Notes

  • Chill or freeze the rolled sausages before cooking, or they fall apart without casings.
  • Simmer in water first so the pork cooks through before the sugar burns.
  • This is the sweet hamonado style. Vigan and Lucban longganisa are garlicky and sour instead.
  • Day-old cooked rice fries best for the garlic rice; about 220 g raw rice, cooked the day before and chilled, gives 600 g.
