Batchoy Tagalog
It's summertime but it doesn't feel like it,here in our tribe lol.
It rained like crazy these past few days so I indulged with my very own batchoy tagalog to keep me warm.
This is actually one of my husband's favorite hungover remedy, I must say one of his favorite pulutan. He always request this when he and my uncles have their inuman session.
It really takes a lot of time preparing this dish as it uses pork,liver,innards and intestines. I have to cut and clean the intestines well to removed its foul smell and bitter taste. It takes time and effort but as you see your loved ones saying how good it is, it's quite fulfilling and satisfying.
Batchoy Tagalog is closer in taste with tinola due to its use of ginger and same way of sauteeing it. This dish is really interesting as you also add miswa noodles and pork blood.
So this is how I make my own batchoy tagalog at home, give it a try, it is definitely a delicious way to take the chill off cold rainy days and absolutely soothes hungover!
