DISCOVERING THE FLAVORFUL DIFFERENCE OF COOKING WITH SARSAYA OYSTER SAUCE

DEAR DREAMERS

Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation held a press conference to announce the launch of its latest product, Sarsaya® Oyster Sauce, and celebrity endorser, Mr. Coco Martin.

MADE FROM REAL OYSTERS

Sarsaya® Oyster Sauce is concentrated from real oysters, complete with seasonings to provide a delicious blend of savory, sweet and salty taste to any dish.

ENHANCING FILIPINO DISHES

According to Pen Alvina, Ajinomoto’s Category Manager for Menu Seasonings, “Sarsaya® Oyster Sauce is a unique brand of oyster sauce that is created to suit Filipino taste and preference, making many Filipino dishes like ginisang kangkong and adobo more flavorful and delicious.”

During the event, a live cooking demonstration and cook-off was facilitated by Chef Mcrhyan Rodrigo. Chef Mac cooked Filipino favorites Ginisarsayang Kangkong with Tokwa and his own recipe, Thai-style Stir Fried Chicken using Sarsaya® Oyster Sauce. Two mommy bloggers participated in a cook-off judged by none other than Mr. Coco Martin, where they discovered the convenience of using Sarsaya® Oyster Sauce to turn ordinary dishes extra special and flavorful.

COCO MARTIN AS ENDORSER

No less than the Primetime King, Mr. Coco Martin, was chosen to endorse Sarsaya® Oyster Sauce. He was a perfect fit for Sarsaya® Oyster Sauce, because aside from being a big fan of his grandmother’s cooking, Coco graduated with a degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management, he definitely showed his knowledge in food during the event. Coco claimed, “Kakaiba dahil lasang oyster na oyster!” He loved how Sarsaya® Oyster Sauce can add that delicious and authentic oyster flavor that truly enhances simple dishes.

SIZES AND PRICE

Sarsaya® Oyster Sauce is available in 30g pack (Php5) and 156g stand-up pouch. Also try the Sarsaya® Sweet and Sour Sauce, a delicious blend of pineapple and tomato flavor, available in 200g stand-up pouch. The stand-up pouches are pretty convenient, it has a resealable cap to keep the sauces tightly sealed.

MY THOUGHTS ON THE SARSAYA® SAUCES

Isaac and I loved their Sarsaya® Sweet and Sour Sauce as well which they served alongside lumpia shanghai during the event. It was actually Isaac who got me hooked onto oyster sauce. A few years back, Isaac made some delicious broccoli made with oyster sauce. Back then, I was clueless about cooking so I was unaware that it was oyster sauce that Chinese restaurants used to make vegetables really tasty. Now that I have a daughter, I’m glad that I can have her enjoy vegetables with Sarsaya® Oyster Sauce once she can start eating them because the Sarsayang kangkong with tokwa we tasted during the event really made eating vegetables enjoyable!
