00:00This is another New Year's staple of Caviteño.

00:03It also has a lot of meat.

00:05Is that not enough?

00:07Can we get rid of the ingredients that overload this dish?

00:12What is this?

00:13Smell?

00:14I can't smell anything.

00:15I can't taste anything either.

00:17I'll just explain.

00:18This is what gives the color.

00:20Chuete?

00:21Why did I say that?

00:25Small round?

00:26There is no taste of small round.

00:28Quail egg?

00:29No.

00:30It's smaller than a quail egg.

00:31Garbanzos?

00:32No.

00:34Very pasty.

00:35Kind of heavy.

00:36It's solid.

00:37It's solid, bro.

00:38So it's heavy.

00:39I thought it's like a puto.

00:40Galapong?

00:43What's the smell?

00:44When I smell it,

00:45I'll say the name right away.

00:47It's salty.

00:48It's ground.

00:49Mune?

00:51It's not pork.

00:52It's not beef.

00:53Chicken?

00:55It's not chicken.

00:56It's not beef.

00:57Pork?

01:00It brightens up those who want to be a woman.

01:02Lar?

01:03That's it.

01:04Good.

01:06It's usually breakfast in the morning.

01:09Egg?

01:10That's it.

01:11That's right.

01:12That's just a few of the overloaded and heavy-gutted ingredients of the Robinson family.

01:16But it's not just filling.

01:18It's been wrapped for almost a millennium.

01:23My husband's grandmother,

01:24Iluminada Robinson.

01:26Then it went to my grandmother.

01:28When my grandmother passed away,

01:30it went to me.

01:31The iconic food of Cavite,

01:35we thought there's only tamales in Pampanga.

01:38In fact, as early as 1900s,

01:42Benjamin Robinson,

01:43along with his wife,

01:45Sacramento Guerrero Robinson of Ermita,

01:48and she were the ones who spread tamales in Cavite.

01:54It's just wrapped for you to see.

01:56But it took me more than a day to cook it.

01:59It's peanut-based,

02:00with just a little bit of its filling.

02:02And it's used as a peppery and savory dish.

02:08It was influenced by Mexico,

02:10but somehow,

02:12the use and cooking of the ingredients evolved

02:15according to the taste of the Caviteños.

02:18When you're a Caviteño,

02:19when you grow up in Cavite City,

02:21this is what you'll look for in your food.

02:24Christmas and New Year.

02:28We opened the package,

02:31including all the ingredients.

02:33Let's taste the taste of the Caviteños' tamales.

02:39The Caviteños didn't want Robinsons to eat what they made.

02:44This is really hard.

02:45It's really well-packed to lengthen the shelf life.

02:50We tasted it here in Pampanga,

02:52and we also tasted it in Visayas.

02:54We also tasted it,

02:55probably not in Mexico,

02:57where it came from.

02:58But,

03:01I know it has peanuts mixed in,

03:04coconut milk.

03:05Actually, I just searched it on A.I. earlier.

03:08I really forgot.

03:09But there!

03:10It was revealed!

03:12Okay.

03:13One of the ingredients that A.I. said

03:18was achuete.

03:19I can see that.

03:20No.

03:22Hence, the peanut.

03:24But for me,

03:25anything savory,

03:26I still prefer it warm and hot.

03:29But in terms of taste,

03:32actually, the garbanzos is good.

03:34Because I like hummus,

03:36I feel like the aftertaste of the garbanzos is good,

03:42as well as the peanut butter with coconut milk and hard-boiled egg.

03:47I don't know if you think this is A.I.

03:50All you gotta do

03:51is just subscribe to the YouTube channel of Jamie Public Affairs

03:54and you can just watch all the Behind The Drew episodes all day,

03:58forever in your life.
