Misto Platters: A delicious gastronomic celebration at SEDA Atria

Introducing the MISTO PLATTERS - a combination of prime meats, freshest seafood and choiced vegetables perfect for sharing with the whole family!

SEDA Atria is celebrating its 4th Year Anniversary with this gastronomic offering that would certainly satisfy the discriminating taste of the Ilonggos.

Together with the Iloilo Bloggers Inc., I had the chance to savor all these platters in just one sitting! Burp!

Carnivores would surely loved the MISTO MEAT PLATTER. The humongous serving consists of Baked Pork Ribs, Fried Chicken with Southern-Style Sauce, Lechon Kawali with Pork Liver Sauce, Beef Kebab and Grilled Vegetables.

I personally loved the Lechon Kawali in all its cholesterolifficness because even without dipping it, its already delicious on its own.

But everything on the platter was delectable with the special mention of the beef kebab and ribs!

Connoisseurs of the bounty of the sea will really dig in the MISTO SEAFOOD PLATTER. It's a mouth-watering big plate of Grilled Tanigue with Teriyaki Sauce, Salmon with Béarnaise Sauce, Stir-Fried Sweet Chili Shrimp, Fish Fillet with Aioli Sauce plus Grilled Vegetables.

Always, salmon is on top of my seafood list whenever its available and it didn't disappoint. I could even finish the whole salmon by myself!

Equally good is the Tanigue smothered in Teriyaki sauce - it was really a big rice bait in every bite!

And if you love both worlds, then the SURF & TURF is your best choice. It's Hawaiian Pork Ribs, Roasted Chicken with Southern-Style Sauce, Adobo Spiced Salmon, Grilled Shrimps with Garlic Butter Sauce and Grilled Vegetables

I thought it was just a mix of the other two dishes but it was a new recipe with the ribs given the Hawaiian twist (pineapples!) and my fave salmon seasoned like adobo.

Each of these platters comes with a side dish of choice - Steamed Rice, Potato Wedges or Mashed Potatoes, to complement the grilled, roasted, fried, baked and more specialties.

An Ilonggo favorite - Valenciana

Found in almost all occasions like fiesta, birthdays, reunions and others, Ilonggos really love valenciana because most if not all have grown accustomed of having it in special gatherings at home. A complete " go, grow and glow " dish because it has the carbohydrates, protein and vitamins and minerals in just one spoonful, Valenciana is really an " occasional dish ". Here's the recipe for Valenciana

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. Ingredients 1 kilo Pata (pork hocks) or pork cubes, GRILLED and sliced into bite size pieces 1 unripe Jack fruit, cubed 2 cups pigeon pea (kadyos) 6-8 pieces batwan fruit (or tamarind powder) 1 piece por...

Easy Century Tuna Recipes

If you're looking for simple, easy and delicious Century Tuna recipes online, congratulations, you've found it right here! How about spicy tuna sisig or tuna sinigang ? Maybe stir fried tuna with pickles or just yang chow fried rice . I love Century Tuna from its flakes in oil variety, the spicier the better, but when I discovered the versatility of its solid variant, it became an obsession. At first I was just into the usual tested recipes; pasta and sandwich filling, but then it got simpler – I just eat it straight from the can! Usually with a piece of bread or an apple. I just add a few drops of vinegar to spice it up a bit. Then came the experiments. Yup I got tired of that habit that one day, I decided to test my skills in the kitchen. Serendipity, you might call it yet most of them turned into good recipes that I have shared now and then. Satisfying my Palabok cravings had me experiment on this recipe on the spot. With Century Tuna in lieu of the us...

Bitso-bitso

What is bitso-bitso ? Also spelled/called bichu-bichu or bitsu-bitsu , this native delicacy is made with fried rice flour dough then coated with coconut cream and muscovado sugar syrup. Its like a combination of making palitaw and banacue . The rice flour based "dough" is usually twisted and deep fried. Then it is placed/cooked in a mix of muscovado sugar then dried out. The sugar then "re-crystallize" making a crisp coating for the fried rice flour. The result is a local delicacy that crisp and sweet in the outside yet chewy inside. Cooking bitso-bitso is done many different ways and with different mixes of ingredients. These particular ones in Santa Barbara, Iloilo are still crisp even after being exposed - they are peddled every afternoon around town for 5 pesos a piece. I particularly like the fact that the sugar coating crumbles in every bite, though messy at times, but its alway a treat to have these bitso-bitso . ...

Budyawi

Bujawi (budjawi, budyawi) is what Ilonggos refer to the fruit of the buri or century palm tree . Abundant in many parts of the province of Iloilo, the buri has many many uses from the leaves to its trunk. It produces a fermented drink (tuba), alcohol, vinegar, syrup, and sugar. The trunk yields large quantities of starch. The bud (ubod) is used for salad or as a vegetable. The kernels of the young fruits are edible and are made into a sweetmeats. The mature seeds are used for beads? (rosaries) and buttons. The petiole yields so-called buntal fiber of which, the famous Baliuag and Lucban hats are made, or which, when crudely extracted, is sometimes twisted into rope. Mature leaf is used for covering tobacco bales, rarely as a thatch for houses, while the ribs are used for making brooms. From the unopened leaf is obtained a very fine fiber, corresponding to raffia fiber, which is utilized in making cloth, fancy articles, and as string. Fibers ...
