I’m trying something new to me. My muse is Dan Datiles and his #DatilesFarmacy. He gave 2 dozen fresh eggs from his beloved chickens, and 7 of them were used as a part of this cake. This was a cake I had promised David I would bake for his birthday. I’m a month late (oops) but better late than never, right? 😇 This is a Black Forest Cake. I used a recipe that was in an old cookbook from his mom’s collection. David said Mama Els had baked this cake in the past, so I thought I would give it a go. There are a lot of steps, but if you’re not in a time-limiting environment (like the Bake-Off tent, for example), it’s very doable. This is not the neatest decoration job, but then again, cake decoration is not my forte. I’d love to learn how to decorate cakes, though! #homebaking #cakebaking #blackforestcake #blackforestgateau #chocolatecherrycake #farmfresheggs #freerangeeggs #cherries #sourcherries #chocolatecherry

I received lots of kale in my latest #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy the other day. Naturally, David wanted me to cook this dish once again: a Northern German kale and sausage stew. I used the chicken stock I prepared last Thursday, and once everything was in the pot, allowed this to cook low and slow. David, a former kale hater, became a kale lover after I cooked him this dish! #homecooking #germancooking #grünkohl #kale #kaleandsausage
Here are some of my recent kitchen adventures: ukoy, sweet potato rolls, oven-roasted salmon with lemon and rosemary, and my attempt at soy sauce chocolate chip cookies. Some of these dishes used the wonderful produce from #DatilesFarmacy. #homecooking #homebaking #lutongbahay #ukoy #ukoynahipon #sweetpotatoroll #kingarthurbaking #salmonwithlemonandrosemary #soysaucechocolatechipcookies #kikkomansoysauce
I received a lovely bunch of fresh mint in my last Healing Basket from #DatilesFarmacy, so I wondered, what could I do with this mint apart from mint tea or minted peas? Here’s what I came up with: Potato Salad with Peas and Mint. I followed a recipe by Alexandra Cross, who maintains the “It’s Not Complicated Recipes” blog. David likes it and declared, “It’s a very nice recipe!” The link to the recipe will be in the comments. #potatosaladwithpeasandmint #DatilesFarmacy #ItsNotComplicatedRecipes #freshmint #babynewpotatoes #farmtofork
Trying something new (to me). I received some beautiful kale freshly harvested from the fabulous Dan Datiles. David had a look at it and made a face. “I don’t like kale,” he said. I shrugged. The recipe I had in mind had flavours that he loved, so I decided to take a chance on it. Can I make David into a kale lover? With butter, bacon, smoked beef sausage, yellow mustard seeds, chicken stock, salt, pepper, and Dijon mustard, I managed to convince him that not only was kale edible, it was delicious, too! I had to cut the recipe in half since I didn’t have 3 pounds (!) of kale on hand. I’d say mission accomplished! #germancooking #homecooking #kalesausagestew #kale #grünkohl #smokedsausage #DatilesFarmacy
It took a while, but the brioche is finally out of the oven. This batch yielded one rectangular loaf, one square loaf, and 4 brioche à tête. It takes a while to proof, but the wait is worth it. This used 5 of the wonderful free-range eggs from Datiles Farmacy. #homebaking #briochebread #BriocheÀTête #briocheatete #freerangeeggs #DatilesFarmacy
I’ve been doing a bit of baking in between writing today. The first photo is the mocha chiffon cake à la Goldilocks. I’m much happier with this. I lowered the temperature to 350 °F and reduced the bake time to 20 minutes. I had a nice rise from these. They are cooling now, and my plan is to frost and decorate them on Saturday. The second is trying the salted chocolate miso vegan cookie once again. What I did differently this time was add a bit more flour, bake at a lower temperature, and also reducing the bake time. I’m much happier with these! #homebaking #DatilesFarmacy #cakebaking #mochachiffoncake #vegancookies #chocolatemisocookies #cakeboi #reecehignell
Coming soon! #briochebread #freerangeeggs #DatilesFarmacy
Here is my second attempt at «brioche à tête». This used 5 (!) #freerangeeggs from the wonderful #DatilesFarmacy. I also used European style butter for this. (As to whether or not it was truly in the European style is debatable.) This time, I divided this dough into 16 with each weighing around 73 grams. I am very happy with how this turned out! #homebaking #frenchbaking #briochebread #briocheatete
