Except this Adobong Puso ng Saging, all I could thick of for banana blossoms is to cook it ginataan style. In fact I have cooked and posted several banana blossoms, just click the link list below to check the recipes.


Today I want to share my version of Adobong Puso ng Saging, Banana Blossom Adobo. For this recipe I opted to buy the whole banana buds instead buying the grated banana blossom which are always available in any public wet markets or any supermarket.

I though it will be more authentic if the shredded banana blossoms were shredded randomly at different sizes. For this recipe I used 2 banana buds that I bought from the supermarket.  Usually Adobong Puso ng Saging, Banana Blossom Adobo are cooked without meat vegetarian style or some topped with Fried Dilis.

I wanted to make the best  Adobong Puso ng Saging, Banana Blossom Adobo  so I chose to use pork  for the meat ingredients. Using pork did make the difference, not unless you do not like pork then you could cook the recipe without the meat.

Here is the recipe of my version of Adobong Puso ng Saging, Banana Blossom Adobo , enjoy.
