VICTORIAS FOODS RECIPE : Bangus Bruschetta

I can still vividly remember how deliciously satisfying at the same time visually appealing our food tasting session with Victorias Foods Corporation last March.


Created for its "A Taste of Negros" campaign, we savored three deliciously concocted recipes made with the VFC best-sellers - Hot Sardines in Soya Oil and Spanish-style Bangus, as well as the specialties of Punot Restaurant.

Among the stand-outs was Bangus Bruschetta which was the ultimate visual delight. Beautifully plated, every angle comes out with the dish as photogenic as it can be.

It consisted of toasted bread and topped with tomatoes and VFC Bangus in Soya Oil. A perfect fusion of international and local ways of cooking and ingredients.


Chef Tope Arañador, the young and contemporary Ilonggo chef/owner of PUNOT Restaurant has partnered with Victorias Foods Corporation in creating special recipes.

With this collab, VFC and Chef Tope has created 15 recipes using Victorias Foods signature products and best-sellers.



And here's how Chef Tope created this gastronomic masterpiece using Victorias Spanish-style Bangus in Soya Oil.

Ingredients

  • 2 cans Victorias Hot Bangus in Soya Oil, drained
  • 1 Tbsp Soya oil (from above)
  • 1 clove Garlic
  • 1 Tbsp Lemon juice, adjust if needed
  • 1 pinch Paprika, sweet smoked
  • 4 pcs Pimiento (from a jar/can), drained
  • 1/2 tsp freshly-cracked Pepper
  • 1 tsp chopped Parsley
  • 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Slices of baguette or any bread, freshly toasted

Procedure

  1. Place Victorias Hot Bangus in a bowl. You may remove the fishbones if necessary but it's edible.
  2. Add pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, soya oil, garlic, paprika and parsley. Mix or toss very well but carefully do it to keep the bangus intact.
  3. To serve, brush some olive oil or Bangus oil on top of the baguette/toast then place pimiento slices on top of baguette then placed the seasoned Bangus on top.
  4. You may add some more bangus oil and sprinkle some more paprika on top.

Enjoy this delectable savory hors d'oeuvres the way you want it - whenever, wherever.
