Atsara

ATCHING’S ATSARA. We sent some of these Papayas to Pampanga, to our RuRi Egg maker named Atching Rose, to process them into ATSARA. Made sweet by design because in Pampanga, they put atsara on top of chicharon. The bite is called pititchan. They demonstrated this pairing to us over lunch but we thought it was a personal eating preference. Not until we watched Erwan Heusaff demonstrate it to Phil Rosenthal in the Manila episode of “Somebody Feed Phil’ were we finally convinced that it is a thing. So yeah, this sweet blend Atsara made from the Maria Aurora Papayas. As you know those Papayas are so big, more than 2 kilos each, and they were actually perfect to make into this.

Please try. Each 330 ml bottle is P250 only, comes with a small Papaya. Do try, do enjoy.