I was at the Chinese grocery store today, and I saw that they were selling this sliced #bangus! (They also had the boneless marinated ones, but I didn’t go for that one.) I have been wanting paksiw na bangus (milkfish simmered in vinegar) for a while. So here it is. I also added #ampalaya (bittermelon) and Chinese eggplant to this dish. The aromats were garlic, ginger, and onion. Unfortunately, this is a dish that David won’t touch. Too bad for him; that just means more for me! The second dish uses the #upo and the #alugbati from the latest #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy. This was sautéed with garlic, onion, and tomato, seasoned with patis (fish sauce) and pepper, and then I added shrimp to this. The alugbati was added at the end so it doesn’t overcook. I’m happy with how it turned out! #lutongbahay #childhoodfavorites #farmtofork #paksiwnabangus #ginisangupoathipon #niceonrice
More fun with the produce from #DatilesFarmacy! In the latest #HealingBasket, I received a lot of rosemary and some mint. Here is what I came up with to use some of both. 1. Using Ina Garten’s method, I cooked roasted potatoes with rosemary and olive oil. I didn’t measure anything. I used around 1.5 lbs of baby yellow potatoes (half the package), one sprig of rosemary, and a good glug of extra virgin olive oil. I also seasoned it with salt and pepper and roasted this at 400 °F for 40 minutes. Her recipe called for 1 hour, but it was already a dark brown colour when I checked it after 40 minutes. 2. Roasted chicken legs and thighs. I bought a whole chicken, intending to roast the whole chook, but instead, I opted to cut out the legs, thighs, and wings. (I’ll decide what to do with the rest of the chicken later.) I used another sprig of rosemary and added 1/4 tsp each of dried oregano, thyme, and basil. I also rubbed the chicken with some olive oil and seasoned with salt and pepper. This was also roasted at 400 °F for 40 minutes. 3. What should I do with the mint? Thanks to my “diet” of Masterchef Australia and Masterchef New Zealand, I came up with the idea of trying minted peas. This was a very simple recipe: I sautéed garlic and onion in butter/olive oil, added the peas, and then added chopped mint before I removed it from the heat. This was seasoned with salt and pepper. And that’s it! I let my oven do most of the work. #homecooking #roastedchicken #roastedpotatoes #mintedpeas #lovinfromtheoven
After a bit of a break, I received another wonderful #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy. They also included some other baked goods with the produce. This morning’s breakfast: a slice of his wonderful bread with a pair of eggs cooked over easy and topped with #daikonmicrogreens. He also gave a couple pieces of his #taro dessert, which went perfectly with a cup of coffee. #farmtofork #homemadebread

More fun with the beautiful produce from #DatilesFarmacy: 1. Okra. I would have wanted to prepare this with sinigang, but David insisted that I roasted this in the oven. So into a 425 °F oven it went. Not surprisingly, it’s all gone. 2. Sitaw. Also known as long beans, asparagus beans, or snake beans. This was cut and stir-fried in butter and olive oil with garlic, onions, and shrimp and finished with a bit of lemon juice. The result: garlic butter shrimp with sitaw. David loved it. #myjobisdone #happytummy #homecooking #lovinfromtheoven #farmtofork #okra #sitaw
#chocolate chess #pie with #applecidervinegar and #cayannepepper, only at #datilesfarmacy
I cooked ginisang monggo and added the bittermelon leaves to it. To increase the amount of leafy greens in the dish, I added an equal amount of alugbati. This was so flavourful! It’s too bad David won’t touch this dish. He doesn’t like ginger, and he won’t touch anything that contains bittermelon! Too bad for him. That just means more for me. 😇 I used the wonderful produce from #DatilesFarmacy, including the vine-ripened tomatoes, the ampalaya leaves, and the alugbati. #lutongbahay #ginisangmonggo #dahonngampalaya #alugbati #GrabeAngSarap

I received some beautiful chard with my latest #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy. I went simple today: the chard was sautéed with garlic and almonds. I like the flavour of this! #farmtofork #homegrownveggies #healthycooking #rainbowchard
This is super simple. On two slices of my homemade whole wheat bread, I placed two #FreeRangeEggs fried over easy and the wonderful #microgreens from the latest #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy.
