Longganisa (or longanisa, or longaniza) are Filipino chorizos. These cured sausages are famous in almost every Philippine region. The famous varieties of longganisa are : Vigan , Lucban, and Guagua which were named according to the town that they came from. Pork is the most common meat used in making this sausage; Chicken, beef, and even tuna are sometimes used as alternatives.

Kuya saan naman ba nabibili yung ibang ingredients? Kung pangbahay lang bakit lalagyan pa ng ibat ibang chemicals. Di ba mas masarap kung natural… At saka ok lang ba kung mas mataba at malaki ang longanisa…di ba nakaka-apekto ang lasa nito sa size?
kuya ano po pede pampalit sa carrageenan

hi! thanks very much for posting this site. i like to cook and i can now compile these recipes and put them in the binder. i think it will be nice if i can have them in colored pix but…still thanks again. More Power!
sinubukan ko pong gawin ang recipe niyo kasi parang ang sarap kaso problema ko pambalut ko eh.eh layo ko naman sa pinas
steph, ok lang kahit walang pambalot. You can make skinless longganisa through this recipe. All you need is some wax paper to hold the meat.
maraming salamat po sa advice
Not a problem steph
kuya anong website pwedeng orderin yung mga ibang ingredients
ANO ang isolate?
Isolate or soy protein isolate is an emulsifier. This is a thickening ingredient added to change the physical composition of the meat.
crush na kita, promise!

I want to ask where i can buy the ingredients of longganisa and tocino? dont want to use the ready mix, i like ur recipe and i want to try it. please share! More power!
Can you feature how to prepare a casing for langonisa. Is it ok to use the intestine of lamb this is available in middle east. How to clean it. How about beef intestine?
Hi kuya,
Kindly let us know which prague powder to use… is it #1 or #2? I’m so excited to try this recipe.
All I know is, they’re different and cannot be interchanged.
By the way, for the others who are trying to find a place to buy this, kindly search your local grocery and ask for the following: (Prague Powder)
Curing Salt, Instacure, Modern Cure, Pink Curing Salt or Tinted Curing Mixture. These are the other names for the prague powder.

kuya san ko po pede bilhin po yug ingredients na
tbsp coarse salt
tsp phosphate
TVP (Textured Vegetable Protein)

ang sarap talagang kumain ng pag kaing pinoy lalo na kung nasa ibang bansa ka,malaki rin ang naiitutulong mo para sa akin at sa iba pang kababayan natin na nasa ibang bansa, sana wag kang mag sawa sa kababahagi sa amin ng mga kaalaman mo sa pagluluto ng pag kain pinoy,para sa katulad kong di nakakapagluto ng pagkain sa bayan natin, dito na lang ako natuto sa kapapanood sa iyo..may hihilingin lang sana ako kung maari na padalhan mo naman ako ng video kung papaano gumawa ng langgonisa at tocino..maraming salamat.
kuya salamat po sa tocino mo pero kuya kung hindi ko lagyan ng phosphate hindi ba sya madaling masira kung alisin ko ang phosphate and prange powder ok lang mga bata kasi karamihan kakain pls reply
Hi PP,
I tried your longanisa recipe with some missing ingredients, LOL. And it still tasted good. I found the TVP, phosphate and prague powder online, but have yet to get me some isolate and carageenan. I’ve made Sweet Chorizo with casings using Burnt Lumpia’s recipe, modified to a Cebuano’s taste, of course. Once I’ve got all the ingredients, I will definitely try this one again. Let’s have a Pinoy cook-off when we’re in Chicago. Got a lot of ravenous friends there that will not say no to Pinoy cookin’
Thanks.
Maria, mas gusto mo ba mas malaki na longanisa? Sa tingin ko walang pagbabago sa lasa kapag malaki o maliit dahil isang paraan lang naman ang paggawa nito at depende na sa paghulma mo kung malaki o maliit.
Maria, I usually order the ingredients online. Yup, kung pang sariling consumption lang, you may ignore the phosphate , carrageenan, and prague powder.
I’m not sure kung saan sa Pinas nakakabili ng mga ingredients. Baka po merong may alam kung saan, kindly inform us please. Thank you.
Longa pa in ba pinaguusapan nyo? Gusto ko yung sa mcdo, masarap yung skinless.
Salamat Kuya sa response. Pwede bang mag-request sana magpost ka naman ng panghimagas kasi lahat na yata ng recipes mo dito nasubukan ko na. Nauumay na ako sa ulam..gusto ko naman yung may matamis na dessert. Sa totoo lang etong blogspot mo ang pinaka madali na tutoral kitchen lesson online. Feeling ko tuloy chef na chef na ako. More Power Kuya!
Henrik, its finely chopped pork with seasonings and preservatives. Longganisa is a Filipino sausage similar to Bratwurst.
It is wrapped in pig’s intestine (thanks Jovita…missed that one).
I think it’s wrapped in pig intestine (bituka ng baboy), which is usually the case.
Thanks for the recipe
Thank you nora, glad that you liked it.
was able to get that from amazon.com before
Where do you usually buy your ingredients online? if you dont mind me asking…
