Using real coconut milk actually makes the dish more flavorful. :) My Father is Bicolano and he says real Bicol Express needs to be cooked with freshly squeezed coconut milk. He uses the second squeeze (thin coconut milk) to soften the meat. Then, he uses the first squeeze (coconut cream) towards the end and cooks it in a way that the oil from the coconut milk is naturally extracted. He also uses labuyo (small variety of chili that really packs a powerful punch in terms of spice). And for some reason, he cooks the dish with as little stirring as possible. What comes out of his cooking pan is Bicol Express that feels out of this world. I’m biased but I’ve never tasted or cooked Bicol Express as good as his. (Sorry for the word vomit. Miss my Dad all of a sudden. He’s so far away. :’))
Labuyo isn’t spicy for my taste so everytime I cook Bicol Express, I use spicier peppers. I usually use ghost pepper because I have one in my backyard.
All cooking with coconut milk should be done with the freshly-squeezed stuff. Products like canned or powdered always leave something to be desired, even high quality ones.
When us from south luzon just get some niyog (coconut) from the tree (free of charge) asking our tiyong (uncle) or tiyang (aunt) if we can get one and if we can borrow the kayuran (coconut shaver)... hahaha...
We know that... we were just comparing, i personally never bought the canned ones because the best gata for me are the freshly made ones from the niyog itself...
5:00 if you use original coconut milk (not from can) you will need to put water on coconut then squeeze the milk from it... Usually it is squeezed twice... The first squeezed coconut milk is more concentrated than the second one. Usually, when boiling to soften the pork, the 2nd squeezed coconut milk is used.. Then if the cooking is nearly finished, the 1st squeezed coconut milk is added since it has more flavor.. This is the traditional way and probably what was done on the video you watched... other variations burn the coconut meat first before squeezing out the milk.. This gives smokey flavor 🙂
A friend of my father who's from Bicol once cooked us Bicol Express and what he did was the food is like 2/3 chili and 1/3 pork rather than how we see it on the market which have more pork than chili.
Ganun naman kasi talaga yun for native bicolanos. Yung Bicol express kasi sa Manila ibang luto. Sa Bicol mas madaming sili at alamang. Kumbaga sahog lang yung baboy.
OMG BICOL EXPRESS! I'M BICOLANAAAA!!! I'm happy you tried one of the best dish in bicol! Come and visit Bicol too. 😊 Mayon rest house is one of the best spot to see the aesthetically view of Mayon Volcano 🌋 God Bless more power!!! #FightingUragons #SiliNation #Bicol
Bicol is currently underrated with a lot of really beautiful places such as Caramoan, Sorsogon, and Albay. I hope people will not pollute bicol and preserve its beautiful ecosystem.
Fun fact: Bicol Express is not originally from Bicol Cely Kalaw invented the dish in her Manila restaurant. She was inspired by the traditional Bicolano coconut-infused dishes and named the new invention after a Filipino train service (PNR) operating from Manila to the Bicol region.
I think you forgot to add lemon grass, the standard spice for dishes with coconut milk! It perks up the taste and the aromatic smell! Also cooking the coconut milk near to its oily state! And boom an aromatic super delicious bicol express! But salute to you Mr. Bul for your adventurous taste!
My uncle cooked bicol express everytime we go to vacation in Bicol. I love how he put so many siling labuyo ❤ Plus crabs with lots of coconut milk on it. 😭
Bicol express is one of my favorite Filipino dishes. You did a good job cooking this dish. Special Filipino taste that sets it apart from samgyupsal is coconut milk, ginger and shrimp paste. I use pork shoulder meat, not pork belly. It will be less greasy.
Whenever i order Bicol Express for takeout, i usually cook it again&add Sriracha sauce, hot chili flakes and chili oil. Usually most restaurants don't make it too spicy so that everyone can eat it. The extra cooking time for the coconut milk with the hot chili oil enhances the flavor too.
Mr.B, this is one of the version of its name: The food is sooo spicy that upon the first spoonful, you have to run as fast as you can to the kitchen to gargle, and ease the burning sensation inside your mouth. The way you run is like the BICOL EXPRESS train from manila to legazpi
This is my brother’s specialty. Thank you for sharing your appreciation for pinoy food ☺️. I’m sure your wife told you that pinoy food is rich (meaning, super flavorful) and meant to be eaten with a lot of rice because ingredients are expensive especially for big families long ago in The Philippines. But now, too much rice is not good for us because of diabetes. I try to eat like Koreans. Less rice and more vegetables now. Long live the BulBul family!
Look's delicious.. I watched KBS World a Korean Show in youtube.. Koreans like bulalo .. next video please Mr. Bulbul try Bulalo..and also try Adobong Pusit.. ☺
yoorc680 I think Mr. Bulbul needs to control his drinking. Look at what happened to him in the previous videos. I think he will focus now on food reviews instead.
here in bicol the shrimp paste (bagoong) is the main dish, adding pork is just like a seasoning that's made for the bagoong to be tasty so it's like 3/4 bagoong and a lot of chili's and 1/4 or less of pork
Thanks for this info. I agree with you about the amount of Bagoong Alamang but it should be the fresh bagoong Alamang not the bottled one because it will be so salty. Thanks again, I miss so much the Bagoong ALamang in the Philippines.
Mr Bulbul, just to give you a little knowledge about how we cook our meat, we put salt or any spices that could help build the taste of the meat before we cook. It's similar to marinated meat but just salt.
You speak English very well for me Mr. Bulbul. 👏 I'm really glad that you've cooked this. I'm a native of Bicol and we use real coconut milk fresh from coconut trees since coconut tree is abundant in our province. Thanks so much for patronizing Filipino food! You bring good vibes to us all! More power to you!
It’s called Bicol Express because back in the day there is literally a PNR (Philippine National Railway) stop all the way to bicol, and the signature of Bicol is of course spicy food so the name just stuck when you travel to Bicol using the train (express)
Re: 2nd milk added...If you use fresh coconut milk, the 1st press coconut milk is saved for later when the dish is almost done. Letting it simmer with pure coco milk makes it tastier. You can also use fresh shrimp paste (ingredient in kimchi) as a substitute if there is no bagoong available.
Its called bicol express because that food is invented in a eatery near the train station that is route to bicol

