Lathalain: Masarap at masustansiyang lutuing
butong-gulay
Ni Marilou R. Galang
Mahilig ba kayong kumain ng munggo?
Ang munggo ay isa lamang sa mga tinatawag na tuyong
butong-gulay.
Ang iba pang halimbawa ng butong-gulay ay
garbanzos, patani, paayap, kadyos, abitsuwelas, at bataw.
Ang mga ito ay karaniwang mabibili sa palengke,
supermarket, sari-sari store o maaari ding itanim sa paligid-bahay.
Maaaring gawing pamalit sa karne, isda o manok ang
butong-gulay dahil ito ay mura, masustansiya at sagana sa protina. Bukod sa
protina na tagapag-buo ng katawan, ito ay mayaman din sa yero o iron, kalsyum,
posporus at bitamina B.
Iluto at ihain ang butong-gulay bilang pang-ulam,
pang-himagas, pang-miryenda at pagkain ng bata.
Ang mga sumusunod ay ilan sa mga lutuing may
sangkap na butong-gulay:
Patties (Butong-gulay)
2 tasanag linagang butong-gulay, linigis
1 itlog, binati
1 kutsarang asin
tinapay na tostado (biskotso), dinikdik nang pino
2 kutsarang mantika
Ihalo ang butong-gulay sa itlog at lagyan ng asin
upang magkalasa. Bilugin ng palapad (8 maliliit o 4 na malalaking patties) at
ipagulong ang bawa’t isa sa dinikdik na tostadong tinapay. Lutuin hanggang
maging brown ang magkabilang bahagi sa mainit na minantikaang kawali. Walong
(8) dulot.
Ginataang Butong Paayap
1 kutsarang mantika 6 tasang
tuyong paayap, linaga
1 kutsaritang bawang, pinitpit 2 tasang gata ng niyog
¼ sibuyas, hiniwa asin at
paminta, pampalasa
1 tasang kamatis, hiniwa 2 tasang talbos ng
kamote
¼ tasang baboy o hinimay na isda
Igisa ang bawang, sibuyas at kamatis. Idagdag ang
baboy o hinimay na isda at pakuluan ang paayap. Idagdag ang gata ng niyog na
may asin at paminta. Pakuluin at idagdag ang talbos ng kamote. Takpan at iluto
ng 2 minuto. Ihain ng mainit.
Toge-Munggo Delight
1 tasang munggo, linaga at minasa
3 tasang toge
1 tasang mantika
1 tasang asukal

Lathalain: Magtamo ng higit na pakinabang sa inyong
piso
Ni Marilou R. Galang
Ngayong panahon na tumataas ang presyo ng halos
lahat ng bilihin, kasama na dito ang pagkain, hindi nakapagtataka kung nanaisin
ng bawa’t mamimili na makamtan ang higit na pakinabang sa perang kanilang
kinikita.
Sa inyong mga maybahay na sa kasama sa arawang
gawain ang pamimili ng pagkain, narito ang ilang gabay para magtamo ng higit na
pakinabang sa inyong salapi:
* Ilista ang lahat ng kailangang bilhin bago
magtungo sa pamilihan upang maiwasan
ang pagbili ng mga bagay na hindi kailangan.
* Gamitin ang “Gabay ng Wastong Pagkain” o basic
food groups araw-araw. Pumili sa bawa’t pangkat ng mga pagkaing mura at
napapanahon.
** Ang tinuyong isda o
butong-gulay ay maaaring pamalit sa karne.
** Sa mga madahon at
dilaw na gulay ay makakakuha ng higit na
pro-vitamin A.
** Ang maliliit na isda
tulad ng tagunton, alamang at dilis, ay mura
nguni’t nagtataglay
ng protina na kauri ng matatagpuan sa
malalaking isda.
** Makapagtitipid kayo
sa pamamagitan ng paghain ng one-dish
meals tulad ng
sinigang, linaga, tinola at ginisang munggo.
*
Paghambingin ang uri, bilang at halaga ng mga bilihin sa mga tindahan
bago mamili.
*
Alamin ang mga katangian ng mga sariwang pagkain upang makatiyak
na may mataas na uri ang inyong bibilhin.
*
Maging matalino din sa pagpili. Sa ganitong paraan din ninyo matitiyak
na mataas na uri ang inyong bibilhin.
