Crystallized Ginger
is a must have pantry item in my kitchen. Fresh ginger is slow cooked with water and sugar then dried out and coated with more sugar. It is a wonderful addition to chutneys and pork dishes. Of course, you can always just eat it like candy right out of the bag too!
Home Rendered Lard
More and more people are considering lard as a healthy cooking fat. I sure do. It has a great flavor and makes the most tender, flaky and delicious pie crusts.Rendered pork fat is a traditional and naturally made oil for cooking. The fat is mostly mono-unsaturated and has 0 Trans fatty acids. It has less cholesterol than butter. It was a main fat/oil used by cooks before the invention of vegetable oil and hydrogenated fats such as Crisco.

I love to cook Asian. Many ingredients are hard to find in average Super Markets here in Panama. I use many of these specialty ingredients in many our recipes. We offer these items for your convenience.
