Adobong Batangas, Batangas Adobo
Batangas Adobo, Many years ago when I was starting to cook I have an old cook book by Nora Daza titled Let’s Cook with Nora Daza. This book has helped me learned how to cook and was the source of my inspirations. Today I would like to share the Batangas adobo recipe from that book.

Adobong Batangas,

I am not sure if it still true today that the Batangas adobo is cooked this way. In fact I have to modify the recipe to adjust to my cooking preference. This version of adobo do not use soy sauce, annatto or atsuete is used instead. The recipe call for beef meat, heart and liver, and pork meat. Below is a copy of the original recipe taken from the book. I would like to give credits to the book author Nora Daza and publishers, National Book Store, if you are interested of having that book go visit any of their branch.
