Tinapayan at Iloilo Supermart celebrates World Bread Day 2019



In celebration of World Bread Day 2019 on October 16, Tinapayan at Iloilo Supermart brings a week-long bread fair at The Atrium.


The celebration of bread at the mall's lobby features games booths, selfie corner and lots of delicous bread from Tinapayan bakeshop.



Evelyn Que, Managing Director of Tinapayan, led the ribbon-cutting ceremony  last Oct. 11.


Also present were the members of the Philippine Society of Baking headed by its president Royce Gerik Chua.


"This will be the first time that Tinapayan will be celebrating World Bread Day with activities and events at The Atrium" says Que.










She shares that for the past few years Tinapayan, together with Philippine Foremost Milling Corporation, celebrate World Bread Day with a bread-giving program in various schools around Iloilo.



And for 2019, more than 6,000 students from eight elementary schools in Iloilo became recipients of this bread-giving program.





" This annual activity (of bread-giving) will still continue complementing the bread fair at The Atrium" Que says. "And starting this year, our loyal customers will become part of this annual activity every October"


She says customers can purchase selected breads that come with special discounts that can enable them to give back and help as certain amount goes to the "Tinapayan bread-giving activity" fund.


Making this celebration of bread possible are Filipino Chinese Bakery Association Incorporated, Philippine Society of Baking, Nescafe, Unicomm Ingredients, Philippine Foremost Milling Corporation, Magest, Ferna and Asco Marketing Corporation. 


World Bread Day is annually observed every October 16 to commemorate the founding anniversary of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations in 1945.


With its mission to defeat hunger, FAO adapted the phrase "fiat panis" as its motto meaning "Let there be bread".


And Tinapayan shares this vision and support this thrust - one bread at a time!

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 pork broth cube (

Takway

The gabi (taro) is just one of those plants which is edible from "roots to tops". The most popular of which is the tuber part which is used in a variety of dishes and mostly in combination with coconut milk. Its leaves, of course, is the main ingredient of a Bicol specialty, laing . It is dried then chopped and sauteed with other ingredients including, again, coconut milk. Then there is takway . The local term for its tendrils/runner, that part which is torn between being a stem or a root for it neither grows upwards nor downwards - it grows sideways . Scraped off of its outer skin, takway is often a key ingredient in vegetable dishes like laswa and the gabi tuber with coconut milk and local snails know as bago-ngon . It is also popular when cooked adobo style with guinamos , the local bago-ong . It is very popular in the region that even big supermarkets sell takway in style - cleaned and plastic wrapped in styro with some additions to make it easier to prepare.

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 usu

An Ilonggo favorite - Suman Latik

Suman Latik is one of my favorite native delicacies - plain suman/ibos topped with sweetened coconut strips or bukayo .
