Sangkaterba translates to “pile”. There was no translation of sangdamukal though… :)

Yes, the alimasag are served CHILLED. They taste great that way. Not at room temperature, but chilled. :) Everyone’s translations for katutak are helpful, thanks… I like “heaping” the best. :) Millet, my uncle’s family has a connection/link to the Puentespina’s, hence the sculptures loaned to their gardens… daphne, while in a poll 80% of respondents say they NOW add soy sauce to their adobos, the original adobos had no soy sauce. In fact, until the early 1900’s, I suspect most adobos were made as they were described in the post above. Soy sauce was probably only made commercially available some +/-80 years ago, so for hundreds of years before that the vast majority of the Philippine population probably wasn’t using it. ZharMargne, the serving dishes are everyday white platters and bowls, purchased from Noritake restaurant line for some PHP500 or less over a decade ago. The elevated dishes are simply sitting atop metal things that are sold in restaurant supply stores specifically for buffets, raising trays of cold seafood on a table, etc.

Wow! what a spread MM! the only thing i can say is that you outdid yourself (again)! I have a question though, if i understood it correctly you steamed the crabs and then refrigerated them… and then served them afterwards without reheating? sorry! just wanted to clarify!

BTW, i know this does not impact the post in any way but your paragraph about the bistek tagalog preparation has freshly ground black pepper spelled as “gorund”. another great post MM! :)

Good company and good food. It’s amazing how you are able to make ordinary dishes and appear so elegant and high class just as millet had described. Nagutom tuloy ako… Now i’m craving for everything that you served, especially the eggplant salad, adobo and the ginataang kalabasa… YUM!
