…but the best way to eat dulong is steamed, wrapped in strips of banana leaves, i.e., if you can get them really fresh (not possible in Manila, I’m afraid). I’ve been successful finding them really fresh in many provincial markets in Luzon, though, both North and South, provided you go to the wet market early in the morning. I just put mix in some salt in the washed dulong, and make flowerettes by cutting up some freshly-picked kamias into small slices. Then make a cross out of two strips of banana and scoop about a full tablespoon on one strip, put around 4-5 pieces of the kamias flowerettes on top and fold the strips. I cook them in earthen pots, until the water’s almost dried up (leave some for a little soup, if you like) then eat them with steaming rice and hot tablea for breakfast. Supradelicious !!!!

There’s a palaman that’s called Joyce’s Dulong in Olive oil and garlic. Where can we buy that thing? It is in a small bottle and cost daw about 300 php.

I’m hungry.

BUT I also love dulong. Several small shops in Manila and Makati sell Dulong in Olive Oil. And I use it as a ‘sauce’ for pasta or use it in my sinangag with just the right amount of garlic.

Shoot. Now, I’m hungrier.

@Maricel: will try that great ‘ginisang kamatis’ concoction of yours

Maricel that sounds delicious. The ginisang kamatis is something I have to try.

Dried dulong is also a favorite in our home. The kids find it easier to eat the regular dilis. I serve it with what is known as “ginisang kamatis” here in Bulacan. Lots of peeled, blanched and chopped tomatoes are sauteed in garlic and onions. Cook while mashing with your cooking spoon until everything has softened. Season with salt to taste and then stir in well beaten eggs. Cook just until eggs set. Serve with the crisp dulong and garlic fried rice. Yummy!!!!
