the bibingka: serve hot with butter
bibingka vendor at the Paete public market near the national highway.
if you knew Paete to be just the town of carvings, lanzones, and moving saints during Holy Week, you're missing out on so many things.
One of these days, I'll blog about other uniquely Paete culinary inventions: minani, minanok, bibingkang hipon, ginataang santol with alamang et al. Will also look for recipes.
Other versions of bibingka include bibingkang abnoy of Pateros made from unfertilized duck eggs with rotten smell, bibingkang itlog (the less foul-smelling version in Laguna).
Famous restaurants/outlets selling bibingka are Aling Nena's Bibingka in Cubao, Quezon City, Ferino's Bibingka (the self-proclaimed best bibingka in the Philippines) and also the new Bibingkinitan food carts in malls.
Psst, don't forget the shingaling! Tasty! I don't remember you tasting your versin of bibingka. :(
ReplyDeletepaete should be a major tourist draw.
ei resty,
ReplyDeletewe don't call them shingaling like those peddled in Calamba. Call them "mayklu". My brother's friend who also visited Paete called them "pritong pancit" ehehe
naghahanap lang ako ng bibingka eh naligaw na ako dito sa tutubi. paki nga yung laksa at tinag-an kanduli. tenk yu
ReplyDeletepano kaya gumawa ng shingaling?:) favorite ko kasi eh..
ReplyDeleteanonymous, shaingaling is just deep fried noodles, i think miki or lomi pancit noodles... experiment :P
ReplyDeleteLooking for bibingka recipe got me here.
ReplyDeleteYour bibingka capture makes me want just that kind of bibingka. Too bad, too far away from Paete.
Do you have the recipe?
anonymous, will ask around for the bibingka recipe (galapong is rice flour) with buko (young coconuts) and sometimes with salted egg cooked in clay pots and cooked in traditional charcoal smoky flavor
ReplyDeletemagandang gabi po.. gusto ko po sanang malaman kung papano po gumawa ng bibingkang galapong with itlog na maalat.. sana po matulungan ny ako.
