Philippine Recipies Made Easy

This was the first cookbook of Filipino recipes that I was able to follow clearly ... it contains all the recipes I grew up begging my mother to make for me.

The Philippine Cookbook

The recipes are well-organized and easy to follow. As a self-proclaimed connosieur of Filipino foods, I highly recommend this book if you're searching for an authentic taste of the Philippines.

Filipino Cuisine: Recipies from the Islands

As a first generation Filipino, I have collected several cookbooks on Filipino cuisine and this by far is the best, in the format, recipes and background info on origination and regional histories. Very thorough, informative. I highly recommend it.

Fine Filipino Food

Enjoy this blend of cuisines with its 19 cooking methods, such as stir-frying, deep-frying, grilling on skewers, sautéing in coconut milk, marinating in vinegar and spices, broiling over live charcoal, wrapping in banana leaves, and steaming. Fine Filipino Food features 205 recipes, a glossary of ingredients, a guide to ingredient substitutions, and an extensive resource guide, which allow all home cooks to perfectly recreate these tantalizing dishes.

Filipino Cooking for the Common Family

Filipino Cooking for the Common Family is a collection of over 100 authentic Filipino recipes that can be prepared with ease. These dishes are simple enough for the typical nightly dinner, but sophisticated enough to serve to invited guests.

Not My Bowl of Rice

I bought this book mostly for the recipes, and ended up loving the story as well. It was hard to put down! I thoroughly enjoyed not only the lighthearted story, but also the descriptions of Philippine culture and Philippine history and traditions.

Banana Leaves: Filipino Cooking and Much More

With more than 220 tasty recipes from the Philippines and other countries, Banana Leaves offers more than traditional cooking techniques. It's a book of family, love and memories. Each recipe is written from the heart - and from the experiences of growing up in the Philippines during a time of war... Banana Leaves features recipes of different kinds of dishes such as pancit (noodles), lumpia (spring rolls), kakanin (Filipino snacks), and more.

Basic Tagalog for Foreigners and Non-Tagalogs

This book provides a nice working vocabulary, pronunciation guide, and basic grammar. This is THE book to have to start learning Tagalog.

Beginning Tagalog

This is perhaps the most In-depth work on the Tagalog language that I am aware of. This is a college textbook with lots of cultural notes.

Concise English-Tagalog Dictionary

Mr. Panganiban is (was?) a respected Philippine linguist. So I am a bit disappointed that this dictionary is only one-way. But the content is useful.

Tagalog-English, English-Tagalog (Philipino) Standard Dictionary

This is THE most comprehensive two-way Tagalog & English dictionary I've seen! Not only does provide the equivalent of a word in one language, but it also gives the origin; whether it's from Chinese, Spanish, English, etc.

Pilipino-English English-Pilipino Phrasebook and Dictionary

Good , easy book for beginning tagalog speakers and readers.it helped me a lot..

Talk Now! Tagalog - CD

Nice interactive cd for beginning Tagalog. Learn basics such as numbers, colors, directions as well as some simple dialogs. The sound is quite clear and allows you to hear the words pronounced alternately by a male and a female voice. There are also multiple choice quizes that test what you have learned. There is a text that can be printed as well to assist in the learning of Tagalog.

Tagalog Dictionary

Excellent. A basic Tagalog/English dictionary. I used it when I was learning Tagalog among the Philippino people in the Bay Area.

Beginning Tagalog: A Course for Speakers of English (Book and Cassette ed.)

5-Star rating!

Ilocano: Ilocano-English/English-Ilocano Dictionary and Phrasebook

Seeing that there aren't many resources for learning non-Tagalog languages in the Philippines, this book makes up for that. The beginning of the book deals mainly with grammar and it also includes a short history of the language. And the rest is a dictionary. As Carl Rubino stated to me, it's part of a 500-page thesis... And I must add, it's very well done.

Ilocano Dictionary and Grammer: Ilocano-English, English-Ilocano

This is the best Ilocano dictionary out there. The author's love and dedication to the Ilocano language is an accurate reflection of the hardwork over that years that he has put into this impressive and high-quality dictionary. Not many dictionaries dealing with Philippine languages are as detailed as this one. And not many go great lengths as to include a meaty grammatical sketch, history, and explanation of pronunciation. However, this one does. And very well, I may add.
