Linguine with tuna-mushroom-corn cream sauce

Today, I decided to recreate a recipe I experimented on before. It's a carbonara inspired recipe with a twist and not to mention another Century Tuna recipe. Nothing really special in my ingredients nor in the way I cooked this pasta dish. I used linguine (my first choice was fettucine but it wasn't available in grocery).

First, I stir fried sliced button mushrooms in butter then added tuna. Then I added cream and liquid milk then added seasoning powder and garlic. Finally, I mixed cream of corn (soup) powder. The result was a slight sweet creamy white sauce with corn "essence".

Next time though, I'll add more cream to make it more welll, creamy. And I'll use vienna sausage instead of tuna.

Ultimate Ilonggo Favorite: KBL Kadyos, Baboy, Langka

K.B.L. or Kadyos, Baboy, Langka is the ultimate favorite dish of most Ilonggos. It is also one of the most missed native dishes as kadyos and the souring ingredient, batwan , are hard to find when outside of the Ilonggo region. Basically, it is boiled/stewed pork dish owing its "deliciousness" to the combination of the soft and tender pork, the tamed sourness of batwan and the malinamnam na sabaw . One of the "secrets" of the malinamnamn na sabaw , is the fact that the pork, whether just the plain meat or pata (hocks) are first grilled or broiled. This gives the broth a rather smoky taste that makes it more appetizing.. Learn how to make the Ilonggo dish KBL (Kadyos, Baboy, at Langka) with the recipe below.

An Ilonggo favorite - Suman Latik

Suman Latik is one of my favorite native delicacies - plain suman/ibos topped with sweetened coconut strips or bukayo . Most of the time those sold in the markets have this two (suman and bukayo) already in one wrap and all you have to to is devour it. But most of the time, the bukayo portion is bitin that I wish there's more. So why not make our own suman latik so you can have all the suman we want with all the bukayo toppings we desire!
