More Notes for a Bagbagis Recipe
As noted in the recipe, it is advised to get pre-cleaned intestines. If you’re cooking with intestines for the first time, it’s best to lessen the risk of cooking an unfamiliar protein if you’re not familiar with the cleaning needed. Even with pre-cleaned intestines, you should arun it through water and rub it with rock salt then rinse it at least 3 to 4 times.
When boiling the meat to tenderize it, a good tip is to add some salt on the third boil to ensure any bacteria is gone.
If you find all of this to be too much of a hassle, other fried snacks you can enjoy include “Proben” and “Crispy Chicken Skin Chicharon.” You can also try another fried recipe like “Lumpia” or “Crispy Pata.”
