This is a basic cookie recipe that is easy to follow and the results are marvelously luscious. Bake these for a family treat or as gifts. They are a surefire crowd-pleaser.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/ube-crinkle-cookies/feed/ 0 83204 https://thequirinokitchen.com/chicken-tocino/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/chicken-tocino/#comments Sun, 23 Jan 2022 00:42:58 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=18061 Chicken Tocino is another version of the Filipino classic cured meat called' tocino'. The latter often uses pork. For this breakfast or brunch entree, I used chicken breasts and thighs, an alternative wholesome change. Curing the meat in the freezer takes around three days. But once thawed, pan frying the meat on the stovetop takes 20 minutes to transform into a luscious, tender chicken tocino that's both sweet and savory. Best served with sinangag (garlic rice), eggs, and tomatoes. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/chicken-tocino/feed/ 5 18061 https://thequirinokitchen.com/pinaupong-manok-of-tarlac/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/pinaupong-manok-of-tarlac/#respond Mon, 06 Dec 2021 22:26:15 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=17731 This version of Pinaupong Manok (Sitting Chicken) of Tarlac starts with a long simmer of the meat pieces, and ends up as a crispy fried chicken dish. The sole seasoning is salt. Cook the salt-marinated chicken pieces which are bone-in, and have skin-on, in clear broth flavored with garlic for about three hours. When the liquid reduces, and the fat renders, fry the chicken in its own oil till crisp.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/pinaupong-manok-of-tarlac/feed/ 0 17731 https://thequirinokitchen.com/spinach-salad-with-salted-eggs-and-mangoes/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/spinach-salad-with-salted-eggs-and-mangoes/#respond Sat, 03 Jul 2021 05:00:04 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=16824 This easy Spinach Salad with Salted Eggs and Mangoes used the red spinach variety, combined with salted eggs, mangoes, and slices of onions. Filipinos often use salted eggs in salads like this one. The dressing is a sweet-savory combination of sweet rice wine, ginger ale, garlic, fresh ginger, honey and seasonings]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/spinach-salad-with-salted-eggs-and-mangoes/feed/ 0 16824 https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-a-chocolate-cake-loaf-with-zucchini-for-sundaysupper/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-a-chocolate-cake-loaf-with-zucchini-for-sundaysupper/#comments Sun, 28 Aug 2016 04:00:23 +0000 http://asianinamericamag.com/?p=5932 Summer is about to end here on the east coast so I took a few zucchinis and transformed them to Chocolate Zucchini Bread Loaf. For those who want to hold on to the warmth and the lazy days, a good way to do it is to enjoy and preserve summer vegetables. In my case, I used the immense amount of zucchini I had to bake a couple of chocolate loaves. The addition of grated zucchini to the chocolate bread enhanced the luscious chocolaty aroma and gave the loaf a moist, rich texture.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-a-chocolate-cake-loaf-with-zucchini-for-sundaysupper/feed/ 7 5932 https://thequirinokitchen.com/filipino-spinach-salad-with-salted-eggs-tomatoes-and-honey-balsamic-vinegar/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/filipino-spinach-salad-with-salted-eggs-tomatoes-and-honey-balsamic-vinegar/#comments Sun, 26 Jun 2016 05:00:24 +0000 http://asianinamericamag.com/?p=1279 This easy Kangkong- Water Spinach Salad with Salted Eggs and Tomatoes with a Honey-Vinegar Dressing is my go-to side vegetable salad.

After the favorite chicken parts are eaten by the family, keep the leftovers wrapped well and frozen for another day. Then when you're ready to serve this salad, chop up the cooked chicken in chunks. Put together a salad of crisp lettuce greens and vegetables in season like asparagus, sweet bell peppers, sugar snap peas, cucumbers and any vegetables you fancy. Add pineapple cubes and slices of hard boiled egg.
