00:00If a lot of people are complaining about the intense sunlight,
00:04compare it to our wonderful friends, Mirasol and Remiline,
00:08who are still looking for where the hottest power of the sun is located.
00:13The sun is their main source of energy,
00:17a kind of seaweed that grows from November to March.
00:23If Japan is a minority, we have an answer for that.
00:28It is often used in salads and other Ilocano dishes.
00:37What we use is red algae seaweed.
00:41Ever since they saw the strong impact of the waves on the rocks,
00:47they left some algae,
00:50and they know that those algae can be eaten, edible.
00:55So they harvest as much as they can, as much as they can.
01:07Even if it is a life-threatening situation,
01:13the women of Barangay Sawit in Burgos, Ilocos Norte are working hard to get equipment.
01:21When I learned how to get equipment, I was already 10 years old.
01:26My parents are also like that.
01:30They also help me to get equipment.
01:35Because of the strong waves and rocks,
01:38a lot of people are put in danger.
01:40It is very dangerous.
01:43As you can see, we have a lot of reefs here.
01:47The seaweed grows right on the rocks.
01:50They go to the rocks and the waves are strong.
01:54It is a real disgrace.
01:58One of the parents of Remiline in Sinawimpalad
02:01was hit by a wave 10 years ago.
02:04They are already harvesting.
02:06My mother didn't know that the waves were coming.
02:10My father said,
02:12My mother didn't know that the waves were coming.
02:14My father said,
02:15My mother didn't know that the waves were coming.
02:17My mother didn't know that the waves were coming.
02:21When the rocks run out,
02:23the women's equipment is directly sold.
02:27After a whole day of selling,
02:30they will sell the dried equipment for 60 pesos each.
02:35And it can reach 1,500 pesos each.
02:40With the help of the Department of Science and Technology,
02:43they were able to make gourmet salt or asin using the equipment.
02:47In this project,
02:49what we are able to help is that you are not only making salt,
02:52but you are also harvesting equipment.
02:58Is food more delicious when using equipment?
03:01Salt, instead of ordinary salt?
03:04That's why Chef Harvey and I will be cooking
03:06Valentin's Kitchen's two versions of Pinakbet Pizza.
03:20Mga Pawan, I will now make Pinakbet Pizza using salt.
03:37I wonder, will our wonderers be able to taste the difference in taste?
03:47The Pinakbet Pizza I made using equipment is more delicious compared to the other one.
03:55The saltiness of using equipment is more delicious compared to the other one.
04:01The hardship of finding equipment is worth it.
