After attending the Sunday mass this morning, my husband goes to our farm to see how the fruits and coconut trees are. An hour after, he came home and brought some native chickens he bought there.
At 4:00 P.M. he butchered one native chicken for our dinner. He let me prepare it, so after cleaning the chicken, I asked him to chop it in his desired size. I put it on a pressure cooker and simmer it for 25 minutes, adding some ingredients like ginger, spring onions, lemon grass, bell pepper, pechay and gabi and before it became cold, we eat our dinner exactly 5:30 P.M. I'm very full now.
Thanks to my husband who bought the native chickens.

@hereandthere, we used to go to bed past 9:00 P.M. and we already used to do that, eating before 6:00 P.M. but when my husband's sugar goes down, he'll munch chocolate or drink cola and eat some bread.

Native chicken would be good for soup especially with malunggay leaves with some chili leaves.

@sunrisefan Yes, adding only malunggay leaves and chili leaves is good enough.

Native chickens are best for soup. Yum!
This reminds me of a time when we were tested by a group of food-tech students whether salted native chicken eggs or salted commercialized chicken eggs were better. Turns out, native chicken eggs weren't as delicious and as big as commercialized chicken eggs. Still, that was free food anyway. Haha

@tierkreisze i didn't know about salted native chicken eggs, or was it more of an experiment?. how would you compare the two in terms of appearance, color, texture, etc?

@ida123 Ah yes, that too. My father even breaks the native chicken's bones when he adds them to his adobong manok.

I don't know on how to prepare laing, I know this food is famous in Luzon. I tasted it once before when my sister in law's friend from Luzon prepare this food, she dried the gabi leaves and put some shrimp paste on it with coconut and I forget the other ingredients already.

@ida123 because the bell pepper and gabi (taro) in tinola is new to me. we used to put green papaya and talbos ng sili (leaves of the chili plant). over time, we changed it to pechay and sayote, but sometimes use/add potato.

@hereandthere we add bell pepper to kill the odor and gabi to thicken the soup.

We usually cook native chicken in coconut milk. My Mom is allergic to broiler chickens so she preferred native chicken.

@ida123 Yes, my brother killed his native chicken and made tinola but I only ate the soup and the veggies in it. You know why? Because he put the head with neck in my freezer before bringing it to his house and the face of the chicken was sad looking at me when I opened the freezer to get ice cubes. The view of the chicken turned me off from eating.
