MR> Got your recipes and most of them look great (though I think I may MR> on the Pork Livers in Pigs Blood, I’m trying to cut down, but I am MR> that it is there), a great blend of exotic and easy to prepare. Th MR> for sharing them with me. Most people pass on the pigs blood. Try it sometime though. If your palate is onto the more exotic forms of cuisine, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised. MR> I have already formatted your recipes into Meal-Master format, but MR> before I post them onto the Cooking Echo, I would like to impose o MR> a little bit more for some clarification about ingredients and som MR> background on Filipino cuisine. I also intend to post the entire MR> collection as a file on your board and the Salata board. After I d MR> that, it should take on a life of its own and propagate itself MR> throughout cyber space. Great. I’ll try to clarify as much as I can. MR> What is bagoong, and how is it prepared? Bagoong is a salty mixture made from shrimp.

You can see how this combinatio naturally fulfills the heart and cholesterol meal plans. 2. One of my favorite side dishes to go along with a Filipino meal is actually the simplest of fare. The ingredients are: Tomatoes 2-3 Medium, sliced or diced Onion 1/2 Medium, chopped Cilantro a little for flavor and color Patis 3-4 Tablespoons Vinegar 2-3 Tablespoons Mix the whole mess in a bowl and serve alongside rice and the main dis 3. It’s not unusual for a typical Filipino meal to have several main dishes served together at one sitting. That’s much the same as a Chin table where a variety of courses help to spread the palate around. MR> In Pasiw Na Isda you recommend in dir. #1 …add all other MR> ingredients , should it be …add all other ingredients except bi MR> melon and eggplant . You are correct. (continued in part 2)
