Mr MM. I have never had champorado with my entire life. I think growing up in a chinese family, my dad never serve champorado. I know its odd. I’m going to make my own champorado this week.

Nanay used to make champorado from freshly grounded cacao beans and peanuts. This pasty blend was available in the public market of Hulo, Malabon City. Cacao/peanut ratio? beats me. I guess the peanut imparts the right amount of saltiness to the dish, aside from the added linanam of peanut oil. She used a mix of malagkit and regular rice to yield the right consistency. Served with milk (evap) and sugar on the side. Eat chamoprado with pritong tuyo or tapang baka(crispy,drier version) for that “agaw tamis at alat” experience.

CHAMPION RADO!! this is an absolute Comfort food in our Household up to this Day. Unfortunately i haven’t had this for the longest now. Tuyo and daing seems an odd combination but i could imagine the complexity of champurado fighting the saltiness of the Fish? :)

Imagining further, sounds looks like a chocolate fish contortion, heeehee. And did champurado originate from our hispanic Heritage? I know the “Mexican Chapurrado” is Chocolate based drink with Hominy flour and anise or vanilla bean, that they use to serve for Breakfast. Sometimes mixed with alcohol? Was ours purely a Pinoy version where we added Glutinous rice or regular rice, hence kicking it up a notch?

my version is ordinary rice, “ricoa” cocoa powder and white sugar,
i add evaporated milk when it is served not when its cooked.
then put some “Chippy” or “granny goose tortillas chips” on top.
Sarap !

Put the left over refrigerated (not frozen),
then just put milk and it becomes ice cream champorado.
Sarap !
