We found ox tails in the commissary on Schofield Barracks, HI.
They're used quite often over there for ox tail soup or stew.

Filipinos love ox tails and they are well represented there.

I tried making it once and we were less than impressed. I do
have the recipe in at least one of my Hawaiian cook books if
you're interested. (G)

I have several good recipes if there's interest. Jamaican style with
plantains and lots of chilies and allspice is my favourite style.

Hi Jim,

We found ox tails in the commissary on Schofield Barracks, HI.
They're used quite often over there for ox tail soup or stew.

They are very well represented! Our church had a Filipino congregation
meeting after all the English speaking services (4) were held on Sunday mornings. Occaisionally Steve and I were invited to stay and meet with
them, then join them for dinner afterwards. Had some good meals then but
Steve found out that he didn't like bitter melon.

I tried making it once and we were less than impressed. I do
have the recipe in at least one of my Hawaiian cook books if
you're interested. (G)

I have several good recipes if there's interest. Jamaican style with plantains and lots of chilies and allspice is my favourite style.

OK, I'll let you post your recipies. The one I have has much less zing
to the spicing. (G)

Luckily bitter melon is not mandatory!

It was probably English or German! [g]

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

Title: Kare-Kare - Filipino Ox-Tail Stew
Categories: Filipino, Beef, Stews, Nuts, Beans
Yield: 1 batch

String beans
Chunky Peanut butter
Eggplant
Ox tail (of course)
Orr brand Achuote

Boil the ox tail the night before until it is quite tender,
but the meat doesn't fall off the bone. Remove the meat and cool the
soup in the refrigerator. The next evening remove the fat. Cook
the meat again and add eggplant, string beans and cook some more.
Add the peanut butter. Mix the Achuote in water and add to the pot
(only the liquid portion, strain the seeds) Let it cook some more.

I don't prefer the following, but it is tradition: Fry some
bagoong. Serve with rice.

Posted by: Nico Rodin Tuason

Comments:

Its even better with tripe added. Also, add lemon to the bagoong.

Achuote is Achiote or Annatto Paste and Bagoong is fermented
shrimp paste - JW

MMMMM

No, so I don't buy it. I didn't have any problems with it.

Who knows, seeing it came from a Hawwaiian cook book.
