Langkawas (Alpinia galanga) is a plant in the ginger family that bears a rhizome used largely as an herb in medicine and as a spice in Arab cuisine and Southeast Asian cookery. It is one of four plants known as “galangal”. Its common names include greater galangal, lengkuas, and blue ginger. Since this is not very common, we will use lemongrass as a substitute.

Easy Creamy Dalgona Coffee Recipe

What is Dalgona Coffee?

Dalgona coffee is a beverage made by whipping equal parts instant coffee powder, sugar, and hot water until it becomes creamy and then adding it to cold or hot milk. Occasionally, it is topped with coffee powder, cocoa, crumbled biscuits, or honey. It was popularized on social media during the COVID-19 pandemic, when people refraining from going out started making videos of whipping the coffee at home, by hand without using electrical mixers. The name is derived from dalgona, a Korean sugar candy, due to the resemblance in taste and appearance, though most dalgona coffee doesn’t actually contain dalgona.

Pork Kaldereta Bola-bola Recipe

This Pork Kaldereta Bola-bola recipe is an interesting way to make meatballs into a tasty dish. Bola-bola is Filipino for meatballs.

Kaldereta or Caldereta is originally a goat meat stew. It originated from the Philippines. Over the years, variants of the dish have used beef, chicken, or pork.

Commonly, the meat is stewed with vegetables, liver paste and tomato sauce. The easiest way to re-create the liver paste is to use canned liver spread.

Caldereta is derived from the Spanish word caldera which means cauldron. The dish is similar to meat stews from Spain and Portugal which was brought to the Philippines by the Spaniards during their occupation. Over the years, it has transformed into a uniquely Filipino dish.

Kaldereta also has similarities with afritada and mechado.

Kaldereta is usually served during festivities. It is also a preferred pulutan (food or dish prepared for a drinking session).
