CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

In today’s world, innovation of products merged in different places. Producers and

manufacturers always look for new products that can be introduce to the market, processed foods
like hotdogs, tocino, longganisa and the like into innovations.
Longganisa are choritos that originated from spain and a type of sausage that is flavoured
depending on the local spices. Though longganisa did not originate in the Philippines, Filipino’s have
developed quite an interest to the dish and developed a variety of flavours depending on where it
came from. Infact, Vigan, Ilocos Sur, Lucban, Quezon, Pampanga and many other are some places
where they own their own longganisa product. Traditionally longganisa is made from ground pork
and dice pork fat, whether for health, ethical, environmental reasons. Yet this food product have
higher levels of salt and fats and preservatives like mitrates that can cause obesity for children if
they intake too much.
On the other hand, milkfish (bangus) have a generally symmetrical and streamline
appearances and sizeable for cani dalfin. It is extremely (bony) fish. Its white meat has mild flavour
that makes the fish good for a variety of cooking. As it is presented it was a good substitute for pork
and good for consumption. For regular consumption, Bangus longganisa can prevent deficiencies
and help the growth of the nervous system and brain development. Lastly it can reduce the risk of
hypertension.
Buguey is a coastal municipality in the province of Cagayan. The municipality has a land area
of 16450 square kilometres or 63.51 square miles without constitutes 1.77% of Cagayan's total area.
It's represented 2.52% of the total population of the Cagayan Valley region. Based on these figures
the population density is computed at 183 in habitants per square kilometre or 475 in habitants per
square miles. Buguey, also known as a Crab Capital, is one of the major aquaculture areas in Region
2. The town has on code areas of brackish water fish ponds, and also a vibrant fish cage industry
within the Buguey lagoon (Pressreader.2019). Species cultured are siganids, bangus, tilapia,
talakitok, and snapper. Also present are oyster, which thrive naturally within the lagoon.

Milkfish is locally available in Buguey because Buguey is surrounded in water. Milkfish is a popular
fish in Southeast Asia. Bandeng or bangus are the common names of milkfish that is a silver-colored
Pacific salt-water fish that lays its eggs in shallow coastal waters and can with stand low-salinity
water. Milkfish is rich in essential nutrients for brain function, muscle strength and bone growth. It
is also a good source of Vitamin B6, Phosphorous and very good source of Protein, Niacin and
VitaminB12 Isoleucine Rich in Omega 3 fatty acids and goodsource of Protein. With this, the study
aims to produce a longganisa product with bangus as the main ingredient to add new flavour to the
typical longganisa.

Longganisa is considered to be one of the processed food of the Filipino meals uses meat like pork and
chicken that requires many preservatives like monosodium glutamate and salitre.

As input we researchers had an idea to construct and formulate of other variety using milkfish that
can possibly substitute meat to avoid negative effects that can contribute to the body. We provide

pepper that can prolong its shelf life.

Bangus longganisa is the final product of this study that can be essential for the costumers wellness
and give nutritional benefits.

Statement of the Problem

CHAPTER II

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

Longganiza or longganisa are chorizos that originated from Spain and a type of sausage that is flavored
depending on the local spices used in the region. It is considered as a popular cuisine for Mexicans and
Latin Americans as well as for Filipinos that had adopted some of their culture (Henares, 2009). Longganisa
is a Philippine version of the Spanish sausage called Longganisa, it is a breakfast staple in Filipino homes.
(Balido, 2016).According to Jose Ma. Lorenzo Tan, Longganisa traces its roots to Spain, where Longganisa
is a long, pork sausage seasoned with paprika, cinnamon, aniseed, garlic and vinegar. It is sold fresh and
must be cooked. Unfortunately, World Health Organization (WHO) officially said that these types of
processed food can cause cancer. WHO’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), in a report
released in the Lancet medical journal, says that many studies show the links between cancer and the
consumption of hot dog, bacon, red meat and processed pork, beef and lamb. “These findings further
support current Public health recommendations to limit intake of meat,” Dr. Christopher Wild, who Directs
IARC, said in a statement. (Pinoy,2016). Thompson(2017) explained that there are also disadvantage in
eating pork. People can have different diseases and health risks. Some of this are Viral Diseases,
Roundworm Infestation and Heart Disease Risk. Intake of pork and other processed food can trigger
different kinds of diseases. As a solution Parson,2017 find ways to make vegetables as a substitute for
meat.

Bangus is the national fish of Philippines, called milkfish in English. It is an adaptable, tough, and sturdy fish
that can survive in confined spaces, so it is regularly bred on fish farms, which is the reason why it is widely
available all over the Philippines. The flavor of milkfish is distinctive and mild, best paired with
complementary ingredients. Bangus is usually cooked in soups, fried, grilled, barbecued, stuffed or stewed
in various spices, ginger and vinegar, but the varieties of bangus-based dishes are numerous.
Milkfish aquaculture first occurred around 1800 years ago in the Philippines and spread to Indonesia,
Taiwan, and into the Pacific. Traditional milkfish aquaculture relied upon restocking ponds by
collecting wild fry. This led to a wide range of variability in quality and quantity between seasons and
regions.
