00:00Here in Barangay Valencia, in the province of Bukidnon,
00:04Ms. Leticia has a saying.
00:08When you are hit by a rock,
00:10you should hit it with...
00:13Tinolang Bato?
00:18As the light of the house,
00:19her dream for her family is to give them a good life.
00:26And to feed them three times a day.
00:31It's a good thing that there is a nearby river in their area
00:36where they can get a free taste of their Tinola.
00:46The rocks of Laligan River.
00:51Before raising your eyebrows, don't be judgmental.
00:56Because these rocks are important to them.
01:01She is the one who takes care of the children
01:03while her husband is the breadwinner.
01:07My husband's job is to be a breadwinner and a vlogger.
01:09He earns around P3,000 a month.
01:11Our budget is not enough because we don't have money to sell bread.
01:16We are poor because we don't have any income.
01:20They all go to school.
01:22So no matter what they do,
01:24they can only discard what they can eat.
01:28Tinolang Bato was not invented by them.
01:32It was made by the grandparents of her husband.
01:39When they moved to their area,
01:41they reached a point where they have no income.
01:47So they looked for food,
01:48the debris that is attached to the rocks.
01:51This is the rock.
01:53This is the rock.
01:54Tinolang Bato now.
01:55Tinolang Bato now.
01:56Until it was passed and the lockdown was repeated.
02:02Because they can't go out to buy food,
02:04they made a dish, Bato.
02:09This is what happens here.
02:11What we can eat is just the soup.
02:14But at first, she couldn't help but wonder.
02:18Why does she cook Bato?
02:19Bato is hard.
02:22In China,
02:23stir-fried stone street food is also popular.
02:28Where the stones called soju are sauteed in garlic and chili oil.
02:34This dish was invented in the early days
02:37by fishermen in Hubei province.
02:40When they run out of food
02:41and they are stranded in the middle of the Yangtze River,
02:45this is what they do to get by.
02:49But even this Bato.
02:50The one I'm tasting is delicious.
02:55Bato!
03:01They will accompany us in getting Bato in the river.
03:08When it comes to the river,
03:09each one gets their own Bato.
03:12The goal here is to get a Bato that has mud.
03:16Let's get the mud.
03:18Let's get the mud because this is the delicious one.
03:22Here.
03:23Bring this to taste.
03:25Mud.
03:28When it is cooked and sautéed,
03:31its mud will taste good.
03:33And it feels like you're eating seafood,
03:35Tinola.
03:38And of course,
03:39Tinola cannot be made without ingredients.
03:41In addition,
03:42it is also free to get by Mrs. Leticia.
03:45Sampalok,
03:47tomatoes,
03:48kamote leaves,
03:49onion leaves,
03:51sangib or lemon basil,
03:53and tanglad.
03:55I wonder,
03:56is it really safe to eat the mud that sticks to the Bato?
04:03There is no danger or danger
04:05that the Bato will get in cooking.
04:10The important thing is to make sure that it is clean
04:13before eating it.
04:15We get a lot of nutrients
04:17like antioxidants and anti-inflammatories.
04:24She will boil it
04:25so that the taste will come out from the mud.
04:28The Bato and the fish have the same taste.
04:31We did not catch the fish in the river.
04:34We just get the Bato.
04:37When it is boiling,
04:38add the other ingredients.
04:43Ah!
04:44Delicious!
04:47Kakawander presenting,
04:49Tinolang Bato.
04:59Mmm!
05:01Ah!
05:02It's delicious!
05:03If we cut it,
05:04no one will be able to find it.
05:05Just like the Bato.
05:08Tinolang Bato.
05:10Tinolang Bato.
05:11Tinolang Bato is delicious,
05:13just like Tinolang Isda.
05:16What is important for Ms. Leticia,
05:19We eat together and we are happy.
05:21Even if it is just Bato,
05:22we are full.
05:41Tinolang Bato.
05:43Tinolang Bato.
