Pangasinan comfort food: Dagupan Kaleskes

Image
Dagupan Kaleskes is a dish made out of cow or carabao meat and its internal organs in a hot, delicious, orange colored broth. The dish got its name from ' Kaleskes ' which is a Pangasinan word for intestines .  It is the annatto or achuete that gives the soup its distinct orange color and slightly nutty, earthy and delicately sweet flavor. But most of the yummy flavor comes from the beef and innards (some prefer to use carabeef as it is said to be more flavorful and cheaper than beef).  The meat is slow cooked in a big aluminum basin or casserole usually with charcoal in a brazier or kalan de uling/ ulingan (clay stove). This adds a different scent and flavor to the food. The coup de grace for a delectable Dagupan Kaleskes are the free sebo tan dala (fat and blood)! By the way, the broth is unlimited so you can ask for endless refill.   Kaleskes , a Pangasinan dish is similar to the Ilocano’s Sinanglao and Pinapaitan . It however does not have the

The July 16, 1990 Earthquake was a devastating episode for Dagupeños and other people affected by it. But it was also a time for resilience, community collaboration and positive will to rise from the crumbles of devastation. In effect, a new Dagupan was born. Here are images from that fateful day:  It has been 20 years. We, as a city should look back to not how painful and scary the July 16, 1990 earthquake was. Instead, we should remember the lessons learned, the sacrifices and the concerted efforts we made to uplift and make Dagupan great again. Are we now equipped and prepared to handle such emergencies? Can we minimize adverse effects in case (God forbid) such disaster happens again? Can we harness the spirit of genuine concern and voluntarism? Can we become one Dagupan again?
