Perus Genuss fr alle Sinne
By Silke Hoffmann
er an einem normalen Wochentag in den Supermarkt geht, kann oftmals zu Recht hoffen, dass es noch frische und nicht zu teure Frchte und Gemse aufzufinden ist. Gerade in Deutschland hat man noch das Glck, die Frchte und Gemse aus Spanien, Israel und Portugal genieen zu knnen, doch oftmals ist die Auswahl gering. Wer gerne Frchte mag, wird sich wohl mit den Birnen, pfeln, Bananen und im Winter mit dem Orange glcklich schtzen drfen. Doch was wre, wenn es verschiedene Bananen Arten gbe und man jeden Tag eine andere Banane Art genieen knnte. Oder wenn es einfach mal verschiedene Kartoffel Arten gbe, die man noch nie gekostet hat. Wer auf der Suche nach den 640 verschiedenen Sorten Obst ist, wird sie weder im Markt auf dem Lande noch im Supermarkt finden, sonder in kleinen bescheidenem Lande Peru.
Das kleine Land Peru ist ein Staat im westlichen Sdamerika und grenzt im Norden an Ecuador und Kolumbien, im Osten an Brasilien, im Sdosten an Bolivien, im Sden an Chile und im Westen an den Pazifik. In keinem Land wie diesen, kann man von einer Vielfalt von Gemse und Frchten genieen. Wer bis heute dachte, dass die Kartoffel langweilig und einseitig ist irrt sich gewaltig. Denn in Peru kann man insgesamt 4000 verschiedene Kartoffel Sorten wiederfinden. Neben den 4000 Kartoffel Sorten verzerren die Einwohner Perus 2016 verschiedene Skartoffel. Jede Kartoffel und Skartoffel hat ihre eigene Gre, ihre eigene Farbe und ihren eigenen Geschmack.
Doch damit ist es nicht genug. Die wohl groe Spezialitt Sdamerikas, der Mais, wird in Peru in 35 verschiedenen Sorten gefeiert. Daneben gibt es 15 verschiedene Sorten Tomaten, 640 verschiedenen Sorten Obst, 2000 verschiedene Sorten Fische und mehrere verschiedene Sorten Bananen.
Wer solch eine Auswahl an Obst und Gemse hat, kann unendlich viele Gerichte koche und genieen. Und das ist genau der Fall in Peru. Die Peruanische Kche ist zwar eine eher Basis Kche aber dafr eine reichhaltige Kche. Die Landeskche Perus gilt als die Beste in Umgebung und Gebiet. Die Peruanische Kche ist aus der Vereinigung zahlreicher Einflsse entstanden, basierend auf der traditionellen Kche der Inka (Quechua). Die ist ein Gemisch aus spanischen Kche und portugiesischen Kche aus der Kolonialzeit, aus afrikanischen, chinesischen, japanischen, italienischen, franzsischen und englischen Kche aus dem 19. Jahrhundert, wobei die Grundnahrungsmittel Mais und Kartoffeln sind. Eigentlich hrt sich das eher trocken und geschmacklos an, aber bei der Auswahl an Kartoffeln und Mais, bekommt die peruanische Kche schon eine ganz neue Perspektive.
Zu den wahrscheinlich typischsten Gerichten peruanischer Kche gehren folgende:
TacachoAj de gallina, eine Art Hhnerfleisch in einer Chili-Sauce, pikant und scharf, aber mit viel Geschmack
Albondigas, dabei handelt es sich um Fleischbllchen
Carapulcra, einen Eintopf aus getrockneter Kartoffel und Fleisch
Causa a la Limena, ein Gericht aus gewrztem Kartoffelpree mit Hummerkrabben und Gemse
Choclo con queso, gekochter Maiskolben mit Kse
Chupe de Camarones, eine besonders leckere Suppe aus Garnelen, Kartoffeln und Gemse
Estofado, ein weitere Eintopf aus Fleisch, Kartoffeln, Mais und Mhren
Papas a la huancaina besteht aus Kartoffelstcke mit einer scharfen Ksesoe
Tacachos besteht aus Kle aus Kochbananen zusammen mit Speck
Wer sich also auf eine kulinarische und auch archologische Endeckungsreise setzte will, sollte seine nchsten Urlaub nach Peru buchen. Peru ist das perfekte Land fr jedermann, der Abenteuer, Urlaub und Entspannen sucht. Wer jedoch eher auf Sauna, Casino Spiele und wilde Party ist, sollte liebe zu Hause bleiben!

