My snack

Here is my snack today, sab-a bananas with "guinamos" ( Visayan fermented small white fish and salt pounded to a paste and has a little sauce). I could not swap this to anything you offer for snack. I just simply love bananas with"guinamos" as dipping especially with a bit of chili and calamansi on it. But it's unfortunate this time that is not a calamansi season here yet, so I could not have any for my "guinamos" dipping but as long as it has chili, still fine for me. I could eat as far as I could stomach with this type of snack. lolz. Kids find the "guinamos" atrocious so I have to eat it alone on the table and that's the good thing too with this snack, nothing to worry for competitors at all in the household...lolz. I got the sab-a bananas from the Filipino shop, frozen and just microwaved it. I have a good snack that appeased my loooong craving for a while.

Boiled sab a bananas with guinamos is a typical snack in Cebu. The sight of this brings back great childhood memories which are deeply embedded in my heart. Back in my hometown one of our neighbors had bananas in their backyard and during harvest time, they didnt miss to share some around the neighborhood which we enjoyed for afternoon snack with guinamos to punch with it. Spending time swimming in the beach with friends on weekends would not be complete without bananas either with guinamos or "buwad" (salted dried fish) or even "kinilaw" (raw chopped fish pieces cooked in vinegar with spices). I still can recall too that every visit to our Lola, bananas were right on the table for our snack and a sack half full of bananas ready for us to take home. Oh..how I miss those times!!!
