Hi all:

Does anyone have a recipe for pancit they would like to share?

Thanks,

Might be hard to get a Filipina(o) to give up a family recipe on a message board! Took my mom a while before she started teaching my wife her recipes, but it was worth the wait! There are a couple good cookbooks out, my wife got by on a couple until my mom showed her the "right way" to do it.

Hi Andy:

Well hope springs eternal. If anyone wants to share it with me privately please PM or e-mail. I promise not to spread it. It's for my personal recipe collection

In any case, the link you sent is broken. Could you please send me the name and author.

Thanks,

Rich Curren

Hey Rich, the cookbook my wife has is "Philippine Cookbook" by Reynaldo Alejandro. Grimgfang's recipe sounds good, although I prefer Pancit Canton vs Bihon.

Thanks again. I normally have the Canton and have not tried the Bihon yet. Although I will now.
