Adobong Pusit at Baboy, Squid and Pork Adobo

Adobong Pusit at Baboy, Squid and Pork Adobo
Adobong Pusit at Baboy, Squid and Pork Adobo. I first tasted this adobo squid and pork combination at a specialty restaurant at Resorts World in Manila right across NAI Terminal 3 and Nichols. Sine then, I just could not forget about it, it is a fusion of taste of my two favorite adobo, Adobong Baboy and Adobong Pusit. Cooking Adobong Pusit at Baboy, Squid and Pork Adobo is a bit tricky, cooking time of squid and pork are mile apart. Squid when overcooked tend to become rubbery and in contrast when undercooked the fishiness of a raw squid remains. To get away with a rubbery squid, it has to be slow cooked for a long time, but this cooking method makes the squids meat to be on the dry side and size reduced significantly.

To compensate for the different cooking times the squid was added at the final stages of cooking. It is also advice to use a larger size squid or the cut are larger, the squid shrinks significantly during cooking.

    Hi, I was reading this recipe when do you put the pusit.
    Is it after you finish the 30 minutes cook time of the pork
    or do you put the pusit half way of the 30 mins.

Turbo Crispy Pata

Turbo Crispy Pata . “Turbo” in Pinoy cooking refers to a dish cooked in turbo broiler , the most common is turbo chicken . On this post I want to share how to turbo cook crispy pata . This post is actually overdue, several readers have been asking if I had tried to cook crispy pata using the turbo broiler on my first crispy pata recipe a few years back. Click this link Crispy Pata , to see that post. If you are interested there is also a bonelsee version in the archives, click the link Boneless Crispy Pata to see that post. Ok back to my Turbo Crispy Pata , the idea of cooking crispy pata using the turbo broiler is to drain out or at least reduce the fats. With turbo crispy pata we have a healthier version . However the turbo crispy pata would not have the usual crisp skin with moist and succulent meat of a traditionally deep fried crispy pata . At least it is easier to cook, you won’t be dealing with splashes of hot oil. Remember this was my first attempt, th...
