Buenas frozen malunggay moringa leaves 227g

Bring malunggay into your home cooking with Buenas Frozen Malunggay Leaves, supplied in a single 227g bag. A product of the Philippines, this frozen ingredient is also named Dahon ng Malunggay and Horseradish Leaves on the front of the pack. The ingredients identify the leaves as Moringa oleifera, so this is a leafy cooking ingredient rather than a jar of horseradish condiment or a piece of horseradish root.

The ingredient list is straightforward: horseradish tree leaf, or Moringa oleifera, at 60%, and water. This is an ingredient to prepare and cook, not a ready to eat salad or a finished soup. Keep a bag in your freezer when planning recipes that call for malunggay, and choose the other ingredients according to the dish you want to make.

Explore our Filipino food selection when putting together your shopping list. Whether you are making a familiar meal or trying the cooking suggestions for the first time, having your ingredients ready before you begin makes preparation easier. The 227g size is supplied as one individual retail bag, allowing you to choose the number of bags that suits your own cooking plans.

How to prepare and cook frozen malunggay leaves

Start by thawing the frozen leaves, then wash them thoroughly, drain and set aside. These are the preparation steps given for this product. The leaves must be cooked thoroughly before consumption, so do not treat them as ready to serve directly from the bag. Follow the complete current packaging instructions and the cooking requirements of the other ingredients in your recipe.

One suggested dish is misua with malunggay leaves and egg soup. The recipe uses garlic, onion, chicken stock or water, misua noodles, eggs and the leaves, with fish sauce, salt and pepper for seasoning. It begins by sautéing garlic and onion, adding liquid and cooking the noodles before the eggs and drained leaves are added. Check the full directions for quantities, timing and the complete preparation sequence before starting.

Browse our noodle selection when planning a noodle soup, taking care to choose the type required by your recipe. Different noodles have different cooking instructions, so prepare them as directed rather than assuming they all behave the same way. Our soup collection is another place to browse when thinking about other meals you would like to make.

A second cooking suggestion combines the leaves with sweet potato cubes and salted fish sauce, with fried fish added as desired. This recipe also begins with garlic and onion, followed by water and the sweet potato before the leaves are added and simmered. These additional ingredients are serving suggestions and are not included in the bag. Choose your recipe first so that you can gather everything needed for the finished dish.
