In my recent post, I featured gourmet tuyo in a pasta recipe. I found the 230 gram bottle available in the supermarket to be expensive for a price of Php 185, so I thought of making my own. Heh. The thrifty in me.
How to make Gourmet Tuyo (Dried Herring Fillet) in corn oil
Ingredients:
250 grams tuyo (remove heads, scales, and bones if desired)
1/2 cup corn oil (olive oil is also a good substitute)
1/2 cup vinegar
4 cloves chopped garlic
1 tbsp. chopped red chili peppers
Materials:
1 sterilized bottle
Instructions:
Fry tuyo in oil for easy removal of scales. When the scales start to come up from the skin, remove from pan and drain excess oil.

The bottle said, “spices”. You think there are more than just garlic and chili?
Hmm I haven’t tried anything other than those mentioned spices. But if ever you try experimenting on it, just let us know! To date, measurements I posted tastes fine, similar to the ones available in the market.
Hello! I could have sworn I’ve been to this site before but after going through some of the posts I
realized it’s new to me. Anyhow, I’m certainly delighted I stumbled upon it and
I’ll be book-marking it and checking back often!
Hi! Thanks! It must be the new layout hehe. 🙂
Hi. Can you use vegetable oil instead of corn / olive oil?
Hi Carol! Vegetable oil might work but I haven’t tried it yet. It might affect the taste though. Let us know if you tried it!
