Cebuano food historian and author Louella Alix welcomes us into her kitchen to share three cherished heritage dishes: balbacua, casajos, and timke. Each recipe comes with the stories and traditions that shaped Cebuano home cooking across generations. This episode of Lutong Bahay offers an intimate look at how Cebuano home cooking carries memory, craft, and cultural continuity through everyday dishes made inside the family kitchen.

It’s often the most hardworking communities: the farmers, fishers, vendors, and daily wage earners, who are hit the hardest in times like these. They are the backbone of these beautiful places, and they need our support now more than ever. Every bit of help makes a difference, reach out to your local NGO and other trusted organizations for donations.
