The concept of farmers markets may not be anything new. Basically, you buy produce from the farmers who grow them. You get to sample the produce, buy as little or as much as you need, and deal directly with the farmers on the price. But there’s something uniquely different about the Union City Farmers Market in California that makes…
Upcoming Astig Vegan Food Demos
Who doesn’t love food festivals? You eat all kinds of delicious food, listen to live music, shop one-of-a-kind products, and learn something new from workshops and classes. I’ve always enjoyed going to one especially if the event is all-vegan. I still couldn’t believe though, that from being a festival spectator, I am getting invitations to…
Astig Vegan Resource List
A few of my friends have recently told me they’re thinking of going plant-based (I heard angels singing hallelujah in the background). My friends said they don’t know where to start so they would like to find out what I buy at stores and order at restaurants (well, well, I thought you’d never ask!). While I don’t like to self-promote, I don’t shy…
Bay Area Vegan Potluck 2016
Once a year, my friends and I would throw a vegan potluck for family, friends, and anyone who wants to celebrate vegan food in the Bay Area. We call this potluck “Bay Area Vegan Potluck”, usually held at Temescal Regional Park in Oakland. We’re on our third year this year and it attracted close to 100…
Minatamis na Saging (Sweetened Saba Bananas)
You can find banana trees almost everywhere in the Philippines. Most often than not, you’ll see them on the streets, backyards, commercial spaces, and of course at banana farms and plantations. Banana trees in the Philippines are what lemon trees are in California. I guess that’s why the Philippines is one of the leading global exporters of…
3-Ingredient Mango Coconut Popsicles
“It’s super creamy like ice cream, I like it!”, my nephew beamed with excitement after taking a bite of the vegan mango coconut popsicles that I made for him and his brother. Lately, I’ve been spending more time with my nephews. I see them more now because they’re on a summer break from school. And because they…
Vegan Calamari (Astig 2.0)
I thought vegan Calamari would be perfect to eat at a game night – the NBA Finals Game 7 to be exact. I was ready with my ingredients and ready to make vegan Calamari for my family. But time flew by especially because the game was on the same day as Father’s Day and we took our dad…
Common Ingredients in Filipino Cooking that You Should Try
Sometimes, when I look at an ethnic recipe, I get intimidated with the ingredients I haven’t heard or used before. What do these ingredients look like at the store? Which stores carry them? How am I supposed to prepare them? These are just few questions surrounding my thoughts. I wonder if those not familiar with Filipino cuisine think…
ASK ASTIG VEGAN (tofu, black bean sauce, vegan hotdogs)
Hello again fellow Astig Vegans! It’s Tuesday once again and you know what that means -it’s “Ask Astig Vegan” time. In this episode, I’ll be answering three questions about the recipes on the blog and on the Astig Vegan Cooking playlist on YouTube. Thank you for sending your questions. I love hearing from you and…
Vegan Ube Milkshake Recipe
One Sunday my friend asked me if I’d like to go with her to a pop-up restaurant in the city where they sell sandwiches and milkshakes with vegan options including a vegan ube milkshake. Vegan ube milkshakes? I don’t recall having had one before. I was as intrigued as she was so I went with her…
