This recipe was given to me by a co-worker in 1996 when I was working at the lamp company (Kalco Lighting)on the assembly line. I cannot remember her name but she was from the Philippines. She said that this was a recipe her grandmother made during WWll and that this was what they used on everything from eggs,to sausages. We like it with sweet potato fries and hot dogs too!
