I love Pako in fact I have an organic pako farm in the city of san fernando here in pampanga. I want to study this crop so that we can know what are the other uses of this plant. And I just want to add that here in pampanga pako are abundant. And ensaladang pako or fern salad is very great food.

The first time I tasted pako was only when I was already here in Manila. I have a suki in a nearby talipapa who ocassionally sells pako from Laguna. A bundle cost 10 pesos. I usually cook it in gata (being a Bicolano, my husband likes it spicy) and hipon or sugpo which I also bought fresh from talipapa. Normally, after the gata has boiled and shirmps were cooked that the time when I put the pako leaves because cooking them for a long time would lost their crispiness.

i prepare pako mostly salad with vinegar and sugar, itlog maalat & tomatoes & onions.. but lately i tried stir fried with tofu and oyster sauce.. sosie!

thanks for the tips.. puede pala ginataan and sahog sa sinigang.. just like fresh mushrooms put them anywhere.. eat them anyhow..

my brother eat almost everything raw- imagine eating raw okra and sitaw (the thin ones, yung wala pa masyadong buto) careful though with those that have been sprayed.
