00:00Hello, KaWonderers! I'm now here in Bukidnon, the fruit basket of Mindanao.
00:08That's why the fruits here are unique, just like this one.
00:13Pineapple!
00:17In Bukidnon, you can find the largest pineapple plantation in the Philippines.
00:23The climate here is perfect for planting fruits.
00:26The fertile soil in the area is also a bonus.
00:30Currently, there are only 30,000 hectares of pineapples planted here.
00:35That's why Bukidnon's unique pineapple products stand out.
00:41One of them is Paula's Pineapple Delight,
00:43where you can buy unique pineapple products,
00:46such as pineapple vinegar, pineapple jam, and pineapple chili sauce.
00:52Is that allowed?
00:54Here in Bukidnon, when you go to Bukidnon,
00:58you won't be able to buy anything.
01:01Because when you go to Bohol, there's calamay.
01:05Or when you go to Davao, there are durian pastries, durian jams, and all.
01:11Here in Bukidnon, we don't have Pasalubong.
01:15So that's what I saw that I can do.
01:19But these pineapple products are not just sauces.
01:23They also mix it with food.
01:26Yes, Kawanderers, here we have Ms. Paula.
01:30She will teach us how to cook one of the most native dishes here in Bukidnon.
01:37Yes.
01:38Ms. Paula, what are our ingredients?
01:41The native dish here in Bukidnon,
01:44or what the nomads really eat when there's no food to buy,
01:48is our dakan.
01:50Dakan or taro.
01:51The gabi here just grows anywhere.
01:54So it's like food for the natives.
01:58Native dish with a twist.
02:00Ms. Pao, does this pineapple really go with the dish?
02:05Actually, no.
02:06But I added a twist to make it a little special.
02:10Wow.
02:11So we also have a little pork.
02:14It's really special.
02:15Pork.
02:16There.
02:17That's delicious.
02:18My dad is from Talaandig, and my mom is from Higaunon.
02:22This is always our dish when there's no food to buy.
02:26Gabi just grows anywhere.
02:29So that's it.
02:32Next, we'll add the star of this dish,
02:35the pineapple chili sauce.
02:38Dakan.
02:39And pineapple chunks.
02:41Ms. Paola, why did you choose to add pineapple?
02:45Because the sweetness of our pineapple here in Bukidnon,
02:48when you taste it, you'll know.
02:50Yes, I really need to taste it.
02:52I'm excited.
02:54And that's not all.
02:56We'll also add pineapple jam to make it more delicious.
03:02After a few minutes of boiling,
03:05Dakan is now cooked!
03:20It's delicious.
03:22One more.
03:23Do you eat pork?
03:24Yes.
03:25I eat it even with a spoon.
03:27It's like Bicol Express,
03:30It's like Bicol Express,
03:33which is like Bopis,
03:36Laeng.
03:37Laeng. Actually, it's Laeng.
03:38Laeng?
03:39Oh, I said it wrong.
03:42Laeng?
03:43Yes.
03:45That's Laeng?
03:46As in.
03:51One more.
03:52It's delicious here.
03:53I really love eating Laeng.
03:55Because Laeng,
03:56in Bulacan, we put susu.
03:58Susong Pilipit.
04:00Because of the unique product that Paula offered,
04:02her business flourished.
04:04Her products are available in different stores in Bukidnon.
04:08Life wasn't that good because of many challenges.
04:13I had a difficult childhood because of poverty.
04:17That's what pushed me to work hard in life.
04:22Paula's family recipe is pineapple jam.
04:25When she was still in college,
04:26she sold it to help her with her studies.
04:32She was a fine apple scholar.
04:34Now, she's a successful businesswoman.
04:37I want to pass it down to the next generation,
04:40to my children.
04:42My recipe,
04:43I hope, if God allows,
04:45that even though I'm not in the world anymore,
04:51I can still make it.
04:55I can still make it.
