I hope everyone is having their blessed holy week. This break is indeed an opportunity for us to gather, and re-validate our understanding of what is the real meaning of lenten. With that I am wishing everyone a glorious one.
Speaking of lenten, one of the things we observe is the common tradition, fasting. And by fasting it means sacrificing our usual meal, specifically pork. But anyway, I wont talk traditions and beliefs nor religion, this time I will share you what I found to make this fasting interesting. Fisherfarms, the pioneer in aquaculture products processing created this meal for us this lenten season! So for those who are interested in observing their fasting well, here are some of the guides from Fisherfarms!

When I first opened this Rellenong Bangus, I noticed that this is bigger than most rellenos in the market; great for family gatherings, outings, and other special occasions. Also this is baked, not fried, so less fat, I love this because it is very juicy. Specially formulated by chef Reggie Aspiras, this rellenong bangus is made with premium ingredients, such as sweet potato, shrimp, and other special spices.

Fisherfarms Fish Hungarian Sausage 310g / Fisherfarms Fish Frankfurter 250g
What I like about Fisherfarms is that they also have sausages. For instance this Fish Hungarian Sausage is a good source of protein and, it has no trans fat. Made from milkfish (bangus), it is also gluten-free, casein-free, nitrite-free. You will notice that is has a bit of coloring, fillers, but still made from fish – no pork, beef, or chicken.

BENEFITS OF USING VIRGIN BEECHWOOD CHIPS IN SMOKED PRODUCTS VERSUS REGULAR SAWDUST
FOOD SAFETY – Unlike saw dust wherein the wood source may be subjected to chemical treatments such as varnish, paints, solvents, pesticides and insecticides, virgin beechwood chips are made from selected untreated wood. Using virgin beechwood chips is a much safer method as we do not introduce contaminants into the product that may be generated during smoking.
HIGHER QUALITY AND CONSISTENCY – High consistency in the quality of smoke from virgin beechwood chips and shorter smoking times—therefore, better quality than those smoked with regular sawdust. Virgin beechwood chips are made exclusively from selected untreated beechwood from the domestic forests in Germany. These chips are dried to standard low moisture content, which prevents mold and growth formation. Beechwood chips consistently give the same quality and quantity of smoke with every use. It provides a delicious natural smoke flavor to the product over a shorter processing time compared to regular sawdust (which would have inconsistent moisture content, unsecured risk from contaminants, and gives a musty smoke flavor if contaminated with molds). Shorter smoking times also give the product a better eating quality (more moist and juicy, not dry). Products smoked with regular sawdust tend to be drier as they need to be smoked longer to achieve the sufficient smoke flavor.
