RECIPE: Pancit Pusit by Chef Tatung

This is a classic Caviteno dish shared by Chef Tatung Sarthou during his cooking demonstration at The Maya Kitchen. This dish is also known as Pansit Choco En Su Tinta. The Pansit Pusit is rice noodles with rich squid ink sauce, topped with vegetables, crushed chicharon, squid rings, and kamias slices.


Ingredients:

3 pcs pusit or squid
2 tbsp minced garlic
1 medium onion, sliced
2 pcs chili finger, seeded, thinly sliced
2 pcs laurel leaves
1/2 cup vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 cup water
pepper to taste
400 grams sotanghon, soak in cold water
salt and pepper for seasoning
kinchay, thinly sliced
crushed chicharon
8 pcs of kamias, sliced


Prepare the squid by cleaning and removing the long plastic and the small sack of liquid ink inside. Set aside quid ink for later use. Slice the squid into rounds including the tentacles. Wash thoroughly and drain. Set aside.

Saute garlic, onion, chili finger and the laurel leaves. The fire should be set high then immediately add the squid and continue to saute for two minutes.

Put the vinegar, soy sauce, fish sauce and the squid ink. Let it boil. Add 1 cup of water. Let it boil for two minutes.

In a medium fire, add the sotanghon. Mix thoroughly until the noodles absorb the soup or stock. Add salt and pepper to taste. Then add the kinchay.

Garnish it with crushed chicharon. Toasted garlic can also be added if you want it to be more flavorful. Serves 3-4 pax

Salcedo Market x Legaspi Market Tour

We haven't visited the weekend markets for years so I was giddy with excitement because I was able to visit both Salcedo and Legaspi markets this month, thanks to our Dusit Thani Manila staycation . To differentiate the two, Salcedo market  is held every Saturday at the Jaime Velasquez Park in Salcedo Village Makati while Legaspi market is held every Sunday at the Corinthian Carpark in Legaspi Village Makati. Since we were coming from Dusit Thani Manila, it was quite a long walk but it was early in the morning (around 8AM) and even Ayala and Makati Avenues were still without cars. Wow! 

Boracay's Hidden Gem: Mama's Fish House

I've always wanted to dine at Mama's Fish House in Boracay but wasn't able to for some forgotten reasons already. Then the pandemic happened and we're in lockdown or limited travel movement for almost two years. And guess what? One of the nicest thing to happen on our recent trip to Boracay was to discover that Mama's Fish House was located just outside the beach front of our hotel- Microtel by Wyndham Boracay . Talk about serendipity!