I put the oven to work today. Dinner was oven-roasted salmon with lemon garlic butter and the awesome microgreens from #DatilesFarmacy. David wanted the Brussels sprouts, so they got roasted, too. And since it’s a Thursday, it was also bread baking day for me, too. #homecooking #homebaking #ovenroasted #salmon #brusselsprouts #daikonmicrogreens #lemongarlicherbbutter #breadbaking
This is my 15-bean soup with sour cream and daikon microgreens from the fabulous #DatilesFarmacy.
This is Mama Els’ Cake baked in a new (to me) cake pan! David gifted me with the 75th anniversary Bundt cake pan from Nordic Ware for Christmas, and he said he wanted his mom’s cake to be the first baked in it. The cake released from the pan like a dream! This cake used the beautiful #freerangeeggs from #DatilesFarmacy. #homebaking #goldenbundtcake #nordicware #nordicware75th #bundtcake #ibakedacake
Best phone conversation of 2021 #datilesfarmacy
It’s another belated foodie post. Admittedly, ever since my office resumed work in person (hybrid 4 days in, one day remote), I haven’t been cooking as much as I had in the past. Some of these dishes used some of the excellent produce from #DatilesFarmacy. Top row: Chicken soup using homemade stock with alugbati and zucchini; herb-roasted chicken; salmon roasted with garlic-lemon butter, oven-roasted broccoli, and a baked potato. Second row: Spaghetti with meatballs; monggo guisado with alugbati; guisadong upo with ground beef. Third row: Ground pork with fresh green beans; ampalaya con carne with egg; turkey macaroni sopas. #homecooking #lutongbahay #lutongpinoy #lovinfromtheoven
It’s been a while since I posted my foodie creations! This used the beautiful #FreeRangeEggs from #DatilesFarmacy. (David has also been enjoying eating the eggs for breakfast, but I asked him to save some for baking/cooking!) This is what I called Mama Els’ Cake 2.0: a golden bundt cake with maraschino cherries and chopped pecans. I am very grateful to those who suggested Baker’s Joy for the bundt cake pan. The cake released very easily and cleanly! #homebaking #bundtcake #ibakedacake
#datilesfarmacy #delivery #buy #vegetables
More fun with the beautiful produce from the #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy. This time, it’s #PolloEntomatado minus the cilantro/coriander featuring #tomatillos, and a chocolate Bundt cake using the last of the beautiful #FreeRangeEggs. The chicken dish was a wee bit too spicy for the fiancé, and the cake was lopsided (!!!) but I’m happy with how they both turned out. I’ll cut the amount of chipotle pepper I use by half for next time so it won’t kill those who are not used to the spice! #homecooking #cocinacasera #cocinamexicana #healthycooking #malusognapagkain #sarap #niceonrice #homebaking #bundtcake
Nothing fancy… just #freerangeeggs and #microgreens from #DatilesFarmacy today…
I had fun in the kitchen today! I used the #bittermelon and the #okra from the latest #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy. The first dish was the Vietnamese bittermelon soup called #canhkhoqua. It was not as bitter as I expected it to be. I found it quite nice! This was @tommyphameats recipe (not the @padres baseball player). I had a lot of leftover meat, so I formed them into meatballs and baked them in the oven. I also had the thought of roasting the bittermelon in the oven. It’s too bad I overcooked it. Even though they were burned to a crisp, I could not detect any bitterness. Lastly, David said he wanted his okra roasted, so I roasted them for him. #homecooking #lovinfromtheoven
#datilesfarmacy #dance #allstars #buy #vegetables
This is 3 of 7 beautiful #bittermelon that I received today from #DatilesFarmacy #HealingBasket. I was looking for other interesting ways to prepare this when I remembered having seen an Instagram post from Masterchef Australia Season 13 contestant, @tommyphameats. He demonstrated Canh Khổ Qua (bittermelon soup). It looks easy enough to cook, so I will give it a go! It will use just two of these, so I will have another 5 to use. The fiancé will not eat this vegetable (well, technically, it’s a fruit) so I’ll have to come up with creative dishes that I will bring to work with me for my lunch.
