    How to make Alaminos Longganisa:

    • Mix all ingredients thoroughly in a bowl except the hog casing. Adjust the atsuete powder or food coloring until you achieve the desired color. Cover the bowl with cling wrap or lid and refrigerate for 5 days.
    • Stuff mixture in pork casings using a funnel or sausage stuffer. If using dried hog casing, soak in warm water for 3 minutes before stuffing. Divide the longganisa by twisting into 2 inch links then tie with strings.
