00:00This is the queso wrap for our breakfast this morning.
00:03Pandesal and queso puti, a classic combination.
00:06This is so good!
00:08And it's paired with a hot cup of coffee.
00:12It's a beautiful start to the day.
00:14Oh yes, but did you know that queso puti can also be served as a side dish?
00:17Chef JR has a queso wrap recipe for our loved ones in Santa Cruz, Laguna
00:23who are celebrating the queso puti festival.
00:26I saw them earlier.
00:28Jenzel is also part of the celebration.
00:31So Chef, how delicious is the queso puti?
00:35Hi guys!
00:36Your festival is so beautiful!
00:38I'm so happy.
00:39The colors are beautiful.
00:44A blessed morning to all of you!
00:47The queso puti is so delicious.
00:49There's nothing like it.
00:50The creamy, salty, and perfect texture.
00:53This is a real treat for us.
00:55That's why we're here in Santa Cruz, Laguna
00:59where the queso puti festival is our joy.
01:02And of course, we're here with a beautiful queen
01:06a certified Lagunese.
01:08Jenzel!
01:10Good morning!
01:12We're having breakfast here at Santa Cruz
01:15at Pandesal with queso puti.
01:18I really missed this.
01:20My siblings and I used to study here when we were kids.
01:23When we were kids, we used to buy queso puti
01:26as a filling for our bread.
01:28That's why we really enjoy eating here.
01:31And as you know,
01:33they've been making queso puti
01:35for more than 400 years here in Santa Cruz.
01:37That's why they're called
01:39the home of queso puti.
01:41And you can buy this queso puti
01:43for only P160 pesos.
01:45It has two fillings.
01:47That's why it's so worth it.
01:49Isn't it delicious?
01:51And of course, aside from the filling for pandesal,
01:53you can also add this to putahe
01:55like tilapia.
01:57Here we have tilapia string rolls
01:59with queso puti dip.
02:01And of course, we also have tilapia deep fried wonton
02:03in mayo and queso puti dip.
02:05Chef Tina Agregado made that.
02:07And of course, if there's a queso puti
02:09made by them,
02:11Chef JR won't be defeated.
02:13Chef, what putahe do we have here with queso puti?
02:15Hi, this is Reina Jenzel
02:17of our queso puti.
02:19Today, we're going to make
02:21an eggplant torta
02:23with queso puti.
02:25Like what Jenzel said,
02:27these are mostly partners
02:29or mixed together.
02:31In other savory dishes,
02:33we can also do this.
02:35You can boil or grill
02:37the eggplant torta.
02:39Then, we'll remove the skin.
02:41But remember,
02:43when you season this,
02:45the queso puti should be on the salty side.
02:47That's what we'll add.
02:49We also added oyster sauce.
02:51Let's add a bit.
02:53And then, our hot pan is ready.
02:57We'll just spread it.
02:59Since it's an eggplant torta,
03:01at this point,
03:03we're just cooking the egg.
03:05So, we'll just add a bit
03:07of queso puti
03:09on top.
03:11There.
03:13Are you okay with that?
03:15Which I'm sure,
03:17this is something that we can apply
03:19with other savory dishes.
03:21Like grinding.
03:23That's totally fine.
03:25After that,
03:27maybe we'll toast the bottom.
03:29We'll just flip it.
03:31There.
03:33It's so good to flip
03:35an eggplant torta here in Santa Cruz.
03:37Is there anyone cheering?
03:39It's just a flip.
03:41Especially when we're
03:43toasting them.
03:45It's that easy.
03:47Like we said, we're just
03:49cooking the egg.
03:51If you want it to be more toasted,
03:53you can cook it.
03:55And for garnish, we're just going to add
03:57some queso puti on top of our tomatoes.
04:01That's the garnish.
04:03Let's put it.
04:05It's that simple.
04:07For a touch of green, we have parsley here.
04:09And I'm sure our
04:11egg torta here in Santa Cruz is ready.
04:13Let's taste it.
04:15There.
04:17Here.
04:19There.
04:21They have their own samples.
04:23Let's taste it.
04:25How is it, ma'am?
04:27It's so good.
04:29Especially with the queso puti.
04:31We're going to have a feast.
04:33It's so good.
04:35The queso puti is so good.
04:37It's so good.
04:39I'm going to taste the big one.
04:41It's hot.
04:43It's hot.
04:45Be careful.
04:51It's hot.
04:53It tastes different
04:55with the queso puti toppings.
04:57There's a hint of creaminess.
04:59Yes.
05:01Is Santa Cruz, Laguna a pass?
05:03Yes!
05:05And of course,
05:07we're going to have a feast.
