Bowled over: Marinduque’s version of the Batangas bulalo has the shank smoked first over coconut husks and then covered with banana leaves to seal in the smoke, and then boiled with sour adwas (libas in Visayan) leaves and gabi (called singapur or San Fernando hereabouts). It has been a common practice in the whole province of smoking (called tinapahan) meat cuts used for nilaga to be smoked first as a means of preserving it before the advent of refrigeration.
