New Ajinomoto's Porksavor - Your New Cooking Saviour

Thinking about setting up a separate food blog where I can share with you my other passion besides writing stories, would you visit it?

Well, let's just set it aside, I know it will take a day or two for me to design the page and place widgets and everything. So, for now, I would like to share my recent discovery (as if I was the first lol) in delicious cooking. By the way, I thank my Facebook group Mommy Bloggers Philippines for this great opportunity.

The newest addition to the famous Ajinomoto company that gave us super delectable umami foods, now comes PORKSAVOR

Ajinomoto's Porksavor
All-in-One Seasoning

Know more about Porksavor on this Press Release:

Savor the deliciousness of the new Porksavor™

Filipinos love food with strong meaty flavors, which is why saucy, soupy or stir-fried dishes would usually be accentuated with pork meat or broth. It is for this reason that Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation (APC) came up with a new product called Porksavor™ All-in-One Seasoning.

Porksavor™ is made from natural pork meat extract and bone broth, complete with spices and seasonings to bring out the deliciousness of home-cooked dishes. The new Porksavor™ is available in 8-gram packs for only PhP 2.00 Suggested Retail Price (SRP). It is truly an affordable way to draw pork flavor goodness in dishes without the cholesterol.

Now that you have a bit of a knowledge of what  Pork Savor is, I would like to share my recipe of PANCIT TAPA. My kids are very picky eaters and they don't eat rice. They prefer bread and pizza and pasta, more on pancit bihon and canton, that is why I chose to do this recipe I created for my kids and also for my husband because he loves my special tapa. 

I have not seen any pancit that has tapa bits in them so here you go.....

SPECIAL PANCIT TAPA

Ingredients:

2 pcs chopped garlic
1 medium sized onion (chopped)
1 packet Ajinomoto Pork Savor
1/2 kilo canton noodles
medium sized can of pieces and stems mushrooms
soy sauce
water

Tapa mixture:

1/2 kilo Beef Sirloin (cut into strips and bits)
3/4 cup evaporated milk
fish sauce to taste

Procedure:
Mix the sirloin, milk and two tablespoons fish sauce, then half of the Ajinomoto Porksavor sachet. Set aside for 10 minutes. Then place it in a pan, let it dry then pour cooking oil to fry until golden brown. Set aside.

Saute garlic and onion in a wok and mushroom and the remaining contents of Ajinomoto Porksavor sachet. Add a cup and a half water to boil and some soy sauce. Place the pancit canton noodles. Keep on mixing so the noodles so it will not stick on the pan. When noodles are already cooked, add the tapa bits. Serve while hot and with bread.

My finished product...sooo delicious!!! 
Oh, not because I cooked it, its just really delicious eh!


My husband and kids loved it they can eat it for lunch and dinner as well.

Ajinomoto Porksavor All-in-One Seasoning is made from natural pork and meat extract and bone broth, complete with spices and seasonings to bring out the deliciousness of home-cooked dishes.
