Saba and Uyap...

Shop at More Food Adventures

Sorry for the not so clear image, but that is Pork Liempo sauteed in Red Bagoong or what is locally known as prawn paste or "uyap". Uyap has this distinct pink color and salty taste...

Pork Liempo sauteed in Red Bagoong is a very delicious partner for Steamed Saba or known locally as "linung-ag nga saging".... We have been raving about the Saba here in the islands as the taste is rather different.. And just one saba will make you full already...

My cousin told me of a foreigner friend of hers who came to the island looking for Wifi connection, as well as hd tv antennas in the year 1997.. When he ate the saba and uyap by the sea shore, he forgot about his wishes and went on further and explored the island and all it can offer...  Of course, nowadays, there is Wifi everywhere and even cable television... So apart from exploring the island, there is no reason to get bored at all.. If nothing else will work, there is always the yummy foodies...

Paco (wild fern)

Shop at More Food Adventures

When you live in the island where fresh produce abound, I am sure everything is healthy.. And if food eaten is fresh, then it will help make a healthy body..

Above is a variety of fern, locally known as "Paco" that grows only in the mountainous parts of the island as well as in the cool forests... As we all know, Camiguin still boosts of forests and in these forests, lots of wild plants grow, and are eaten by the locals..  They can be found at the market place and sells rather cheaply.. Imagine, a bundle of Paco will cost only P 5.00 and to cook it is rather simple.. 

All you have to do is saute onions, garlic, meat (pork, beef, chicken or even tuna) and add the Paco heads... add soy sauce, simmer, and taste..Yummy and healthy.. I wonder if one will still be busy reading m5 extreme reviews after knowing the nutritional value of Paco...

My sister sweet loves this so much, she is craving for this every time she thinks of Camiguin..
