PCEDO holds cooking workshop for small entrepreneurs in Pampanga
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO, Pampanga, March 2 (PIA) — The Provincial Cooperative and Entrepreneurial Development Office (PCEDO) has implemented an innovative training strategy to enhance the knowledge and skills of small entrepreneurs in the province.
PCEDO Head Mamerto Gatus disclosed that the provincial government sponsored a one-day cooking seminar-workshop for 20 small entrepreneurs coming from different barangays of Porac, Minalin, Lubao, Magalang, Guagua, Macabebe and Apalit with Kapampangan culinary expert Lilian Borromeo serving as facilitator.
Borromeo imparted her techniques in whipping up San Nicolas cookies, Gurguriang Kapampangan and Tejadang Kamatis, which are some of the old Kapampangan native delicacies she has been promoting to local and foreign tourists frequenting her family’s century old ancestral house in the town of Mexico.
“We must share our talents and skills in cooking old Kapampangan recipes unless we would want to be buried with them,” Borromeo told the participants.
The Pampanga-based chef encouraged the attendees to reinvent native delicacies, which are dying and to some degree have become non-existent like the “buldit silyo” of Minalin.
Borromeo shared that one of the top hits in her kitchen is the “Dulce Prenda” which is a sweet delicacy that she revived through the help of noted Kapampangan researcher-writer Erlie Mendoza.
Dulce Prenda, according to Mendoza’s research, was a product of the collaborations and contributions of the Kapampangans to the feast of La Naval held in Manila centuries ago.
The training was made more interesting as Borromeao added historical nuggets about the province during the Spanish period.
“Our ancestors would recite the Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory Be to estimate their cooking time as there were no timers yet then,” Borromeo shared.
Gatus added that the participants brought along samples of their homemade food products such as araro cookies, pastillas de leche and peanut butter for Borromeo’s comments and recommendations.
“Always make sure that your food products are healthy and sanitary and they should also be packaged properly to attract the buyers,” Borromeo advised the budding entrepreneurs. (WLB/CLJD-PIA 3 with reports from Erlinda Yutuc of Pampanga PIO)
