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...

My thoughts on Kain Vegan, Kaibigan 2018

RG @ Astig Vegan — Wed, 13 Jun 2018 15:35:30 +0000

Sometimes when I cook for myself, I tend to go simple with what I’m going to make. After all, I’m only cooking for myself. A simple fried tofu or sauteed mushrooms with side of rice and soy dipping will do just fine. But when I cook for other people, I become more inspired to cook...

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...

Achuete Oil and Other Food Gifts for the Party Host

RG @ Astig Vegan — Tue, 22 Nov 2016 07:45:36 +0000

Is it just me or is 2016 flying by so fast? I couldn’t believe that the holiday season is almost here -again! While the holidays may be a bit stressful at times, I do like the spirit of gift-giving. One thing I learned is that even though the host insists you don’t cook or bring anything to the party, you should...

Superbowl 50 will be held in the bay area, my current residence! The entire bay area is buzzing and the local news has been covering the anticipation. The city of Santa Clara...

3 Last Minute Halloween Recipes, Vegan Filipino

RG @ Astig Vegan — Thu, 29 Oct 2015 23:46:32 +0000

Originally, I wasn’t going to post anything about Halloween. After all, the Filipino tradition of Halloween is a religious event where Filipinos flock to the cemeteries to pray for their deceased loved ones. No costume parties, no Halloween feasts, no trick or treating. Times have changed and I would hear about some of my nephews...

10 Vegan Filipino Soups and Stews for Fall

RG @ Astig Vegan — Sat, 12 Sep 2015 07:00:18 +0000

To me, fall season is the season for soups and stews. Since I was a kid, I’ve always loved hearty stews. Granted there was no fall season in the Philippines (only summer and winter), stews have been my choice of dish. My stews are now vegan but they are just as hearty and comforting as my childhood...