Bicol express the dish is a rendition made by cecilia kalaw the original recipe from bicol is called gulay na lada
Actually the Eatery is in Sta.Mesa,Manila, it was featured in I Juander in GMANews TV
Train to Bicol :D

We have plenty of fresh coconut milk in the Philippines but cold climate countries they don’t have it so they opted to canned coconut milk
@@imwithstupid086 of course but not everyone has access to that that's why they have the canned version.
hot damn i just got memories of shaving coconuts as a kid in bicol lol. loved the process. need to get me a shaving stool.
When he said coconut milk is 210php and i live in Quezon Province, damn thats expensive
When us from south luzon just get some niyog (coconut) from the tree (free of charge) asking our tiyong (uncle) or tiyang (aunt) if we can get one and if we can borrow the kayuran (coconut shaver)... hahaha...
20 pesos isang niyog na purong gáta...
Its cuz these are store bought coconut milk (gata) which is usually in can. I live in taguig and a can usually costs 150
We know that... we were just comparing, i personally never bought the canned ones because the best gata for me are the freshly made ones from the niyog itself...
Libre lang yan dito samin eh basta ikaw mismo magkukudkod, ang mahal naman sa inyo.
When he said he will search the recipe and held his phone, my mind goes
"hello and welcome sa panlasang pinoy..."
🤣🤣
Relate 😂😂
Hahahaha
Hahaha me too!!
Hahahaha i thought so
hahahaa yass
4:07 Mr Bulbul’s reaction to coco milk and bagoong is priceless... I bet it’s yummy too.
Wait until he taste with real coconut milk not canned coconut milk, it taste really different specially in cooking. :)

Nah.. I measure ingredients and everyone likes my dishes. ;)
Why I watched this, after I went to the grocery. Later I will go back and buy the ingredients to cook bicol express...
I just cooked bicol express last week
@@wardomekingoffire3865 what's the taste of bicol express?
Freshly squeezed coconut milk is more flavorful.and it should contain more chilli than meat.it's like 30 percent meat,70 percent chilli.
Happy eating!!!!🇰🇷🇰🇷❤❤❤
A friend of my father who's from Bicol once cooked us Bicol Express and what he did was the food is like 2/3 chili and 1/3 pork rather than how we see it on the market which have more pork than chili.
Condolence sa tyan mo 😂

Ganun naman kasi talaga yun for native bicolanos. Yung Bicol express kasi sa Manila ibang luto. Sa Bicol mas madaming sili at alamang. Kumbaga sahog lang yung baboy.
Hahahaha sahog lang ang karne, ginulay na sili talaga yan, minsan wala pang karne, local mushroom or bataw beans lang sahog 😂
That's how we do it.
2/3 chili 1/3 meat.
The canned coconut milk tends to be a bit more greasy than the fresh coconut milk. I also eat bicol express with kimchi hehe
Your English is Perfectly Fine💞!
That dish looks delicious.
OMG BICOL EXPRESS!
I'M BICOLANAAAA!!! I'm happy you tried one of the best dish in bicol! Come and visit Bicol too. 😊

This is the calmest cooking channel on YT. Big thumbs up Mr. B fo keeping it simple!
You're a natural born cook. Like you made it look so smooth and simple. Your channel always make me feel hungry.
Hearing all those news about the virus outbreak in Korea made me sad.
Stay safe sir!

