Not Well-Known Food: Kamangeg

Kamangeg (Dioscorea luzonensis) is the name of this food. It is a kind of root crops. We can get this type of food seasonally. They dig the soil and find this root crops. The month of August until November will start to produce this root crop to the consumer like me. The color of this food is brown but when we peeled it will turn color white. I can say that Kamangeg is delicious than other root crops. Kamangeg is nutritious because no preservative added. Limited Edition only because producer needs to stress first herself or himself to dig the soil on the mountain until we can buy it to the market.

When you peel the Kamangeg be careful because it will be dangerous on your skin. It's itchy. But Kamangeg is very affordable food. 30 pesos only can buy Kamangeg and your tummy will be satisfied. Kamangeg isn't popular food. But one thing I can sure you when you will taste the recipe of this Kamangeg all your problems in school will immediately go to your anus.

One of the recipes I like is the Ginataang Kamangeg. The ingredient in making Ginataang Kamangeg are coconut milk, banana fruit, peanut, sago, rice, a pinch of salt and sugar. The ingredients are very cheap so Why would I choose the expensive food if there is Kamangeg I love. Another recipe for Kamangeg is Boiled Kamangeg. You just boiled the Kamangeg and add a pinch of salt again and ready to eat. It is very easy to cook when you don't have time to cook. You can make fried Kamangeg like the french fries buying in the fast food but Kamangeg is really cheapest food but delicious.
