Yesterday I made a Tuyo Pasta for dinner using a bottle of Gourmet Tuyo which our neighbor gave us the other night. Tuyo is a salted dried fish (usually herring) or what we call salinas fish. In the Philippines, tuyo is considered as a poor man’s food because it is cheaper among the dried fish being sold in the market but it has come a long way since it is now used in several recipes. It could be fired plain or bottled as a gourmet meal with olive oil and black sliced olives.
Instead of linguine or spaghetti noodles I made use of macaroni pasta, one green bell pepper and carrots. Topped with grated cheese it is a yummy dish. You won’t need to add so much salt to the dish since tuyo is salty but it compliments the macaroni pasta.
Tuyo Pasta
This is actually my first time to make Gourmet Tuyo pasta since a bottle is quite expensive. Mom and Josef loved it. I think it even tasted better than the Spanish sardines in oil which I usually use when I don’t want tomato sauce or ground pork/beef in our pasta dishes. (more…)
