A can of Ligo's green sardines in tomato sauce is a mouth - watering delight for Filipinos. Some love to eat it straight from the can, enjoying the fresh and zesty flavor. Others use it to make a scrumptious egg omelet. A popular recipe also includes a sardine soup with vegetables and noodles. Liberty Gold, founded by Ezra Battat from Europe who went to the USA in the 1930s, started as Liberty Gold Fruit Company. It supplied high - quality fruits and vegetables from California at fair prices to overseas consumers. In the Philippines, A. Tung Chingco Manufacturing Corporation, a canned sardine pioneer, carries the LIGO brand.

Using these Ligo sardines is easy. You can open the can and eat the sardines right away, or use them in cooking. For an omelet, just mix the sardines with beaten eggs and cook as usual. For the soup, add the sardines, vegetables, and noodles to boiling water. When opening the can, be careful of the sharp edges. Store any unused sardines in a sealed container in the fridge and consume within a couple of days. Keep the cans in a cool, dry place to maintain their quality.
