00:33 Raise the flag!
00:36 Let's go on a food trip to the story of Chino Gaston.
00:40 In the world, there are many foods that are different from each other in terms of cooking.
00:46 But for the Ilonggos, the foods that have been passed down for generations are the ones that are the most important.
00:53 Iloilo represents.
00:56 Because of these foods, the province of UNESCO was recognized as one of the creative cities for gastronomy.
01:04 It is the place where the four decades of gastronomy was born.
01:08 Let's eat!
01:10 Anita Tatuan is proud of the way she cooks for her mother.
01:17 Baybay is a special food for us.
01:21 It is a special occasion for us to eat.
01:24 For wedding, for funeral, for any occasion, baybay is a present.
01:31 In the tree of Nyog, the Iloilo is the main ingredient.
01:34 We make a lot of foods.
01:36 Kalamay Hati, suman, ibus, the product of young coconut, bucarillo and bukayo.
01:42 The contents of Nyog is the main ingredient in making baybay.
01:46 We put a lot of coconut to make it chewy, ma'am.
01:50 And the one that is not hard, just enough to make it delicious.
01:56 To make baybay, we put the sticky rice in the washing machine and wash it.
02:03 Then, we let it dry.
02:05 After that, it will be cooked for almost one hour to make it crunchy.
02:11 We grind it to make powder.
02:13 The young coconut, kudkurin, we cook it with refined sugar.
02:19 And then in the morning, we make baybay.
02:24 We mix it, then we pound it.
02:26 After pounding, we wrap it.
02:29 Anita sells baybay for 10 pesos per piece and 400 pesos per kilo.
02:36 Because of baybay, my children are done.
02:40 We bought things.
02:43 We have a car for delivery.
02:48 Since I was a child, until now, that is what we earn for living, ma'am.
02:54 Baybay is not forgivable for the exploitation of the Iloilo, according to the Municipal Tourism Officer, Mary Diane Flor de Liza.
03:04 Baybay is an important part of the exploitation of Iloilo
03:08 because it shows the strict culture, history and way of life of the Iloilo people.
03:17 Baybay became the source of their livelihood.
03:19 It is also a big help to tourism.
03:22 That is why the Iloilo people are game to eat baybay.
03:27 It has a sweet taste.
03:29 I miss you so much, you can fill it with bread.
03:32 Rice is an important part of the culture and identity of a place.
03:38 That is why it is important to preserve its cooking for decades
03:43 so that it can be tasted and recognized by the whole world.
03:47 I am Chino Gaston and that is the story you need to know.
03:51 Thank you.
