As I write this post I can smell something cooking. Looks like I will be off to Waitrose to get some Lamb for dinner tonight. Why? you may ask. Well whenever my wife cooks dried fish, I see it as an opportunity to cook Lamb. I'm really not a fan of dried fish, my wife is not any kind of a fan of roast Lamb so we use these times to indulge ourselves independently. As William Stankespeare once wrote (Romeo and Juliet I think) ...A dried fish by any other name would smell as bad! Call this dried fish whatever you want, Buwad,Tuyo,Daing or Dillis the smell is about the same, and Stankespeare is still correct after all these years. I wonder if a Beer marinade would make it smell and taste any better???
My wife, in all her wisdom, decided to bring some of the dreaded stuff back, from her most recent jaunt to Phil, last month... She has brought home a variety of bags, with different sizes of extremely deceased and severely decomposed fish carcasses... And squid.... Fair do's, she has given some away to her closest friends for which I am most grateful in their humble acceptance.. But what ever is left, seems that I will be blighted with for months to come.... Recently, as far back as six days ago, she cooked some of the stuff while I was in........... One can run, but cannot hide.....
buwad is the national food on PH i guess and sadly wheather you all accept it or not its partly in our blood stream as pinoy hahaha u wont and never can change that even the earth will rotate in diffrent ways the passion us filipinos buried to us a human being hahaha:wow: and talking about smeel its how we grow up with and that is a way we raise as part of our culture..here in the UK the only thing i couldnt attain to even taste and considering to taste is the chilli con carne:beat::shock::shock::shock:ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww

I really dread the smell of dried fish . My papa is from Romblon so he is used to eating that and everytime he cook dried fish, I go out of the house for a while not fond of eating dried fish because it gives me an allergic reaction ... bawal po sa akin ang sobrang malalansa :drama:
Dried fish is something I have yet to smell... Or taste.. But like PagPag or Balut, I think I will pass on tasting it
well in that case sorry to hear Yuna its case to case basis namn eh so you are exepmted but u still fond of eating buwad...yes
you have too Kuya OR no married lolz..every man who married filipina must try and taste buwad heheheh
I have eaten dried fish before and no doubt that it is masarap even though it smells bad ... dried fish is best eaten with either suka with garlic or chopped tomatoes
that means you are obviously a true genuinely filipina indeed Yuna can you send me some heheh specially dreid squidddddd ohhhhh
