Ajinomoto Porksavor

 

Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation puts together a media activity to showcase the brand PORKSAVOR® All-in-One Seasoning Mix with its new brand ambassadors Mr. Enrique Gil and his mother Mrs. Bambi Gil. 

True to the activity entitled “Step Up Your Cooking with PORKSAVOR®”, Ms. Nancy Reyes-Lumen and the brand ambassadors conducted live cooking demonstrations in a bid to challenge homemakers to step up their cooking and bring out the meaty goodness of home-cooked dishes using PORKSAVOR®. The show kitchen of the Center for Culinary Arts was filled with the delicious meaty aroma of dishes cooked for the audience.

According to Ms. Daryl Magno, Ajinomoto’s Category Manager – Flavor Seasonings, “Filipinos love food with strong meaty flavors and PORKSAVOR® can provide meaty taste and aroma for all types of dishes because it is made from natural pork meat and bone extract, complete with spices and seasonings.”

Hailed as the 'ADOBO QUEEN', Ms. Nancy Reyes-Lumen cooked delactable dishes using Ajinomoto Porksavor

PORKSAVOR® can provide the meaty taste in dishes even without meat. Using PORKSAVOR®, Ms. Nancy Reyes-Lumen cooked meatless pancit, which makes a great high fiber snack for those limiting their cholesterol intake. Mrs. Bambi Gil, who knows her way around the kitchen, also helped prepare the PORKSAVOR® Veggie Soup and Pastel dishes. Both recipes are a step up from the usual ‘pambaon’ ideas and are likewise perfect for the rainy season.

with Mommy Bambi Gil, mother of Enrique Gil said that "pinaglihi ko si Enrique sa tomato".

Enrique Gil said he dislikes 'suka' and one of his favorite dish is Pasta.

Mother and son loves to cook.

So hottie! With the 'King of the Gil', Enrique Gil

The mother and son tandem of Bambi and Enrique Gil are thrilled to endorse a one-of-a-kind product like PORKSAVOR®.