I just finished sinigang cooking of Mr. Bulbul and now I am here and he is making me happy and crave at the same time
Maglalaway ka nlng tlga sa mga niluluto niyang masarap na ulam habang naka quarantine ka.
IFY pre
Think it's your personality, for some reason I can't stop watching your videos. I really enjoy it.
Everytime I think of Bicol express now, I think of your version!!! You make it look so easy and less intimidating to make! Thank you Mr Bulbul!!!
This guy is sensible. Few words but on point. Well done!
I've been a fan since you were still new, glad you're doing well till now 🙂
wow my favorite ulam...stay healthy po mr.bulbul❤❤❤
I would sauté the chillies together with onions and garlic just to make it more spicy.
❤❤🤚🤚🤚
Yes! The oil will be released from the seeds and it will make it spicier.
It also gives off a sweeter tone to the dish.
and add more pepper (half cooked)
StickySubstance or just use actual chili[siling labuyo] and not those chili-wannabies!
lol
Whenever i order Bicol Express for takeout, i usually cook it again&add Sriracha sauce, hot chili flakes and chili oil. Usually most restaurants don't make it too spicy so that everyone can eat it. The extra cooking time for the coconut milk with the hot chili oil enhances the flavor too.
I love this video because it popped out in my recommended . And I loved how he casually beers out with a bicol express.
Gonna try it tonight
Mr.B, this is one of the version of its name: The food is sooo spicy that upon the first spoonful, you have to run as fast as you can to the kitchen to gargle, and ease the burning sensation inside your mouth. The way you run is like the BICOL EXPRESS train from manila to legazpi
Sadly that train is until calamba only these days.
❤🇰🇷🇰🇷🖐🇰🇷
Quote: "The way you run is like the BICOL EXPRESS train from manila to legazpi"
So technically, you walk. 😂
You are so fun to watch, im smiling from beginning to end. Specially your reactions, its priceless. 😁😁😁👍
Bicol express was invented in a karinderia(canteen) by bicolano cooks near the PNR station in manila.
Wow.. you did it right.. awesome! Great cooking!

Awww this video is so endearing and humble. I loved every bit of it ☺️
mr. bulbul is just a simple man, wearing simple attire and very down to earth person.
Down to earth,meaning underground?
I love Korean people,.
Who love also filipino people..
Thanks bro.
I love rewatching this! Mr. bulbul you are the best korean mukbanger in yt... 😍♥️
Thanks for vlogging Pinoy cuisine. I really appreciate it. Btw, I'm from Bicol.
The way you cook it is so Korean too. We usually cut the pork belly first before cooking but you did it in reverse! I find it cute :)
Thanks for the tips!
Hey Bul Bul, I'd love to hear your review of random beers! Anything from craft beers to ciders!
yoorc680 I think Mr. Bulbul needs to control his drinking. Look at what happened to him in the previous videos. I think he will focus now on food reviews instead.
It makes me so happy that he is likes Filipino cuisine. Keep up the passion.
Pag nagluluto ako nyan. Ginigisa ko yung sili, sobrang anghang. Whooooa! Gusto ko tuloy kumain ngayon nyan 😍

Im a filipino and i was born in bicol
And actually i really love this food including laing (spicy pork veggie)
Mr. Bulbul keep up tnx for loving filipinos....
Im so proud of you mr. Bulbul!
Mr Bulbul, just to give you a little knowledge about how we cook our meat, we put salt or any spices that could help build the taste of the meat before we cook. It's similar to marinated meat but just salt.
The food was really named fron the passenger train Bicol Express. I think the Bicolanos see the spicy food as fast to be eaten.
If the food is spicy you will crave for more rice...
Respect to this guy very chill man. Cooking while sit thats cool. Oh its be cool express
You speak English very well for me Mr. Bulbul. 👏 I'm really glad that you've cooked this.

Ginger is an optional ingredient in bicol express, mr. Bulbul.
Made me crave again! Im envious of that Bicol express!
10years old watching ur videos is surely gigling when u speak ur youtube name.
I'm curious how much different canned coconut milk is from fresh coconut milk.
The sound of the metal scratching what looks like a teflon pan.
**disowned**
I thought I was the only one! I was like OMG D: D: D: NO =)))
that's not a nonstick pan, its a Korean style wok that has undergone carbon scouring.
wow... my mouth is drooling! i missed bicol express...
Hello sor thankyoubfor promoting filipino dishes
It was originally invented in Malate, Manila by Tita Cely Kalaw which is from Laguna.😀
but she learned her cooking skill in bicol :)
Mr bull. Thanks for speaking in English)
Sarap!!
Wow sarap nyan tito Bulbul.
New supporters are here
Bicol express 1st made at bicol train terminal...that'S why they called it "BICOL EXPRESS"

Really enjoyed the English video this time. The vocabulary thing does not really seem to be a problem. Your English is great! Keep it up!
Re: 2nd milk added...If you use fresh coconut milk, the 1st press coconut milk is saved for later when the dish is almost done. Letting it simmer with pure coco milk makes it tastier. You can also use fresh shrimp paste (ingredient in kimchi) as a substitute if there is no bagoong available.
