Ilokano Comfort Soup Lauya with Erwan Heussaff

[@ReynaSpeaks]

I am Ilocano from Hawaii (there is a huge Ilocano population in the western US (especially in Hawaii) and it’s done differently as well. They use white vinegar for the broth and use cabbage and potatoes along with the General aromatics. I’ve had some family members make it with Sitaw. But this, I definitely need to try!

[@faysun9147]

Just discovered you, I’m a Filipino who has lived in the USA for over 50 years, currently in California. Have to say your channel content is one of the best I’ve watched on social media. Thank you and more power to you! Love your narrative specially and admire your culinary passion.

[@mirri97]

I’m from the north and we never put tomatoes in our Lauya. Just braised pork or beef knuckles in black pepper and garlic, then we add the cabbage and potatoes. Salt and pepper to taste, some would also add some green chili peppers.

[@philipmarcos5934]

Lauya is cooked with ginger, some add sweet potatos or kamote to make d soup sweeter. Yan po ang difference ng lauya sa nilaga.

[@mirri97]

@@philipmarcos5934 Yes! Ilokano Lauya is basically nilaga, aside from the usual pork knuckles that we use. I heard recently that some southern version of Lauya requires some ingredients I haven’t heard of. Just like the most recent Pinas Sarap Parañaque version.

[@jjagoral5516]

My ultimate fave food growing up is Lauyang Baka...I am not Ilokano but we, bisaya also cook Lauya and our fave is Lauyang Baka

[@arielreuben1908]

I have loved Lauya cooked by my uncle when i was kid. I remember it had lots of onion and a hint of ginger and peppercorn taste... now that i'm here in Spain i believe this ilocano dish came the words "la olla" which means the Pot where soups are basically cooked.

[@rhea3109]

Im from Ilocos Norte, pero sa amin walang tomatoes ang lauya, only bawang, bay leaf, paminta, vinegar, tapos ung repolyo lang po✌️

[@CruzR1111]

YUM. Before I even watched vid I saved it to cook playlist! I cook a beef & tomato sopas using beef ribs, tomatoes and my mums secret ingredient…chicken salt. What Aussies put in their chips/fries all the time. It’s bloody delicious which is weird cause my mum is a terrible cook and I’ve never found it anywhere else Lee not even google. To amp up the flavour I also use a crockpot, beef stock, patis, maggi and a lot of tomato paste (for major umami) in addition to the beef ribs and tomatoes and it is just incredibly scrumptious and addictive. The marrow and fat from the bones makes you want more and more. Has anyone ever heard of a beef sopas with tomatoes and no milk before ? Excited to try this when I return from Bali. Thank you for this recipe and series I have a little bit of Ilocano ancestry but know very little about it. ❤

[@PotreyC]

The best! Lalo na kapag may kasalan, hindi nawawala ang lauya. 😍

[@missdi4168]

This version is an interesting one that I wanna try. It is quite different from the Ilocos Sur's Lauya, of which I grew up with. Vinegar and black pepper are staple flavour of the soup. Btw, I love these vlogs where u guys feature food from different provinces. Hope to see more🙌🏻

[@xofmetleh6618]

Your from ilocos sur? Some people here also my family we use tomatoes. Is like the pochero but have more broth

[@lmacabuag]

Lauya reminds me a lot of my late paternal grandmother, a native of Parañaque. Her version of Lauya is also different from this. The highlight of the lauya I know is the sawsawan, which is vinegar with boiled eggplant and lots of fresh garlic. Add chilies if you're into spicy foods. It's really interesting to know the different versions of the same food. Good job FEATR.

[@jaames]

As someone who grew up in Paranaque I was absolutely shocked that Lauya isn't native to Paranaque and that there are other versions too! And yes, the version I know also has a super great sour garlicky eggplant dipping sauce. Damn, now I'm hungry!

[@wilmacayabyab7727]

I have this recipe you described in one of my cookbooks, but it's called Pochero not Lauya✌️

[@xofmetleh6618]

Ilokanos love to put tomatoes in our local dishes.

[@jeannydean5839]

My mother's version is to smoke the pork hock from native pig for hours until the skin is a bit roasted or burnt, then boil it with ginger, onion and garlic with papaya or sayote; or boil it then saute tomatoes, garlic and onions then add monggo and ampalaya leaves.

[@glenzybi8230]

My uncles used to cooked lauya with pig head and pig legs,they cooked it during fiestas,seasoned with sukang iloco,instead of tomato,and with green papaya as well cabbage with lots of native garlic from Ilocos sur.

[@MobaPambihira]

My favorite dish! I cook that every once in a while for my family.😊 But we put lots of veggies. Cabbage, Saging na saba, Petchay and Baguio beans. Masarap sa Lauya pag beef!😋 And for coloring we use atsuete. We don’t use tomatoes. Super delicious! It’s like nilaga but a little sweet coz I add sugar and aromatic because of Ginger. 😋 That’s how we make Lauya in Rizal. I learned that from my lola.

[@user-li8uo7cx1g]

May kamote po ba yun🙄🙄

[@beanie.solfeggio]

lauya is one of the best dishes i have ever tasted. thank you for the recipe

[@tjbarungan7318]

my Mother cooks the best dinengdeng, pinakbet, buridibud, and langka salad. it's a pleasure when there's an opp to feature. :)

[@mindyu2146]

Lauya in ilonggo are bony broth with a little bit of sourness from batuan instead of tomato but to each his own😅 can be with other veggies like jackfruit and sweetness and aroma a special leaf known as libas..hopefully you’ll be able to taste it as well 😅

[@charenbless1323]

I am planning to go to Ilocos very soon and try their local food there. I definitely try lauya to compare how it's different from my region. 😅

[@edr.2642]

Ilocano dishes are so underrated.

