My aunt's helper prepared a usualy Filipino viand, "paksiw". It is a dish that is paired with rice, it contains slices of ginger, bittergourd, and eggplant. The fish is cooked and simmered in vinegar. I am not really fond of this dish especially if milkfish was used. I prefer a different type of fish. I asked my husband that we got to this new mart. We have Family Mart now in the Philippines, and it is near to the place we temporarily reside. I came to know this Japanese food from Japanese drama and anime.
The mart has a lot of items. They also have cooked food choices like korokke or Japanese croquettes, which consists of different flavors. They have salmon and ham. In my previous post, I made Spam korokke. They also have fried shumai or siomai, sharksfin and lobster balls. I ordered lobster balls, aside from the Onigiris (triangle shaped rice with filling and wrapped in seaweed). I bought two flavors of onigiri, tuna and kani (crabsticks). It is mixed with mayo. The mayo was very rich and creamy, maybe they used the popular Japanese mayo, which is called Kewpie. Kewpie, I read uses a lot of yolk that is why it is very creamy. The tuna onigiri has milder flavor compared to the kani. I like the Kani better. They have other flavors like spicy pork, chicken teriyaki etc.
If you want a filling snack, or a light meal, better grab an Onigiri. Oishi!
