I believe ketchup was introduced to the Philippines during one of the wars, when the Americans left there were no tomatoes so they made it from bananas.

We use shrimp paste in both ripe and green mangoes especially when we make ensalada, a mango salad with red onion and tomatoes

Those mangoes are from Mexico, with thicker skin and has an after taste. Mangoes grown in the Philippines have thinner skin and no after taste at all.

No bagoong (fermented shrimp) is for the mango na hilaw (unripe) only to complement the sourness

it's popularly said to have originated in World War II, when American soldiers brought tomato ketchup to the Philippines. Since tomatoes were hard to find at the time but bananas were plentiful, Filipino locals adapted it to a banana version.

We grew up in San Diego then retired to Missouri. Yes, it's way cheaper, but there's no Seafood City. I miss that store so much!! Especially the hot bakery, and the hot deli which are absolutely outstanding!

The banana flour is actually the flower that is on the banana tree. The green or raw jackfruit is the one where u can cook it and it is like a meat substitiute. The ripe sweet one you eat it like a fruit just the yellow parts so good!

I agree, Minced garlic in water has a chemical taste. I switched to minced garlic in olive oil. Badia and Walmart's Great Value brand sells it.

Hope you guys will also try making Turon. It’s sliced ripe bananas wrapped in lumpia wrapper with brown sugar and then deep fried. Great for snacks and dessert. 😊

@triciacabalquinto2773 6 күн бұрын

Hi Benji, just want to say that the picture of the red banana is not the banana blossom. If i'm not mistaken it's what we cal "puso ng saging" or "banana heart". :)

@banshee1133 4 күн бұрын

Sweet plantains is considered an everyday snack and very common. Can be cooked into a variety of different things. Not just turon. There is maruya (tagalog name not to be confused with the bisaya maruya), bananacue, ginangang (grilled), fritters (pinaypay because it is shaped like a fan), and boiled.

Taro is added as vegetable for sinigang...to make it soupy and creamy; we do plant melon or cantaloupe, jicama or singkamas both endemic in the Philippines both can be both eaten with Bagoong or shrimp paste just like ripe mangoes...while banana blossoms is added to other dishes that calls for it. Purefoods is the brand we use for Sopas and Pinoy Spaghetti...

You get zero Manners/No Inconsideration for others when shopping at ANY "International Markets" LOL People want to have a damn "Conversations" while the lines are long, or you got the ones running back to get something they forgot! Or like the one Benji mentioned "Breaking a $100" while cashiers is ringing you up. LOL 🤦🏾‍♀️😂😂 Like dude can we pay attention to one thing? 😒😂😂 Or you got the cashiers on the phone talking with someone while ringing you're shite up. 😂😂 It's so Interesting when you're at these Markets! 😂😂 But i Love it! 😁😂❤

Some of the jarred fruits you’re showing are also used for pinoy fruit salad, so not all of those are for halo halo, don’t forget the beans! It’s condensed milk for halo halo. Also the ube ice cream and leche flan topping, so yummy to eat rn during this heat wave!
