I've been craving tinumis since I got back from the Philippines a few weeks ago. I've had the perfect tinumis recipe ready for quite a while now but I had trouble finding chicken's blood anywhere. Good thing a colleague of mine knows someone who knows a butcher so I got my blood a few days ago and this is the result--the fulfillment of my week-long dream to eat tinumis!
I used only ground pork for this and chicken's blood instead of pork's blood. I don't know why but the idea of using pork's blood just icked me out more than chicken's blood.
Okay, so I sauteed the ground pork very well in lots of garlic and onions, once the pork was a bit brown I added the green peppers (the large kind) and some powdered sinigang mix, after that I added the chicken's blood..mixed it all up, added a little bit of vinegar, more sinigang mix and that was it!
Yum!
I'm a Novo Ecijano and I miss eating tinumis! My mom and aunts cook this only during fiesta and other special occasions. :)