Belated foodie post! For one of these dishes, I used the last of the beautiful produce from #DatilesFarmacy. I’m looking forward to the next #HealingBasket which will be coming to me soon! #homecooking #lutongbahay #tinolangmanok #sweetandsourchicken #ensaladangpipino #pinoyspaghetti
More kitchen adventures with produce from #DatilesFarmacy. This time, I used the ampalaya and the last of the free range eggs 🥚 for one dish and the green bell pepper 🫑 for the other dish. Both ground beef dishes, one is ampalaya con carne with egg and the other ground beef with garlic, onion, carrots, and bell pepper. One will provide several lunches for me for next week, and the other was fiancé-approved. #homecooking #lutongbahay #comfortfood #AmpalayaConCarneWithEgg #niceonrice #freerangeeggs #farmtotable #ampalaya #greenbellpepper #capsicum
More fun with the #FreeRangeEggs from #DatilesFarmacy: this time, I decided to bake #ensaymada again. I hope they turned out okay; the dough, after proofing, ended up more sponge-like. Which isn’t quite correct. Since the diameter of the my molds are 9 cm across (about 3.5 inches), my mom teased me, telling me these are “diet ensaymada”! 🤣😂🤣 #homebaking #pinoybaking #sweetdough #filipinobread #merienda #farmtotable #organiceggs #healthyeggs
More dishes with produce from #DatilesFarmacy: this morning, David was lamenting that we couldn’t pop into a breakfast place to have a nice meal of pancakes, sausage, and eggs. I said why don’t we cook our own? These used the nice #FreeRangeEggs. And of course, we had a couple of fried eggs each. They taste so much better than store-bought! One thing though: at least I now know my baking powder needs replacing. These were not pancakes. They were flatcakes! 😂🤣😂 #homecooking #pancakes #pancakebreakfast #healingbasket #farmtotable
Who knew that slicing ampalaya (bittermelon) could be so much work? My mom told me that my grandmother, my Lola Ina, would slice these very thin, as thin as paper. These were the two ampalaya from the latest #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy. Along with a couple of #FreeRangeEggs, this will be sautéed with garlic, onion, and tomatoes. I’ll also add some ground beef to cook ampalaya con carne with egg. This is not a dish that my fiancé will eat, so this will all be for me. So that is lunch for work sorted for next week! #homecooking #lutongbahay #ampalaya #ampalayaconcarne #farmtotable #comfortfood #healthycooking
Today, I decided to cook a Thai dish called Pad Gaprow (Thai basil pork). I used two things from my latest #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy: the Thai basil and one jalapeño pepper. I followed a recipe by Masterchef Australia alumni Marion Grasby (of @marionskitchen), substituting out the Thai chili peppers for one red bell pepper (capsicum). I’m very happy with how this turned out! And it’s fiancé-approved! #homecooking #marionskitchen #MasterChefAU #padgaprow #thaicooking #farmtotable #niceonrice
Yay! The microgreens are back! 🌱🌱🌱 My breakfast sandwich was super happy, and so was I. Also, most of the vegetables from #DatilesFarmacy in the second picture went into my next dish: my modified Nilagang Baka (beef). It was the perfect dish to have on a rainy day (almost monsoon-like weather). I decided to use the #alugbati instead of cabbage, and it turned out very well. I should have put more alugbati in! The vegetables were very soft… overcooked, actually, because that’s the only way my fiancé will eat vegetables. 😒 #homecooking #monsooncooking #lutongbahay #nilagangbaka #farmtotable #DatilesFarmacy #sitaw #okra #alugbati #pandesalsandwich #microgreens #sausageeggandcheese
Beautiful produce from #DatilesFarmacy! I already have plans for all the produce. I look forward to cooking with them! Thank you, Pareng Dan @boogie123hitit!
Simple chicken soup with #microgreens from #DatilesFarmacy’s #HealingBasket. #homecooking #chickensoup #soupisgoodfood
My friend, @boogie123hitit, had delivered a lot of fresh, tree-ripened figs yesterday, so I decided I wanted to try sweet and salty fig toast. The figs by themselves were amazingly good. Adding a touch of honey, extra virgin olive oil, and sea salt elevated this to a whole other level. I used my shokupan, spread the Neufchâtel cheese on it, placed sliced figs on top, then drizzled with honey, EVOO, and finished with a sprinkle of sea salt. Amazing. Thank you, Dan! #sweetandsalty #figtoast #treeripenedfigs #DatilesFarmacy #HealingBasket
#datilesfarmacy #organic #raspberry
More goodies from the #healingbasket from #DatilesFarmacy: freshly harvested lettuce. I added grape tomatoes, dried cranberries, sliced almonds, and croutons to this salad. David said it was the tastiest lettuce he had ever had! #salad #organiclettuce #healthyfood #yummyfood
From yesterday’s #healingbasket from #DatilesFarmacy was a bag full of beautiful herbs: #parsley, #sage, #rosemary, and #thyme. (“Are you going to Scarborough Fair…”) I immediately thought of a roast of some sort. I was leaning towards a pork tenderloin, but the fiancé wanted chicken, so chicken thighs were chosen. Meat loves salt, so the thighs were seasoned with salt and pepper, rubbed with extra virgin olive oil, and topped with the chopped herbs. For extra measure, I added the zest of one lemon. This was then placed in a “hottish oven” (400 °F) until internal temperature reached 165 °F. I decided to go all Food Stylist in the plating. In addition to the rice and the roasted chicken, I created another pantry dish: canned potatoes, canned cabbage, canned Vienna sausage. Garlic, onion, and apple cider vinegar were also added to this dish. I’m glad it was edible! #homecooking #roastedchicken #lovinfromtheoven #pantrycooking
This is Mama Els’ Cake 2.0. I found, in David’s mother’s handwriting, a piece of paper with a couple of modifications to the #rührkuchen (golden bundt cake) recipe in one of her recipe books. The modification: the addition of maraschino cherries and chopped nuts. This one came out of the pan more cleanly than my first attempt at this cake. I also started this in a cold oven. This cake used the wonderful free-range eggs from #DatilesFarmacy. #homebaking #bundtcake #mothersrecipe #goldenbundtcake #coldovenpoundcake #poundcake #ibakedacake #freerangeeggs #maraschinocherries #choppedpecans
Fresh from the oven: cookies that Mama Els Durkop had baked. These are “Braune zucker plätzchen” or brown sugar cookies. David said the smell and flavour of the cookies were familiar to him. I used the #freerangeeggs from #DatilesFarmacy in these cookies. #homebaking #braunezuckerplätzchen #brownsugarcookies
With the leftover Easter ham, a bag of @hurstbeans #hambeens #15beansoup, and time, I cooked this lovely dish and topped it with sour cream and #microgreens from #DatilesFarmacy. #homecooking #slowcookedfood #slowcookedgoodness
Today’s brunch! Clockwise from top left: pan-fried leftover Easter ham, two slices of wonderful sourdough bread from D.O. Goods, and a garlic and coriander omelet with fresh coriander (cilantro) and fresh free-range eggs from Datiles Farmacy. #SaturdayBrunch #DOGoods #DatilesFarmacy #garliccilantroomelet #sourdoughbread #homecooking #lutongbahay
Cake! It’s very simply decorated with French buttercream and sprinkles on top. I’m too unco to try to put it on the sides! This was the vanilla cake I baked the other day and will be the birthday cake for David Durkop. He’ll blow out the candles at a family Zoom gathering tonight. 😊🎂 #homebaking #vanillacake #vanillanutbutter #frenchbuttercream #freerangeeggs #DatilesFarmacy #beginnercakedecor #ibakedacake
Coming soon… (Edited to add: I used 4 #freerangeeggs from #DatilesFarmacy.) #homebaking #birthdaycake #vanillacake #vanillanutbutter #cakebatter #ibakedacake
The #microgreens are back! Thank you, #DatilesFarmacy! #healingbasket #breakfastsandwich #sausageeggandcheese #pandesal #pandesalsandwich
Lemon bars! I used the wonderful #freerangeeggs from #DatilesFarmacy for this. I also added the zest from one large lemon in the curd. This turned out amazing! #lemonbars #homebaking
Using the leftover #hambone from Christmas, I followed @hurstbeans #hambeens #15beansoup recipe. My additions: a dollop of #sourcream and some nice #microgreens from #DatilesFarmacy.
