We have featured different Batangueño dishes here and we’re wondering kung ano ba talaga ang pinaka-patok sa panlasa ng mga kababayan natin.
Kung halimbawang magkakaroon ng official dish ang Batangas, ano kaya ang pipiliin ng karamihan sa atin?
If you are not from Batangas, you have to try all these dishes. Let’s get the list rollin’.
Lomi
This comfort food started warming the tummies of Lipeños way back 1960s by a Chinese native named To King Eng. A bowl of lomi never fail to satisfy a Batangueño’s palate especially during this rainy season.
Sinigang na Maliputo
Sinigang can be done to shrimp, beef, pork, or fish, just like cranx ignobilis or simply, maliputo. This dish falls into the list because maliputo can only be found in our very own Taal Lake.
Calderetang Bakang Batangas
Medyo pinasosyal lang ni Chef Paul ng Asian Flavors sa Lima Park Hotel ang version na ito.
What makes this ma-umami dish different from the usual? See how Batangueños cook caldereta here.
Batangas Bulalo
Aside from caldereta, this is another hearty meal that features beef. Oh, this is best with corn added to the ingredients. May kakaiba kasing flavor ang mais kapag inilahok sa bulalo.
Adobo sa Dilaw
This one is popular in the town of Taal. Typical way of cooking adobo but this Batangas version make use of turmeric or luyang dilaw.
Inihaw na Tawilis
Well, you can cook tawilis any way you want. This will show you five ways to cook tawilis. Inihaw na tawilis sa tindagan ang madalas bumida dito sa Batangas, lalo na kapag may outing ang pamilya, the best!
Gotong Batangas
The best ang gotong lamang loob sa umagang maulan at malamig! Well, if you don’t like eating innards, you must learn how. Wag mo na lang tingnan bawat pirasong makikita mo sa gotong ito. Appreciate this as a whole and your stomach will be so happy. Laughs. Goto good to go!
So, alin sa mga ito ang paborito mo?
