they sell kosher salt in some large groceries or S&R. If you can’t find it, use native salt that is NOT IODIZED. Just adjust the salt as the volume of native salt is different than kosher salt due to the larger crystals.

Kamias also pickle well. Also, if you like British-style pickled onions and find Malt Vinegar too expensive, or unavailable, use a well-aged Ilocos vinegar, sukang ilocos.

I will definitely try this one out. I am beginning to like your blog. That instruction you wrote and a lil bit of suggestion and recommendation is really informative. Cool. You see, I’m more of a veggie guy and my life’s been a bit dull eating raw veggies. Though i kinda like it because it’s health, eating same food all the time doesn’t mean there won’t be a day when you just want to try something else. Unfortunately, that “something else” usually turns out to be.. bad for my health.

But i guess not this one.

Thank you for posting this entry , now i can finally do something that would make my fave veggies yummy. Can’t wait til Wednesday. Thanks again. – Markin of Cebu

GEJ- Usually it’s just Datu puti I used as this is what’s always in my pantry but coconut or palm vinegar gives better flavor.I love acharang ampalaya with my fried fish!

Been a long time since I had homemade pickles — I only made it cucumber and green papaya before. And as a gift, we received a jar of really good pickled veggies which was a mix of thin slices of Carrots, Ampalaya, White Onions, Green papaya and Cucumber — maybe you can try this too :-) I can already taste that cold, juicy, pickled singkamas!

Hi Betchay. What vinegar do you usually use?