05:09And of course,
05:11their memories with the queso puti.
05:13Here are the people
05:15who make the queso puti.
05:17Sir and ma'am.
05:19Sir, you've been doing this for a long time, right?
05:21Yes.
05:23How long have you been doing this?
05:25Since 1975.
05:27Oh, since 1975.
05:29So Santa Cruz, Laguna
05:31is a pass for the queso puti.
05:33And even in other places,
05:35they still remember the queso puti.
05:39And of course,
05:41our recipe is not yet finished.
05:43But that's not the end of our fun
05:45here at the queso puti festival.
05:47Because I'm not the only one who's going to ramp.
05:49We're not the only ones who are going to ramp.
05:51Because the calabaos are going to ramp
05:53with us later.
05:55Yes, they're going to be colorful.
05:57They're not the only energetic people here.
05:59But the colorful
06:01calabaos with their own costumes.
06:03There's even makeup here.
06:05That's what we're going to show you later.
06:07So, calabaos,
06:09focus on your country's morning show
06:11where you always come first.
06:13Unang Hire!
06:19These are the calabaos
06:21who are going to be the stars of Santa Cruz, Laguna
06:23for their queso puti festival.
06:25They're ready to ramp.
06:27Chef JR and Jenzel,
06:29let's have a look at the calabaos.
06:31Jenzel is going to wear the costume
06:33that he wore earlier.
06:35Jenzel's costume is beautiful.
06:37Yes!
06:39We're here at the queso puti festival
06:41here in Santa Cruz, Laguna.
06:43And, Kapuso, did you know
06:45that they've been making
06:47queso puti here for four centuries?
06:49That's why
06:51they're called the home of queso puti.
06:53Yes.
06:55Of course,
06:57queso puti is made from the milk of the calabaos.
06:59And speaking of calabaos,
07:01we have some calabaos here
07:03who are ramping up
07:05the queso puti festival.
07:07That's right.
07:09We're here with their municipal agriculturist,
07:11Ma'am Edith Tobias.
07:13Ma'am, how do you choose the calabaos?
07:17Of course,
07:19the calabaos
07:21need to have a good physical appearance,
07:23to be healthy,
07:25and they need to be
07:27fed with milk.
07:29So, all of them
07:31should be able to produce milk.
07:33That's why most of the calabaos
07:35are female.
07:37Alright.
07:39Thank you so much, Ma'am.
07:41Our contestants are ready.
07:43Let's show our contestant number one,
07:45our calabao.
07:49Wearing intricate details
07:51of sile and talong,
07:53this is Efren
07:55and her calabao,
07:57Angelica,
07:59two years old.
08:01For our contestant number two,
08:03the owner of Enrique,
08:05Calabao Tisay,
08:07is the winner.
08:09Enrique is still in the lead.
08:11Yes.
08:13Tisay is surprised.
08:15Yes.
08:17But, Chef,
08:19my blush is more intense.
08:21Yes, Tisay has a blush.
08:23And here's Sir Rogelio
08:25with Etie,
08:27her five-year-old calabao.
08:29Sir Rogelio is also giving it his all.
08:31That's our contestant number four.
08:33Our next contestant.
08:35Felix and Dora are five years old.
08:37But, they are still energetic
08:39because they can still walk fast.
08:41Yes, and they are also energetic.
08:43The owner and their calabao.
08:45Here's Adjo
08:47with Angelina.
08:49Yes, and of course,

08:57Yes.
08:59Their companions are cute.
09:01They have different activities
09:03in Laguna.
09:05Yes, I think it's one of the products
09:07they want to promote.
09:09And finally,
09:11our last contestant,
09:13the owner is Feliciano
09:15with his calabao, Michael.
09:17That's a four-year-old.
09:19I like the pink color on him.
09:21It's like he needs hot water
09:23from his thermos.
09:25And when you're farming,
09:27you're with your partner.
09:29Although the weather is hot sometimes,
09:31the coffee is still hot.
09:33You need to wake them up early,
09:35especially when they're just starting
09:37to walk.
09:39Until when?
09:41One more ramp.
09:43Yes, one more ramp for our calabao.
09:45Calabao?
09:47That's what we call it.
09:49For those who are planning to visit
09:51their Quezon Putih Festival,
09:53Our festival is until Saturday.
09:55But for those who are planning to visit
09:57their calabao ramp,
09:59they can visit it later in the afternoon.
10:01Their ramps will start.
10:03And of course, they do this yearly.
10:05Yes, and I think this is the first time
10:07that this has been included in the
10:09Quezon Putih Festival.
10:11Yes, this is the first time.
