tofu sizzling sisig


sisig is a filipino dish that is made of minced parts of a pig's head (ears, nose, cheek, etc.) that is seasoned with calamansi juice and chilli peppers.  it is usually served on a hot sizzling platter and eaten as a pulutan (appetizer).  anthony bordain actually tastes sisig when he does an episode of No Reservations in the phillippines....check it out on you tube.

i was inspired to make this vegan version of sisig after i had the tofu version at Intramuros in South San Francisco.  here's my version of sisig.
