After several rice meals, I found myself craving bread. However, when I went to the nearest convenience store, they were out-of-stock of half-loaf bread packs. So, I ended up with one whole loaf of bread. I usually can’t consume a whole loaf of bread within five days (usual shelf-life), but being an advocate of #notofoodwaste, I had to think of ways to enjoy the said loaf of bread. I originally just wanted some toast and leeks omelette. I ended up eating bread for five consecutive days, so I had to rack my brains on how else I could enjoy this carbohydrate.

I’ve always enjoyed fusion cooking.

Nilotlot is a cooking technique practiced by some Lumads. This style of cooking uses bamboo as the main cooking vessel and protein ingredients like native chicken or fish are used depending on the the IP group’s location. Aromatics are added like ginger, lemongrass, and specific herbs foraged or planted by the Lumads. Young coconut meat and coconut cream are also used.