A Little Place Called Bacolod Philippines
By Sai Vallejos
Experience a happy blending of cosmopolitan and rustic lifestyle in Negros Occidental, the sugar capital of the country. Celebrate nature’s blessings: waterfalls, caves, mountains, rivers, springs and valleys. Go hiking and camping, fishing and angling, scuba diving and snorkeling, mountain biking and sky diving with guidance from reliable locals. Travel centuries back in time visiting stately mansions in Silay City, one of the top 25 destinations of the Philippines. Or go on Iron Dinosaurs (steam locomotives) or other special interest tours.
There are varied accommodation and dining facilities from luxurious to simply modest. Rates are reasonable. Whatever you go for, Negros Occidental has it.
BRIEF HISTORY
Originally known as “Buglas” by its natives. This fourth largest island in the Philippine archipelago was given the name “Negros” by the Spanish navigators when Esteban de Rodriguez discovered the island in April, 1565 and found its earliest occupants to be dark-skinned natives belonging to the Negrito ethnic group. The natives then, occupied initially most of the southern portion of the province, being Binalbagan and Ilog. Two of the earliest native settlements which officially became towns in 1572 and 1584, respectively. Other settlements were Hinigaran, Bago, Marayo (now Pontevedra), Mamalan (now HImamaylan) and Candaguit.
In 1734, the island became a military district and Ilog became its first capital. Bacolod was made provincial capital in 1849. Then in 1856, Negros Occidental was raised to the category of a politico-military province. During this time, several more towns were established like San Carlos and Calatrava. Other towns were created, particularly Saravia, Escalante and Valladolid (1860) as a result of the growth of Population and the influx of immigrants coming from neighboring provinces such as Iloilo, Antique, Capiz, and Cebu. These growth in population and immigrants brought to the province in turn rapid material growth and development during the later part of the 18th century.
The major boon to the province at this time were two: the cultivation of sugar which brought economic boost as it later led Negros to pioneer other provinces in sugar production with its initial of 4,000 piculs of sugar in 1856 increasing to 2,000,000 piculs in 1897. With this, new machineries such as those operated by steam were used in the towns of Bacolod, Minuluan and Bago. Another boon was the opening of the ports like Iloilo and Cebu to foreign commerce.
During the last decade of the 19th century, several important events may be summarized: one, the making of Negros Occidental as a separate province in 1890. Two, the joining of the Negrense revolutionary leaders in the nationwide Katipunan Movement which overcame the Spanish garrison in the province on November 6, 1898 during one of the Filipinos?revolt against the Spanish rule. Three, the arrival of the Americans in the province in May, 1899 leading to the establishment of a Civil Government in Negros Occidental on April 20, 1901. Fouth, the ousting and surrender of the Japanese Forces in Negros (1945) after both civilian and military leaders in Negros Occidental pursued and organized a free government in the province.
After the upheaval and destruction brought by the first and second world wars, the next years following it, were dedicated to the rehabilitation and reconstructions of various sectors as Industry and Commerce, principally the sugar industry. Following this recuperation period, socio-economic growth in the province ensued.
LANGUAGE/DIALECT
Negrenses, as practically all Filipinos, are poly-lingual. Of the 87 dialects in the country, two Visayan dialects are predominantly used in the province: Ilonggo, which is spoken by 80% to 90% of the populace, and Cebuano which is used by the rest. English, however, is widely spoken; thus the English-speaking visitor will have little or no communication problem at all.
MAJOR INDUSTRIES
Negros Occidental is primarily an agricultural province. Of the total land area of 792,607 hectares, 588,145 hectares are arable land of which appoximately 419,305.084 hectares or 53% are devoted to agriculture.
With diversification as a major provincial development program, new land uses such as more inland fishing, livestock & poultry, grains and new crops like coffee, cacao, black pepper, orchards, ramie and others are increasing.
The province of Negros Occidental is reported by the Bureau of Mines to be rich in both metallic and non-metallic mineral resources, notably copper, gold, silver and molybdenum. Among the non-metallic minerals are stones, gravel, and sand and other construction materials, also salt and guano.
The socio-economic life of Negros Occidental from the 1950?s up to the 1980?s depended mainly on sugar, producing annually about 60% of the country?s sugar output. The four corners of the archipelago have focused their wide open eyes and melting mouth to the glory of the Negrenses. Negros is where high living and high eyebrows were.
