Kalderetang Baka Recipe: Filipino Spicy Beef Stew
Beef Caldereta Recipe
Team Out of Town Blog Hub (Outoftownblog.com) – A Filipino feast will not be complete without Kalderetang Baka on the buffet spread. Caldereta’s name is derived from the Spanish word caldera meaning cauldron. Kalderetang Baka or Beef caldereta is a popular beef stew dish from the Philippines. The fatty beef meat is stewed with tomato sauce, carrots, potato, liver paste, and spices.
If you are looking for the best part of beef to use for caldereta, we highly recommend chuck beef. This part becomes tender and juicy as you slowly cook it in water. You may also use beef brisket, ribs, and beef shanks as alternatives.