[@manculture6905]

UNDERRATED LIKE THE CHANNEL TSK

[@phatsmurf575]

My kind of home cooking that was a staple at our house. Thanks for featuring my home town👍

[@wasab1tch]

You can also try putting Taro (gabi) in your lauya the Ilokano way to make the soup thicker and the combination of it with lots of tomato is heavenly!

[@mirri97]

We put taro if we’re cooking Sinigang, together with some souring agents like sampalok.

[@stephendadiz5692]

Sinigang nkwan aa maam hehehe

[@monalizzalaron4284]

Yum! Or kamoteng kahoy which is a common addition to goat lauya here in La Union.

[@janiceromero9953]

My dad first grilled the whole pork legs just to infuse some of the oil before the actual boiling and adding ingredients ☺

[@pattynobles7745]

I like my lauya with taro and cabbagge cabbage..😍😁

[@anasianemo]

I have ancestry from Ilocos and Visayas but am from the Manila area and just wish these specific dishes were available there too. Sure it’s fun to travel and experience it locally, but I can’t afford that all the time

[@carpartspro]

I believe The red color in "dawangs" lauya actually comes from banana ketchup, but then in cooking there's is no right or wrong, what matters is the love put into the dish

[@mielflores4340]

I’ve watched this before but I’ve noticed how you word it. You just like it like the way you cook it without the cabbage which is “beautiful and naked” 😌 cue sexy music and jiggly pork hock in slow motion. Kudos to the director 🎉

[@jonathansavella9629]

Thank you very much for featuring our ilokano dish LAUYA - proud ilokano here

[@juvilinoalamis]

Bisaya version of Lauya is different. No tomatoes. More like KBL of ilonggo. Bohol also have Lauja, much like adobo from boney parts of pork. Skl

[@valbenedictiimedina9413]

It actually varies in different municipalities here in Ilocos. Some don’t have tomatoes, some only a hint that it never colors the soup, and some have many of it. Much like any other dishes. Probably because of the varying abundance or ingredients or lack thereof per town.

[@ninap1998]

ERWAN KEEP DOING THIS CONTENTS THE WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW HOW VIBRANT FILIPINO CUISINE IS , your documentaries/content deserves NCCA level of awards!! or more than that😊

[@mariaanagarvida6973]

My grandmom lauya is with vinegar,black pepper and young papaya.

[@arcelee6546]

I’m from Ilocos Norte but my mom’s lauya has no tomatoes. Only vinegar, pepper corn, bayleaf and garlic. For the vegetables she added taro root,papaya or repolyo.

[@ATC_Radio]

#WeTheNorth would like to thank you for discovering and featuring our local cuisine in Ilocos. I'm so happy that a chef in your caliber has come through for our local dishes. THANK YOU chef Erwan. Your passion has brought you to try the very much underated Ilocano dishes, which hopefully will make its mark to the world. Agbiag ti FEATR!

[@larmaandres4617]

[@winmar2623]

[@angietiu6184]

[@featrmedia]

[@tweetae]

[@MariaJose-ux3tl]

[@snowrage3096]

LAUYA is a Easter Sunday dish as far as i can remember in Iligan City,Mindanao..With Luy-a , Lemongrass,Gabi(Taro)..

[@jonbonaxl233]

Very easy lang kasi yung lauya, and it has like a motherly touch especially if you have fever, itatanong lang sakin ng nanay ko kung gusto ko ng lauya

[@mjbarien]

I remember whenever there is santol in abundance, our lola would put in some in her lauya. It would taste really really good. Gosh, I miss her so much, and it's her birthday today as well (Feb 14) 🥹

[@marjoriemanaois5822]

[@stephendadiz5692]

[@disguisedporo1300]

[@mimiyoj8159]

Lauya!!!!! My favorite! 😍😍😍

[@tsitnedance]

Was it really that easy? I love tomatoes! I'mma try this recipe on my day off 😍

[@mosesjeromelazaro2841]

all praises from my end FEAT'R Team. i just hope the content you guys put out does not stop from just putting it out there. I know it's asking a lot. maybe in the future share details on how to help those people retain their heritage by means of donations or buy their products etc. kasi sayang. these skills are no longer in practice. the common thread I see in the interviews are that the younger generation no longer want to learn all these things. totally understandable. they see their elders having to do this for long periods of time and yield small results. they want a future with little less effort but reap bigger rewards. if there are ways to encourage the generation of today - point them in the right resources that would help. I'm already jaded but there might still be hope the 90's-00's-2010-s generation

[@anassawolveshappydoggos5506]

you should do a foodocumentary about diff. kinds of lauya around the country and let me introduce our version here in Capiz. we use palm hearts, commonly coconut and buri/buli. each has it's distinct flavor. hope you can consider the thought, thanks...

[@see_rencio]

Sarap!

Hi @featrmedia. This is just a suggestion if you're willing to make this content: Dishes that Filipinos invented to survive during World War II

[@divinemercyisforall6984]

put sayote and this dish will taste even better 🤗

[@mgshobbies23]

Just watching Erwan pour that hot soup on that very tender pork is heaven! Yum yum! 😋

[@charlesmorisloa8200]

Laoya/Lauya varies per region. Growing up with "luya/lauya" was the focus for the Cagayan (Region 2) version. Food is fun and adventurous.

[@wowmawc]

im gonna copy this but I will saute the aromatics first and probably cook the tomato paste too before adding any liquid and the pork.

[@honeyme1975]

[@ginabelisario9282]

Lauya maysa nga kaimbagan a digo..

[@michaelp.7694]
