Chicken and pork embutido is a combination of ground pork and ground chicken meat and made into a meatloaf. The original embutido use only pork but this one has chicken meat in it. Embutido is a Filipino version of meat loaf wrap in aluminum foil.
The traditional way is wrapping the embutido mixture in pig’s caul fat or membrane of fat that encloses the intestines, (remember the white color hair net-like structure?) and formed into baloney shape. Today you can seldom see those kinds of embotido and most dishes specially commercial ones use aluminum foil. Anyway the recipe I have here use aluminum foil for practicality but if you can find the caul fat, then I think you can replace the aluminum foil with it.

If i-sell po ang product. May sample computation po ba kayo ng dapat iconsider na mga expenses and pano po presyuhan yun mga expenses like utilities. How much po mag mark up after?
Thank you
Hi Grace, wala po akong computation kasi for home consumption lang kasi ung mga recipes dito. Tsaka wala kasing extender na katulad ng mga commercial products. Dun kasi kumikita yung mga manufacturers sa pag lalagay ng extenders tulad ng TVP (textured vegetable protein).
