What is Batangas Lomi?
Pancit lomi is thick and hearty Chinese-inspired noodle soup that is usually made with thick egg noodles, cabbage, carrots, chopped pork and pork liver, all in a thick savory broth. On its own, this Chinese-Filipino noodle soup is a simple but filling dish; however, this Batangas lomi recipe kicks it up a notch.
Batangas lomi has the same base as the pancit lomi, but it’s also got a delicious combination of side condiments which Batanguenos will recommend you mix together and pour right on top. Not only that, but they will also insist you eat it immediately, while it’s piping hot! This is because if you leave it to cool, it will lose its wonderful thick consistency. This recipe has a surprising ingredient, too: cassava, which gives the soup its consistency and texture.
Batangas lomi might have begun as a Chinese-inspired dish, but it’s been embraced and adapted by Batanggas so well it’s become a truly hearty, homey Filipino dish you can’t miss out on.
