MY MINIATURE PHILIPPINE COOKWARE COLLECTION

Someone told me that I should also create a blog post about one of my interests, miniature items. So that the essence of my blog's name can be fulfilled. Now here it is :)

For my first entry about miniature, i decided to feature my Philippine Cookware collection because I got all of these with the money I earned (yes, my salary!).

Now, let me introduce each piece that I have.

By the way, I placed an apple (not real) to emphasize how small each replica is.

"KALDERO"

This is where Filipinos cook rice. Household name for this is "saingan".

"KASEROLA"

Where viands with soup or sauce are being cooked and stored. This is the common thing in Filipino Eateries or karinderya.

"KAWALI"

Used for frying and sauteing.

"TALYASI"

Wok for the Chinese. This is the larger version of Kawali. Commonly used during preparation for Filipino fiestas for large scale cooking for "handaan".

 "STEAMER"

As the name suggests, used for steaming like puto and leche flan.

"LIYANERA"

Molder for a dessert called Leche Flan

"BATYA"

As called by the manufacturer. This is where prepared ingredients are temporarily placed before cooking.

"SIYANSE AT SANDOK"

Siyanse (left), turner in English, is used for frying, paired with Kawali. Sandok (right) is laddle used for mixing ingredients being cooked.

"ULINGAN"

The Philippine version of stove. Charcoal or "uling", its root word, is used as the fuel or source of fire.

All definitions were searched in the internet. Any corrections are very welcome :)

Hope you liked my collection, the way that I do. Each pieces are uniquely cute and amazing in my eyes, sorry not sorry. :P
