This is the story of fod and how people live in the countryside of Luzon. Food is a measure of one's social position. Landlords ate rich, fattening foods and sauces and suffered from bursitis and heart disease. Peasants grew strong on lowly brownrice and the milk of coconuts planted on land they never hoped to own. It was the provinces with the earliest contact or collaboration with Spain, such as Bulakan, Pampanga and Cavite, that imbibed the art of European cooking best. It colonized the native palate. The foods are what we now call our heirloom recipes.

From the author's introduction: "...(W)riting about food is not a matter of dipping into the thesaurus to discover the many ways to say 'tasty.' Instead it means digging deep into human experience, because tasting, eating and savoring are very intimate ventures." Received the 1998 Gintong Aklat Award and considered one of the "bibles" by food and culture lovers and writers.
