Embutido (Meatloaf – Filipino Style)
I’ve tried making Embutido twice already. I was happy the first time, but happier the second time. =) I did all the chopping manually the first time, but because my loving hubby gifted me a really good food-processor for my birthday last year, making it the second time around makes it a lot easier and I would say, much more flavorful.
