3Not all batchoy taste the same.Not so many perfected the authentic taste of Lapaz Batchoy. Food stalls like Decos or Teds managed to attached their names to the delicious soup. And whoever perfected his recipe hewas surely a rich man now. But mind you mister, not every batchoy served by every stall taste delicious. You may find it tasty from your favorite stall but salty or oily from their respective branch.
The reason of course is….ingredients.
And of course the preparation.
Sorry to tell but only men can prepare delicious batchoy.If you want a tasty Lapaz Batchoy do not try from stalls prepared by women cook, no matter how Ilongga they are, it surely not the taste you want from it. That is not only from my own observation but as well from many batchoy critics around the town. And nobody got a clue why.
The recipe you shared was a good start. Just wondering where did & why did you included shrimp or shrimp paste to your ingredients? Are you sure guys you’re not sharing your homemade pancit lome recipe here?
Anyway here’s the final tip; if you want a delicious batchoy at home, you need to add “Betsin Pating” as your final ingredient.
Remember, there is no original lapaz batchoy. Just some people perfected what others have awfully started.
Pssst, caldo pa gani day!!!
