You should try our chicharon bituka. Ours is grease & oil free.One will not get that sensation of oil ozzing all over your mouth when you bite on it.Upon looking at the container you will notice that there is no oil at the bottom.It has been inverted and brushed clean 3X over leaving you clean tasting chicharon bituka ( without the guilt !!!). You can get ours at the Salcedo saturday market & legaspi sunday market both in Makati

I just love this article. It started with ornamental plants and ended with chicharon bulaklak… :)

iligan’s chedeng peanuts are somehow yummy and tasteless at the same time. the thing is they don’t really taste like much to me, but dang! i can empty that little brown paper bag in nanoseconds, before i can even taste it! then i want to have some more… i don’t get it.

my killer chicharon movie snack: i buy 100 grams each of chicharon bituka and bulaklak, and 50 grams chicken skin. i get the small pack of chicken skin and squeeze it tightly to grind them crispy babies into bits, like bacon bits. i combine the bituka and bulaklak in a bigger bag and pour in the skin-bits, add some iodized salt and a splash of vinegar (i would actually mist-spray the vinegar if i could). i close the bag and shake it like a polaroid picture(Ã¼). now, the chicharon cart doesn’t have calamansi, so i go to the foodcourt where they give it out. i squeeze half a clamansi into the bag and shake that bag some more. to go with this, i have a hot tazo tea (from the nearest ‘where else’ coffeeshop) where i squeeze in the remaining half of the calamansi. i say a quick prayer, then walk in the dark moviehouse…

instead of ‘chicken hair’, can’t we just think of them as ‘fried down feathers’… yummmmm….

I like Susana peanuts sold pre-packed in microwaveable containers, sweet and salty with a hint of spice. Favorite chicharon is Lapid’s Freshly Popped. I’ve tried the chicken skin chicharon, tasty but quite hairy hehe. I remember my mom using chicharon bulaklak for dry dinuguan… really yummy!
