Home-made Gourmet Tuyo in Olive Oil & Chili

Have you ever heard about gourmet “tuyo”? Well, if you are a Pinoy like me I’m pretty sure that you have an idea what “tuyo” is all bout.  But for those who didn’t know what tuyo is,  Tuyo is a dried herring that is a staple product in the Philippines perfect for our Pinoy breakfast. It is also best paired with fried eggs and fried garlic rice (oh! Im craving it right now 😋! LOL!).

Just recently I saw the newly makeover recipe of tuyo! which is they called it “gourmet tuyo”. Haven’t tried yet the one they sell online because ordering it from here will cost me a lot for just a small bottle of tuyo. So I decided to make my own version of gourmet tuyo and since my mom sent me a package of Pilipino food as my birthday present last month (I’m so thankful that they include tuyo in the box 🤣)  Now I would be able to make my own cheaper version of tuyo gourmet. Some people use 3 different oil like Corn oil, vegetable oil and olive oil but for this recipe I will only use olive oil.  Common lets cook!

I’m so thankful that tuyo is included in my package!
