Lauya nga Luppo ti Baboy, Nilagang Pata ng Baboy. Lauya is how they call in Ilocandia the soup dish like boiled pork, beef or any other meat. Lauya is nilaga in Tagalog. Cooking procedure is basically the same on both lauya and nilaga, except for the choice of aromatic that goes in the boiling stock. Some recipe add ginger or some also would add garlic, which I would say its an option to the locality.

  1. So lauya is an Ilocano term, it's what we call nilagang baka or baboy in Pangasinan, too. With the same choice of vegetables.

  6. Hi! Incase you try the lauya I mention above please add the following: Thumbsize ginger smash with a cleaver, 2 bay leaves, 1/2 teaspoon whole peppercorns and 4 garlic cloves smash with skin still on. Salt and pepper and put water all the way to the top and simmer for hours. Please also add achuete and msg. These is deelicious. A favorite in our family. Check the level of water all the time to prevent from drying up or burn.
    Back home, we cook it outside in an open fire coz the price of gas is very expensive. :)
