you couldn’t tell from the video I’m about to show you, I was what millenials call, “fangirling”. Yesterday, I was able to talk and cook vegan Filipino food with my idol, vegan pioneer, Miyoko Schinner at Miyoko’s Kitchen. For me, it was like baking with the vegan Julia Childs – live! Together, we baked a special...

Minatamis na Saging (Sweetened Saba Bananas)

RG @ Astig Vegan — Sun, 24 Jul 2016 07:10:09 +0000

You can find banana trees almost everywhere in the Philippines. Most often than not, you’ll see them on the streets, backyards, commercial spaces, and of course at banana farms and plantations. Banana trees in the Philippines are what lemon trees are in California. I guess that’s why the Philippines is one of the leading global exporters of...

3-Ingredient Mango Coconut Popsicles

RG @ Astig Vegan — Sun, 03 Jul 2016 18:25:54 +0000

“It’s super creamy like ice cream, I like it!”, my nephew beamed with excitement after taking a bite of the vegan mango coconut popsicles that I made for him and his brother. Lately, I’ve been spending more time with my nephews. I see them more now because they’re on a summer break from school. And because they...

Kalamansi Marmalade

RG @ Astig Vegan — Sun, 20 Mar 2016 16:39:12 +0000

Kalamansi Marmalade has a special place in my heart -and in my kitchen. Growing up in the Philippines, I never had access to lemons and limes. If there’s a Filipino equivalent, that’s kalamansi. Most Filipinos use it to make fresh kalamansi juice,which is perfect on a hot, scorching day. Filipinos also use kalamansi to flavor condiments and marinades or...

Champorado Recipe

RG @ Astig Vegan — Wed, 01 Jul 2015 07:52:59 +0000

Champorado is a chocolate lover’s dream. It’s rich, decadent, sweet, and a mild nutty. Nutty? That’s because the rice brings out a certain nuttiness to the porridge. Not to mention it makes it rich and creamy. I would say that it’s comforting for a cold season like fall or winter, but it could also be served cold so...

Suman Moron for Valentines Day

RG @ Astig Vegan — Thu, 12 Feb 2015 20:18:20 +0000

The name itself is a conversation starter. After all, it sounds like you’re referring to “moron” as in “idiot” in the English language. Perhaps you could make it a clever way to break the ice on a date and have a good chuckle. Or to spite Valentines Day when it is not your preferred holiday. After all,...

HOLIDAY RECIPE: VEGAN CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES

RG @ Astig Vegan — Tue, 09 Dec 2014 08:29:22 +0000

When I think of the holidays, I dream of indulgent sweets like cookies and truffles. Maybe it’s the cold weather or the holiday spirit that puts me in the mood for them. What I’m not in the mood for is leaving the house to brave the cold, which is why I rather make my own truffles instead of...
