Sheer #bliss I havenât had this meal in a good decade or so since becoming a vegetarian. Loved the classic combo of #karekare and #manggaatbagoong I made #vegan kare-kare w/ both #tofu and #soycurls I made the vegan #bagoong a week ago and still have tons to last me for like a year so I just warmed some up in the microwave w/ #redpepperflakes I spent a lot of time at the Asian market picking out the hardest, least ripe #greenmango I could find. Not bad, but I wish I had some ridiculously hard, sour mangoes, those are the best for bagoong & kare-kare. Growing up in the Philippines we had both a coconut tree and a mango tree in our backyard. The mango tree produced small mangoes but they were hard AF, crunchy, and sour. Iâm drooling over my childhood memories coming home from school, still in my uniform, harvesting a mango or two, and then eating mango with bagoong for an afternoon snack as I do homework on the floor kind of straddling the coffee table (because dancers have to stretch). #saturday #weekend #summer #foodporn #pinoyfoods #goodeats #nofilter #nomnomnom https://www.instagram.com/p/CFV-1qKHClC/?igshid=5atkqvukf3ps
