Food Trip 83 - Nilagang Baka

Among the red meat, beef is my favorite.

Frozen meat are prevalent especially in the city.  But in rural areas, fresh meat are readily available every market day.  And nothing beats the taste of fresh meat.

Nilagang baka is one of the favorite dish in the Philippines.  Almost every part of the country has its own way in preparing nilagang baka.  In our place, nilagang baka can be served depending on the vegetables that are available on a particular season.

Perhaps the most common recipe of nilagang baka has cabbage, potato, and beans on it.  But regardless of the vegetables in nilaga, one of the best stuff that I always look forward to a nilagang baka is the beef tendon.  I find it fun and enjoyable if beef tendons are included aside from having the red meat itself.  And beef tendons are best appreciated only if it is fresh.
