Kalderetang Batangas, Batangas Kaldereta Recipe

Kalderetang Batangas, Batangas Kaldereta
Kalderatang Batangas, Batangas Kaldereta is a version of Pinoy kaldereta that do not use tomato sauce. As the name suggest this kaldereta recipe is very common in Batangas. The meat used is usually beef or goat then stewed with just chopped onions and garlic (a lot of it), generous amount of cheese is also used which make the sauce cheesy creamy. The choice of meat is first marinated in soy sauce and vinegar then sautéed with, again a lot of margarine, I used butter. Then the meat is stewed with the onions and garlic at moderate to low heat till very tender.

  1. mmmmm it looks so good and sinful!!! I'll have to make it one of these days :)

    one question though can I use "Monterrey Jack" cheese or "Cheddar" cheese like can I use any type of white cheese that melts well?

    Mmmmm how about Cream Cheese?

  2. Hi Nathan,
    We use processed cheddar cheese, popularly called quickmelt cheese. I guess the way you describe those cheese I think it will do as long as it does not re-solidify at room temperature. Thanks for dropping.

  4. I've used Kraft Cheddar Cheese. The type that's sold in the round blue can. It melts really well. My Batangueno friend uses it to make their Batangas-style kaldereta. It's readily available in Asian grocery stores in cities with a large Filipino population.

  5. I think there is something missing in the ingredients. Here in Batangas, when you cook kaldereta, you have to put sweet pickles, reno livers spread instead or atay or liver of chicken, then perens sauce. When it's about finish cooking, add bread scrumps to thicken the sauce. I tell you, you'll like it very much because it will be more creamy and tasteful. That's the real kalderetang batangs. Lino

  6. Hi Lino,
    Thanks for your feedback, yes i forgot about the pickled relish.

  7. Well its not only the reno liver spread and pickles relish thats missing in the ingredients but the achuete to add the color and the onions must be atleast double the amount of the meat so you dont need to put water......

  9. and if it's going to be an authentic kalderetang batangas, it would be kalderetang "kambing" (goat). nonetheless, it's good, and better if you try Lino's suggestions as above. as batangueno's, we're very proud of our "brown kaldereta" :)

  11. I tried this last night with beef ribs and it was a hit, I used the canned Kraft cheddar cheese and lots of sweet relish pickles, yum!!!

    I was thinking about what is the PERRENS sauce as what of what someone posted, I think it is the Lea and Perrins Sauce eh, but anyway thanks for this recipe and like i said my family loved it, minus the tomato sauce makes it better dahil we are not fond of it..

  12. PERRRIN SAUCE IS A BBQ SAUCE CALLED PERRINS SAUCE

  13. It is not Batangas-style caldereta without the Worcestershire Sauce such as the one made by Lea & Perrins!!! Trhere are other ingredients missing in your recipe but you will have to find them out!!!

    ReplyDelete
  14. In addition to the Worcestershire Sauce I mentioned earlier, basic Batangas-style caldereta includes peanut butter, banana sauce (ketchup), and tomato paste (to bind all ingredients). Also, I use Velveeta cheese. I have other secret ingredients I inherited from my grandfather, but those are optional. Good luck and let me know how this turns out!

  15. One more thing, Batangas-style caldereta is not cheesy at all. There should be balance among the ingredients: peanut butter, cheese, liver spread, etc.

  16. I agree with Dimasilaw, we, batnguenos put peanut butter in cooking caldereta to make the sauce thicker and yummier.

  17. @Dimasilaw and Ryan,
    Thanks for the feedback,
    Kaldereta is cooked in a thousand ways which defends on available ingredients and personal preference as mentioned, your secret ingredients.
