Cooking is one of the basic skill I'm still in the progress of learning and hopefully to master in the future. As a housewife and a mother, it is important to me not only to cook delicious and nutritious meal but I make sure of ingredients that I use. So when I got an invite from Ajinomoto for the launch of PORKSAVOR, I am so excited because our family are fan of Ajinomoto products since then.
True to the activity entitled “Step Up Your Cooking with PORKSAVOR®”, Ms. Nancy Reyes-Lumen (a TV Personality, Co-Author of Malunggay Book, known as Adobo Queen and popularized the word Pinoy Umami) and the brand ambassadors conducted live cooking demonstrations in a bid to challenge homemakers to step up their cooking and bring out the meaty goodness of home-cooked dishes using PORKSAVOR®. The show kitchen of the Center for Culinary Arts was filled with the delicious meaty aroma of dishes cooked for the audience.
The most important tip Ms. Nancy Lumen-Reyes shared was when we are transporting a pack of food, leave a space at the center because bacteria starts there especially dense foods like pancit and macaroni salad. Kaya pala ang bilis mapanis ng pansit. Now we know!

PORKSAVOR® was launched June 2014 and because of a certain enjoyment of Filipino household for eating pork, this product was made. It uses real pork meat extracts which guarantee to have quality standard and product. The function of PORKSAVOR® is to enhance overall taste with it's general meaty flavor and can apply to many dishes. It comes in 2 sizes, 8 grams for P2.00 and P250 grams for P54.00.
I really enjoyed the live cooking demo. I didn't expect that Ms. Nancy is very amusing and entertaining. Her sense of humor lighted the whole place. Mrs. Bambi, is a mother goal and inspiration for me and Enrique Gil is very natural and bubbly person. If you would like to have the recipes, you can download it here.

Enrique Gil is so cute!! Lol sorry if that's what really caught my attention hehe. I think using pork savor would be great for ginisang mga gulay so that may meaty taste parin hehe, I think I would try that one! ;)
ReplyDeleteHave seen Enrique for the first time and he seemed decent and nice. I also like his onscreen partner. Sana I get to see them both in Ajinomoto's next events.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried a dish with Pork Savor. I wonder if it taste better with other seasonings in pack. Regards to Enrique. Hahaha
ReplyDeleteI tried using pork savor at home and the boys and even my mom loved the dish. The meaty taste was there though I didnt put any meet. On out next grocery trip, i plan to include pork savor in our list.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember the last time we used flavouring in our dishes - may dad has poor kidneys kasi. But when eating outside, I still prefer strongly flavoured meals haha!
ReplyDeleteOh Hi Enrique! Hahaha..i love watching cooking demos, i dont know why, I have a thing for it. Haha. and yes we use pork savor at home.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the recipes. Since my husband is trying to cut down on pork, I might introduce him to Pork Savor. :)
ReplyDeleteWow. I wish i will also master cooking for my family. I hope to try porksavor. I'll share it to our tsep Dad. ;)
ReplyDeleteI use pork savor for my cottage pie. I miss making it na nga. This post reminded me of it. Teka..leave a space at the center to leave the bacteria out? Great tip! Will remember that.
ReplyDeleteHi, Mommy Lady Anne! Thank you for sharing. Would you know the difference between PORKSAVOR and MSG?
ReplyDeleteHaha. Seeing a guy cooking in the kitchen was definitely a thumbs up, what more pa, to have such cutey- Enrique Gil to cook for you. =P
ReplyDeleteI think I am one of those moms who need to step up my cooking because I can only cook fried chicken haha! I will try the recipe, thanks for the link :)
ReplyDeleteWe haven't tried Pork Savor here at home yet because we're used to another brand. But it might just be worth it to check this one out to compare. :)
ReplyDeleteBut I've long since turned my back on seasonings like this and Magic Sarap. :( But interesting trivia on the pansit and why it's easily spoiled.
ReplyDeleteAw! This is one of the events that I really hated myself for being late, di tuloy kami natuloy. Nakita ko sana si Tenten.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried pork savor yet but it sounds like a nice seasoning. I'll try it next time.
ReplyDeleteI'm also still learning how to cook. I can cook simple dishes and I also rely on flavor enhancers like Pork Savor para magkalasa yung luto ko :p
