Pork Adobo with Ashitaba

Pork adobo with Ashitaba by my sister
For those of you wondering, what is "ashitaba" click here. This is an alternative way to make your regular dishes healthy using ashitaba leaves or commonly known as "Tomorrow's Leaf"

You can basically use it as a garnishing, to common Filipino Dishes. Already used ashitaba in "Tokwa't Baboy," Papaitan, Nilaga/Bulalo, Sinigang  both on Pork and Fish. Sorry I have no images when I cooked them five or more months ago.

Later on I will do post them as I cook them.

Ashitaba: Tommorow's Leaf


Ashitaba (Japanese name "ashitaba", Angelica Keiskei Koidzumi), or commonly called by Filipinos as "Asitaba," A herbal plant originated from Izlu Island. That gives profound effect if administered vocally orally like a lettuce. My father at age 60 consumed the herb regularly, and he experienced a revitalizing effect with his eye sight. He usually uses a reading glass in able to read text messages with the help of magnifying glass. Afterwards, he doesn't use the glasses anymore. With his arthritis also, that usually gets a load of his uric acid and making his feet swollen has magically improved. Several friends of him have began using the said plant, and testified favorable results in their blood pressure, diabetes and colon ailments. I am also convinced, and using its boiled leaves to make milk for my two baby girls. I also have tried and used ashitaba leaves to several dishes such as papaitan, sinigang, tokwa't baboy, nilaga, bulalo, adobong pusit and ensalada.  Later I will post articles on how to use ashitaba as veggie to common filipino dishes. Making your everyday food into a healthy meal. So stay tuned. It's up to you my readers to believe it or not, you can always do more research in order for you to determine if this benefits you or not.