New #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy, including a lot of delicious goodies, microgreens, mint, and free-range eggs! Thank you, Datiles family! 💕 @boogie123hitit
Trying something different. With #sweetpotatoes and #thyme from #DatilesFarmacy, I cooked this one-skillet #chickenandsweetpotato dish. I’m happy with how it turned out. https://www.lecremedelacrumb.com/honey-roasted-chicken-sweet-potatoes-skillet/
It’s been a while since I posted… so I’m back with the #foodie post! The herbs were #sage, #rosemary, and #thyme from the latest #healingbasket from #DatilesFarmacy. I roasted the asparagus along with the #chickenthighs, six on the bone and three boneless/skinless. The chopped herbs were placed on the chicken skin before roasting. The other dish is a #potatoandmushroom dish flavoured with #dill and #sourcream. It’s a Russian recipe, and the cookbook author called it #dachapotatoes. #homecooking #ovenroasted #lovinfromtheoven #roastedchicken #roastedasparagus
Cold weather cooking! When the temperature falls below freezing, comfort food is what I want. Yesterday, I cooked #champorado, and it tasted just like I remembered my mom making it. (The only thing I was missing was the #tuyo (dried fish)…) And today, with some leftover #upo from #DatilesFarmacy I cooked another comfort dish, #upoatsotanghon. Both dishes were Fiancé-approved! 😊👍 #comfortfood #lutongbahay
New experiment using the nice produce from #DatilesFarmacy: a dish called #PolloEntomatado. I call this “Pollo Entomatado, alt.” because I made a lot of changes to the original recipe. First, the produce I used from the Datiles family were #tomatillos and the #parsley. Because the fiancé does not like #coriander / #cilantro, I used parsley instead. He also doesn’t tolerate spice well, so instead of #chipotlechile, I used red #capsicum ( #bellpepper). I’d say despite the substitutions, it still turned out nice, even if it isn’t authentic. #homecooking #cocinacasera #cocinamexicana #healthycooking #malusognapagkain #sarap
More goodies from #DatilesFarmacy: I love the #microgreens on this #eggcheesecanadianbacon sandwich! Definitely not a #mcdonalds #eggmcmuffin! #notmcdonalds #healthybreakfast
I’ve already started using the produce from the latest #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy. I used the #herbs ( #rosemary, #sage, #thyme) for this oven roasted #porktenderloin. I like how it turned out! The second picture has #soysaucenoodles, #adobongsitaw, and the sliced pork tenderloin. #homecooking #lovinfromtheoven #dinnerisserved
New #HealingBasket from #DatilesFarmacy. Lots of good stuff to play with! Thank you, Datiles family! 📸: @boogie123hitit
Using the last of the #vegetables from #DatilesFarmacy: the two #kabochasquash went into this dish, along with #eggplant, #okra, and #greenbeans. This is #pinakbettagalog (minus the #ampalaya since the fiancé won’t eat it). The apartment smells amazing now! #lutongbahay #lutongpinoy #homecooking #smellsarefree #healthycooking #niceonrice
This is #GinisangUpoWithGinilingNaBaka (sautéed bottle gourd with ground beef). The nice #upo came from #DatilesFarmacy. It’s very simple to put together. The #misenplace took a while, but I’m very happy with the results. #lutongbahay #lasangpinoy #lutonggulay #homecooking #niceonrice
“I dare you to cut into us.” No, they’re not judging me at all. 😐😑 #gulayngpinas #kamatis #bawang #upo #DatilesFarmacy
Breakfast sandwich! There is one #egg, #CanadianBacon, #cheese, and #microgreens from #DatilesFarmacy. I used the #shokupan I baked last night. #breakfast #NotMcDo #simpleisbest #食パン
