• What is Cornbip?
The Philippine word for the processed good, Corned Beef.
• Does Corned Beef Really Have Corn?
Corning is a form of curing; it has nothing to do with corn. The name comes from Anglo-Saxon times before refrigeration. In those days, the meat was dry-cured in coarse "corns" of salt. Pellets of salt, some the size of kernels of corn, were rubbed into the beef to keep it from spoiling and to preserve it.
• Why Cornbip?
Cornbip is a common item found in many household pantries. It's a relatively inexpensive, quick meal to serve and can be cooked in several ways that can satisfy anyone's hunger.
Although this site doesn't really have anything to do with food nor cooking, I have chosen this domain name because its contents are best served to an audience with an unfussy appetite for an eclectic mix of photos and writings.
