Easy Daing Na Bangus Recipe

This easy daing na bangus recipe is simply milkfish that has been marinated in vinegar with much garlic and then fried.

What is Daing?

Daing, Tuyô, or Bilad (literally “sun-dried” or “sun-baked”) refers to dried fish from the Philippines. Fish prepared as daing are usually split open (though they may be left whole), gutted, salted liberally, and then sun and air-dried. There are also “boneless” variants which fillets the fish before the drying process. It was originally a preservation technique, as salt inhibits the growth of bacteria, allowing fish to be stored for long periods of time.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daing

Daing na Bangus is very easy to prepare. It is so tasty that even little children will love it. It is better to have the fish deboned when buying in the market as milkfish is notorious for being bonier than other food fish. In the frozen section of most supermarkets, there is deboned milkfish labeled as “boneless bangus”, which helps to make this recipe a lot easier to prepare.

Classic Filipino Pandesal Recipe

Here is the Classic Filipino Pandesal Recipe that most people are familiar with. Pandesal is a breakfast staple among Filipinos and by learning to make your own, there will be no need to go the bakery every morning.

Pandesal or pan de sal (Filipino and Spanish for “salt bread”), is a common bread roll in the Philippines. It is made of flour, eggs, yeast, sugar and salt. Pan de sal is a popular yeast-raised bread in the Philippines. Individual loaves are shaped by rolling the dough into long logs (bastón, Spanish for “stick”) which are rolled in fine bread crumbs. These are then portioned, allowed to rise, and baked. It is most commonly served hot and may be eaten as is, or dipped in coffee, hot chocolate or milk. It can also be complemented with butter, margarine, cheese, jam, peanut butter, chocolate spread, or other fillings like eggs, sardines and meat. Its taste and texture closely resemble those of the Puerto Rican bread pan de agua, French baguette, and Mexican bolillos. Contrary to its name, pan de sal tastes slightly sweet rather than salty. Most bakeries bake pandesal in the morning for breakfast consumption, though some bake pandesal the whole day.

  • Mould the dough and put back in the mixing bowl, cover with damp cloth and let the dough rise for at least 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • After the dough has risen, transfer to a lightly floured flat working surface.
  • Roll into a log then cut into four to six equal pieces.
  • Take another portion of the dough, roll again into a log and cut into equal pieces, repeat this step until all the dough is done.
  • Roll each piece of dough in breadcrumbs then arrange on a baking tray for at least an inch apart (so it won’t stick together when it rises later on).
  • Leave the dough in the tray to rise again for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Pre-heat the oven at 190°C (375°F) for 10 minutes. If using a fan assisted oven, reduce the heat according to the user’s manual.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until nicely browned outside.
  • Enjoy with different “palaman” like Peanut Butter.

What is Carbonara?

Carbonara is an Italian pasta dish from Rome made with egg, hard cheese, cured pork, and black pepper. The dish arrived at its modern form, with its current name, in the middle of the 20th century.
The cheese is usually Pecorino Romano, Parmigiano-Reggiano, or a combination of the two. Spaghetti is the most common pasta, but fettuccine, rigatoni, linguine, or bucatini are also used. Normally guanciale or pancetta are used for the meat component, but lardons of smoked bacon are a common substitute outside Italy.

The traditional Filipino carbonara includes these three main ingredients: fettuccine, ham, and milk. But in this recipe, we will make it extra creamy by adding cheese and cream.
