00:00Let's now go to the center of the province of Aklan,

00:02to Calibo,

00:04where you can find the 220 hectares of bakawang

00:08that the Aklanons themselves planted and cared for.

00:11This is also what gives them livelihood.

00:14There are many different kinds of food that you can get from bakawan or mangroves.

00:20Aside from fish,

00:23there are also shellfish, which they call tuwai.

00:28Then,

00:29right there,

00:31in the mangroves,

00:33right there in the wood,

00:36where it's already rotting,

00:38there's something that they call tamilok or woodworm.

00:44And they say it's delicious.

00:46They eat it.

00:47They don't need to cook it anymore.

00:49Just with vinegar, it's already delicious.

00:51Let's get some tamilok.

00:55I'm here with Kuya Roderick,

00:57the tamilok expert.

01:00We're going to get some tamilok.

01:02Tamilok is found in places where the wood is already rotting, right?

01:10Yes.

01:10So, what we're looking for is dead wood,

01:15like this one.

01:16Because in dead wood, that's where the tamilok lives.

01:20This is the old one.

01:21Is there tamilok inside?

01:22Yes.

01:23There, Ma'am.

01:24What is it?

01:24That's where it's rotted.

01:26Here, we can bring it there.

01:28Okay, Kuya, go ahead and do that.

01:31Wait, what did I leave behind?

01:33My jeans got stuck.

01:35I'll just use my feet.

01:37My feet are here.

01:38You're so heavy.

01:41I'll just walk and I'll be able to carry it.

01:43Oh my gosh, my feet might get stuck.

01:46Using a plier,

01:48they will first cut the wood in the middle

01:50to get the tamilok inside.

01:57You can also tap it to get the tamilok inside.

02:04Then, they'll wash it in water

02:06to get rid of the dirt and dirt.

02:11Once the tamilok is clean,

02:13you can eat it with vinegar.

02:15Okay, can I eat it now?

02:24Your vinegar is so strong.

02:26I'll have another one.

02:27Wait, their vinegar is so strong.

02:38It tastes like a tamarind.

02:40But your vinegar is also delicious, right?

02:43The vinegar is like a tuba.

02:46And then, it's so soft.

02:49It tastes like a tamarind.

02:51It's okay.

02:53There's no bitterness.

02:54And you won't taste the wood.

02:57What's delicious about their vinegar is that it's a tuba.

03:01Yeah, it's okay.

03:04I can eat it.

03:09So this is the tamilok that we ate earlier.

03:12We just soaked it in vinegar.

03:14But now, what Ate Lyn will teach us

03:17is tamilok na tinorta.

03:24Preheat a pan and add cooking oil.

03:27In a bowl, mix eggs, salt, seasoning,

03:31carrots, white onions, tomatoes, and tamilok.

03:36The tamilok tastes like an oyster.

03:39It's like an oyster cake.

03:43So it's like an oyster cake.

03:46Yes, ma'am.

03:52Fry it for a few minutes.

03:55When it's done, you can remove it.

03:58Our tortang tamilok is ready.

04:02Okay.

04:03Tortang tamilok, let's taste it.

04:13It's like an omelette.

04:15That's how it looks.

04:22Actually, you won't taste the tamilok that much.

04:26The onion, onion, and carrots taste is more dominant.

04:33You know the Spanish omelette?

04:35The onion and tomato omelette.

04:38That's how it looks.

04:39Actually, this is perfect if you don't want to eat tamilok

04:45with vinegar.

04:48This is the perfect way to eat tamilok.

04:52You'll cook it and put it in an omelette.

04:55It's good for breakfast.

05:00Mmm.

05:09Hey!
