00:00Every Sunday, this cockpit arena is full of sabongeros in Calaseo, Pangasinan.
00:10Each sabongero has his own baton.
00:13Jefferson is a fan of sabongang.
00:17He traveled an hour from San Carlos, Pangasinan to Sabongan.
00:21Aroma to wonder!
00:24After winning, Jefferson is eating his favorite food right outside of Sabongan.
00:32Winning at sabong, winning at the taste of the soup he's swallowing.
00:39The soup he's swallowing is not only made by sabongeros, but also by Dayo.
00:44The beef soup is called Kaleskes.
00:49But it's not like the normal beef soup that is usually served in hoglaman.
00:55Because Kaleskes has stars, books, children's home, heart, blood, and beef trotters.
01:04That's why these brothels are always called Juniel's Eatery because there's a lot of people eating here.
01:10For P100, you have rice and a bowl of Kaleskes with anli soup.
01:17Kaleskes is a word in Pangasinense that means star.
01:23This is their version of goto like in Batangas.
01:27But what makes Kaleskes special is the rice that is more sour and the blood that thickens the soup.
01:35That's why it has a different flavor.
01:40It's delicious. It's just right for the rainy season.
01:43We always come back here.
01:46Angelina started this recipe back in 1974.
01:52Kaleskes was already famous in Pangasinense.
01:58I wanted to cook because there are a lot of people who cook here.
02:04But what I need to do is to mix the blood to make the soup thicker.
02:11Angelina started this event in Kalasyao in 1994.
02:17The recipe that she taught her countrymen didn't change until now.
02:22In fact, cooking Kaleskes brought life to her family.
02:28My four children studied here in Kaleskes.
02:33Our life got better because my children got a job after they graduated.
02:40Now, Angelina is 75 years old.
02:43Angelina filled the recipe and business for the second generation of her family.
02:48We are the ones who continued.
02:51We thought of this place to make it more spacious, cleaner, and to cater more customers.
03:03Since it was a small place in the market, they were able to build a bigger place here in Kalasyao.
03:11It is right in front of the Pangasinense Coliseum where the festival takes place.
03:16That's why most of their customers are from Bungero.
03:20Jefferson is one of our wanderers.
03:23Today, with Jefferson, RJ is also from Bungero.
03:27Let's eat Kaleskes!
03:30Even though there is a heavy rain, they still go to Junel's to eat Kaleskes.
03:38Even though we don't have a chicken farm, we still go to Junel's to eat Kaleskes.
03:46This is their comfort food.
03:48They say that the hot soup is perfect, especially when it rains.
03:52Win or lose, we still eat Kaleskes.
03:56Since then, Kaleskes has become an important part of the lives of the people of Pangasinan.
04:02A lot of people eat here.
04:04You won't be able to leave Kalasyao if you don't try Junel's Kaleskes.
04:10That's why the recipe of Kaleskes, which has a lot of food, is a continuation of their family.
04:18Our future plans here in Kaleskes is of course to continue the future generation.
04:24So that at least the taste that we have since 1994 can be continued by our children in the future.
04:37Some may wonder, is it healthier to eat beef than pork?
04:42According to the expert, it is still healthy, especially the intestines.
04:48When it comes to the intestines, if we eat it occasionally,
04:53there is no problem, especially if the amount is not too much.
04:57If it's like a small cup, but we need to remember that the organs inside
05:04or organ meats have the highest level of cholesterol compared to all parts of beef.
05:23Kaleskes is a part of Kalasyao.
05:26Kaleskes is a part of Kalasyao.
