Offal

Organ meats, they are sometimes called. Offal includes beef tendon, beef tongue, pork hocks, pork and beef liver, beef tripe, chicken gizzard and liver.

In Northern America where beef knee caps are fed to the dogs, people don't know what they're missing. The gelatinous meat around the knee caps is divine. Patience is required though to make it fork tender. It took three hours to cook this beef knee caps a la bistek.

Pork, mushrooms and green beans adobo in serving plate

Pork, Mushrooms and Green Beans Adobo

Pork, mushrooms and green beans soak up the salty-tangy-garlicky Filipino adobo sauce to perfection.

Baby portobello is used in this recipe but button mushrooms, shiitake and shimeji are good substitutes.
