March 22, 2017 No comments Article

It’s been a while since I was at the Philippine Senate.  Yes, for 15 months way back in 2007, I worked as the Writers and Media Group Head of a Philippine Senator.  It was in his office where I found that my calling in life must revolve around health and the environment.  Yes, I loved working there – writing press releases, speeches, and even columns plus organizing press event.

Peppermint Tea

I just got home from a raw food lecture and demonstration at Manila Tytana Colleges (formerly Manila Doctors College).

Feeling a bit tired but I know exactly what I needed.  I went to the kitchen and got myself some dried peppermint leaves (I dried them myself), warmed some water, and I’m set for a relaxing afternoon.

Thought you might want try them and have a relaxing Raw Food Tuesday tea.

How to make this tea…

Unsoy-Pear Salad

January 20, 2015 No comments Article

I’d been spending holidays in my hometown.  I call it my “super extended vacation”.  I stayed in Cavite from December 24 until January 9, went back to the city to teach a Saturday yoga class but as soon as I found out that January 17 is holiday, I packed my bag and was back home on January 14 for an extended Christmas vacation.

One thing I love about being in Indang, Cavite is I get to find vegetables that are never available in Quezon City.  One such vegetable is unsoy.  I asked my aunt for its English name and she said it’s coriander.  Still it’s different from the coriander that I find in Quezon City.  They smell the same but coriander has bigger leaves while unsoy has very thin leaves, more like pine trees, and they taste different too.  I love unsoy better.

I’ve always loved eating unsoy salad.  Normally, we eat it with onions and tomatoes.  Since, I couldn’t find tomatoes, I had to make do with left over fruits (the 12 +1 round fruits) from New Year.

So, here’s the recipe for this Unsoy-Pear Salad:
