We made a buttermilk-marinated turkey breast for Thanksgiving (see Note 1 below), and we decided to make a post-Thanksgiving recipe inspired from my childhood: leftover turkey slow-cooked broth (gomtang). We also picked up a few tips from this post: https://kimchimari.com/spicy-turkey-leftover-soup-korean/.

Filipino minced chicken with green beans (ginisang baguio beans)

We have made a soy sauce-based version of ginisang baguio beans for years, but we decided to try this recipe, which utilizes fish sauce and fresh tomato: https://panlasangpinoy.com/ginisang-baguio-beans-pork/.
