All I ever see even in some large public markets are chinese cabbage, sayote, baguio beans and carrots (boring). Oh, by the way, thanks for showing what Lubi Lubi is! I only ever know Lubi lubi from the song Enero, Pebrero, Marso, Abril...lubi-lubi... It doesn't make sense that it's in that song, does it? Haha. Hi MM,

When I got married I was introduced to a whole gamut of vegetables I have never even seen or heard of bearing such outlandish names such as teramuki, tugi, tungo, pongapong, himbabao, alibangbang, kulitis and much more.

I want to cook more vegetarian when I start living there but it seems that I am not educated enough which is which and what recipes I can use. If you or anyone knows of a complete reference of Philippine gulay/produce please let me know. I realize there are many kinds of leafy greens one can cook in the Philippines.
