of these tips from everyone’s favorite ninong, and get ready to elevate your
home cooking!
Tip
1: Great food needs great cookware, and when you plan to make steak at home,
you need a sturdy cast iron pan.
A nice, tender steak doesn’t require a trip to a fine dining restaurant; all you need is a cast iron skillet at home to cook a perfectly delicious and juicy steak. A cast-iron pan evenly distributes and retains heat, so when you cook steak, the entire surface takes on a beautifully caramelised sear.
“Lahat
ng gusto mong i-sear, masesear mo ng maayos dito kumpara sa ibang material,”
explains Ninong Ry. “Mas mataas ang searing, mas masarap ang luto, mas mag
eenjoy ang pamilya.”
A
nice cast iron pan may be purchased for PHP 630.00 from Rampage City on GLife. Through this tried and tested technique
using a cast iron pan, you can begin having epic steak nights at home!
Tip
2: Make the smart choice with your sandwiches by grilling them. You can even
get creative and grill with a waffle iron!
“Madalas ginagamit ko ang waffle iron ko pag sawa na akong mag pancake. Same mixture, babawasan lang ng liquid, pwedeng pwede nang maging waffle. Ginagawa ko din minsan na sandwich bread yung mga waffle na gawa ko para maiba naman,” shares Ninong Ry.
With
a waffle iron, the outside of your sandwich becomes crispy, but the centre
remains soft and gooey, especially when you add lots of cheese! Ninong Ry
recommends the Sonifer SF-6043, a
portable waffle iron that costs only PHP 674.00 on GLife.
Tip
3: Need help in picking the right kind of beef for different dishes? Get the
finest Sirloin or Salpicao cuts + homemade steak sauce from Chingolo Deli.
Chingolo
Deli is Ninong Ry's go-to deli for meats since they're sourced from grass-fed
herds. Their meats are hormone and antibiotic free, so they’re not only
delicious, but also healthier for you and your family.
The
Bolzico meat at Chingolo Deli is a
100% Argentinian certified grass-fed Angus beef, but they also have a large
selection of meats from which you can prepare a superb sirloin dish or beef
salpicao dinner. They also sell homemade steak sauce to go with their prime
steak cuts. The best part? They’re all available on your GCash app thanks to
GLife!
