Agpalaran....

T his longganisa thing in me just will not go away. Jim & I will "agpalaran" and venture out into longganisa Alaminos making this weekend.

I chanced upon this recipe of the famous longganisa Alaminos from the www.alaminoscity.gov.ph website. I would consider this as a very reliable source - no mabalin la kuma nga saludsuden kenni Aling Charing, dayti suki ni Mama idiay palengke.
Awan met itti pork casings nga makita idiay Walmart so I ordered collagen casings ( salamat uli Ramil )at Amazon.com for pork casings substitute.
