prawdopodobnie nasz polski korespondent będzie miał trudności ze znalezieniem kapusty i kabanosów kiedy nie szuka ukrytego skarbu
I spend more time then it`s worth defending British nosh from Yanks and European naysayers.. These twots slag our food down no end for some reason. I even had a snail eating French geezer sneering at UK food just the other day.. I told him to stop talking so much with a mouth full of frog legs..Rude! I do not have the time or the patients to defend Filipino food or any other food available here any more! The Philippines or it`s grub is not for everyone,that`s for sure! Me?? F@kin love it!!
On the few occasions that I have visited the country, I found the food excellent, seafood in particular, pity that they cannot cook a steak to save their lives, but the taste was good. it is the num-nums that I cannot get to grips with............ chicken feet... balut...
If you are ever in Bohol,I will introduce you to my Italian mates.. One of them owns,runs and cook`s in a restaurant in Tagbilaran..Top nosh!! Bellisima ,Buon appetito! https://www.tripadvisor.com.ph/Rest...City_Bohol_Island_Bohol_Province_Visayas.html
Can you get Coriander leaf where you are? I've never seen it anywhere and I know they would label it Cilantro. I'd also like to find somewhere to get Cumin and Coriander seed and the ground versions as well, everything else is fairly easy to get including Turmeric although asafoetida would probably be hard to get too.
I grow Coriander here like weeds..Cumin and Coriander seed all available in our mall.. We buy fresh Turmeric from the market by the Kilo..Not washed with bits of mud on etc.
Za późno na miłe słowa. Przegapiłeś swoją szansę. Złoto, które zgromadziłem, już dawno zastąpiło kapustę i Cabanos świeżym dzikim łososiem i kawiorem.
Can't get it in SM Sucat, Coriander leaf I mean, useful to know that the seeds are available although again never been able to find them in SM and I've been looking a long time.
Believe it or not,even in that concrete jungle,you can grow Coriander and many other herbs, even if it`s in pots because you have no land. Half the fun of living here is producing the stuff that should, in reality be impossible to produce! (according to internet forums)
No idea what it was but it was grown on mamas veranda. She gave us scissors and asked me and the kids to cut that off. She’s got around 50 pots with all sorts growing in them.
Tastiest food I’ve eaten in Pinas was Lantaw in Lapu*2. https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Resta...ationId=101&albumid=101&filter=7&ff=351508626
Yes granny knows how to grow lots of things around the front and side of our place and has been doing so for over a decade.
Well there you go. Send Granny some Coriander seeds. After a month of being back you will never want to see that particular herb in another omelette ever again!
First place I ever lived in P.I back in the day.. The sub division was called Fil-Am.. Is it still there?
I use it in curry, if I could harvest seeds I can grind to the spice, seeds, ground seeds and leaf all impart different flavours, cumin and coriander are great as part of the Tarka stage of preparing a genuine Indian curry right at the start. The leaf as a garnish but can also be cooked into the dish, whole seeds tempered in oil nice for Chicken dishes, and the ground version is an essential component of any masala, I would never get sick of it, unless it was in an omelette Not sure that the seeds you get from an Indian grocer here would ever germinate in the Phils or anywhere, I would have to test that here and I don't have any ground to try that on.
Yea I’d agree with that. I could’ve used that to scrub my back, after ripening and peeling. You learn summat new everyday. I’m not very good at recognising plant life.
We had a HOT Indian curry night at my house once.. My English mate supplied the Popudums bought in Aussie and I made the Green chile pickles and Mango chutney and the Beef Vindaloo.. The Vindaloo was a knock your socks off number because of the peppers I grow here in my garden. In actual fact,they are the worlds hottest chili pepper.."Carolina reaper".
