How to cook Pancit Habhab
Pancit Habhab Recipe – In Filipino cuisine, Pancit is another term for noodles and was first introduced in the Philippines by the Chinese and eventually it came up with many different versions according to what province of that particular Pancit Recipe came from. In this Filipino dish, we are going to make the famous Pancit Habhab, also known as Pancit Lucban from the Province of Quezon wherein this pancit version originated.
Pancit Habhab is not like any other pancit recipe that we all know since it is prepared and served differently. Though it has some ingredients like the usual pancit recipe such as shrimp, pork, carrots, pechay, and sayote, Pancit Habhab uses Miki Lucban; it is a type of dried noodles but not the same as the pancit canton.
To eat this Pancit, no need to use any utensils since Pancit Habhab serves in a banana leaf, and all you have to do is push the noodles to your mouth. For an added flavor to the Pancit, you need drizzle it with vinegar before serving.

Wow! miss ko na to, mailuto nga mamaya…thanks for the recipe awesome page awesome websites you have ,mabuhay po kayo!
I am not sure what a kilo is but I know my husband would love this recipe.
Sounds like a interesting recipe
Glad I saw this, been longing to cook one for my family!
this recipe makes me hungry! yummy
Whats the difference if I use fork
no problem if you use the fork, the reason it was served without fork and used only banana leaves because this dish is traditionally sold on the streets and the vendor do not provide fork.
Never heard of anything like this before and I’d have to eliminate the pigs liver in it but very interesting dish
Verry nice
