I always enjoy watching people cook at a very young age. I started cooking whatever we have in the kitchen as a teenager and didn't know the name of the dish I have just created. My parents are very supportive and would pretend they are in the restaurant during meal time and they would comment if they like the food or not in an encouraging and funny way. I guess this is the reason why my brothers and sister had the passion and love for food too. -------------- June Tomada Young

Laing in Can?
Taro leaves cooked in coconut milk, coconut cream, pork, shrimp, chilli, ginger, onion, garlic, jalapeno pepper, salt and other special ingredients is called "Laing" in the Philippines. Other regions in the Philippines have their own way of cooking this. Whatever style it is, Laing is one of my favourite Filipino dishes.
Here at the Central Coast, NSW (Australia) where I live taro leaves is not available in the market, supermarket or even in the Asian store near us. I may have seen a frozen taro leaves for “laing” stored in the freezer in the Filipino store here but I guess I prefer the fresh leaves.
I missed “laing” that when I saw this in can I decided to try it. Well, as soon as I open the can I right away smell the preservatives. What am I thinking? Of course it has to have loads of preservatives! I didn’t enjoy it. Oh well, at least I’ve tried it.
