#ampalaya

[filipinofoodart]

Is Ampalaya in your "FARMacy?" Ampalaya is a common ingredient for dishes such as ensalada, pinakbet, monggo, dinengdeng, paksiw na isda, and more!

It is also one of ten medicinal plants approved by the DOH. Ampalaya has long been used to treat different ailments, including diabetes and blood sugar level control.

More than 4 million Filipino adults have diabetes (IDF 2021), and it is the 4th leading cause of death in the country (PSA 2023). To help, maintain or transition to a more active livestyle and eat lots of vegetables like ampalaya. Tending a simple garden "FARMacy" is a great way to do both, or “feed two birds with one seed!” Printable: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1591258560/ampalaya-or-bittermelon-with-baybayin

Not everyone loves ampalaya, but maybe it’s just a vegetable that is simply misunderstood. 

“The Bitter Melon” by Dr. Jocelyn Francisco of Little Yellow Jeepney shows us how children and adults can handle feelings and emotions through the eyes of this bitter vegetable. It was not only fun to illustrate, but I learned a few things about mental health and well-being. 

It is available as a digital book for Kindle or on Apple books. Amazon Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/Bitter-Melon-Jocelyn-Francisco-ebook/dp/B09ZB3XWVR Apple Books: https://books.apple.com/us/book/the-bitter-melon/id1621986286

Paano mo napagtanto na mahirap lang kayo nung bata kayo?

nagluto lamang ng tanghalian si inay, yung ampalayang nitibo na mapait. bilang isang batang ayaw ang mapait na gulay palagi na ako sinasaway ni inay na dapat marunong daw ako kumain sa kahit anong pagkain na ihahain sa hapagkainan. nung naluto na ni inay ang ampalayang may sarsadong itlog— itlog lamang ang kinain ko kasi 'yun lamang ang masarap sa‘king panlasa bilang apat na taong gulang na bata. nung nalaman ni papa na ayaw ko kumain sa gulay na ampalaya, umutang siya sa kapitbahay namin ng paborito kong hotdog para makain ko. at nang maubos/nasimot ko na ang lahat ay biglang tanghalian na agad. hinatdan ako ni papa ng baon sa paaralan ng ampalayang may sarsadong itlog at hindi ako kumain ng baon ko. nung uwian na at binigay ko sa mama ang baonan ko nagalit si mama nung nakita niyang di ko kinain ang baon na hinanda niya sa‘kin. “ma ayaw ko nga ng mapait na ampalaya e” usal ng batang ako. bigla na lamang dumating ang papa ko at napabuntong hininga na nangingilid ang luha nung nalaman niya na ‘di ko man lang nakain ang hinatid niyang baon ko. “anak pasensya na kung puro ampalayang nitibo lamang ang malalapag namin ng mama mo sa iyong plato katulad lamang ng ampalayang nitibo na gulay ang buhay natin anak mapait at hindi masarap. hindi ka rin naman masisisi ng iyong inay na ayaw mo kumain ng pinaka ayaw mo na gulay kasi sino ba naman ang gugusto sa mapait na ampalaya, pasensya na ulit anak kung mapait na buhay ang naihain namin sa‘yo ng inay mo”.

I've been dreaming about ampalaya I think it's a sign. If anyone would like to interpret chopping bitter melon with your sister in your childhood home for me I'm all ears. I don't even think I ever made ampalaya in that house, only at my grandma's and after we moved

HAPPY 413! Here's more of the [non-Sburb AU] Filipino/multiracial Striders I write and draw. Bitter melon was on sale in the store, so I bought a ton, and I was like, 'How can I make this Homestuck content?' Lol. I like the taste, but I thought it would be funny to have Bro bully Dave into eating it as a punishment for being a sneaky vegetable-hating teen. (Good thing Lil Cal is always there to keep an eye on him when Bro is out.)

Idk, mostly wanted to draw the food, bc bitter melon looks so fun when it's sliced like that.

Bro and Dave are both trans men.

Image text below cut:

[Dave walks in on Bro cooking. Lil Cal is seated at the table already.] Dave: the fuck- what are you cooking Bro: Ginisang ampalaya. Heard you're not eatin' your veggies. Dave: cal... fuckin snitch Bro: HEY. Dave: seriously what is that alien dick Dave: ugh its all bumpy too Bro: Bitter melon. It tastes like cucumber skin, but has a better texture. Dave: fuckin gross Bro: What, are you a fuckin' pussy? Too white to try pagkaing Pilipino? ["Filipino food"] Dave: damn right if it involves warty dick-cumbers Dave: aint filipino no more Dave: gonna have to hog the white genes on this Bro: Here. Prob want some cock sauce on that. [The food has crisp bitter melon, melted tomatoes, and scrambled eggs.] Dave: ugh do i have to eat it Bro: Yes. [Everyone is seated at the table. 'Cock sauce' is Sriracha because of the rooster on the bottle.] Dave: oh its not bad Dave: ... [The bitterness sets in.] Lil Cal: HAA HAA Dave: is this even edible Bro: Sure is. [Bro eats it normally.] And if I hear you're not eating your vegetables... Well, I'll just have to cook more of the same thing dad used to make me. There's enough to last all week. Dave: ...fuck Bro: Eat up. It's healthy. Dave: please dont make me eat this Dave: ill eat any other vegetables ok? just not this Bro: That's what I wanna hear. But you're still finishing this one. For throwing out all that food. Dave: ugh END.
