FOOD OF THE DAY- HUMBA

  
        This dish is an original Cebuano dish. I have only seen and tatsted this dish in Negros. Humba is as simple as any Cebuano dish could get. Ingredients include pork, garlic, black beans, salt, ubad ng saging and water every now and then. Although it includes few ingredients, it requires longer cooking time as the pork should be really tender- a characteristic which defines humba. I don't know the logic behind but humba tastes best if left to stand for a day or two. 
        Humba is very easy to cook. Just boil pork in water until very tender and add the rest of the ingredients. There is a variation of this dish which tastes sweet but i prefer the original recipe. Frankly, this is not for those undergoing strict diets because there's  a lot of pork fat in here- meaning a lot of calories. But if you want to pig out, this dish is perfect. It may look the same as adobo but you can definitely tastes the difference. It is characterized by the pure pork flavor thus I advise you to eat this with soda or juice or anything to counter- act the overwhelming taste.

English cuisine

English cuisine


English cuisine encompasses the cooking styles, traditions and recipes associated with England. It has distinctive attributes of its own, but also shares much with wider British cuisine, largely due to the importation of ingredients and ideas from places such as North America, China, and India during the time of the British Empire and as a result of post-war immigration.
