LASWA RECIPE
Tuesday 24 December 2019
Edit
Laswa is a native Ilonggo recipe made entirely of vegetables with a medium-sized dish as its “sahog.” It is similar to that of the Dinengdeng of the Ilocanos and the Bulanglang of the Batangueños. However, Laswa recipe differentiates itself from the dinengdeng as the former uses salt as its seasoning whereas Dinengdeng uses Bagoong Isda. Laswa is also different from Bulanglang in that the Laswa uses plain water for its broth while bulanglang uses rice wash. It could be said though that these three are essentially the same dish of vegetable stew, but only with regional variations.
