You don’t need to go on a vacation for the Batangas dishes you love: you can easily recreate the dishes at home!
1 Batangas Goto Recipe
Unlike the goto that you are familiar with, in this recipe, the “goto,” the beef tripe, is really the star. It’s made of delicious stewed parts of beef and pork. Instead, the rice comes on the side, piles, mountains of it to eat with this delicious concoction.
2 Bulalo Recipe
Batangas and Tagaytay are both home to bulalo because of their history of raising cattle. Hence, no Batangas or Tagaytay trip is ever complete without this delicious beef stew. No wonder sipping on the rich soup and getting that slurp of marrow never fails to bring back wonderful memories.
3 Adobong Dilaw
The bright yellow tint of this adobo isn’t just for show. Fresh turmeric not just colors, but gives this adobo dish another depth of earthy flavor.
4 Panutsa Recipe
These candied peanuts are quite addicting. Panutsa is actually also the name of the unrefined cane sugar that is used to give this nutty dessert-snack its distinct flavor. Although you may not find that special sugar at grocery stores, you can now buy it through Honestbee!
