A First-timer's Guide: How to Cook Tiyula Itum (Black Stew)



I have always wanted to learn how to prepare my favorite dishes, and I especially love Muslim Cuisine. Last Saturday was Eid'l al-Adha (Feast of the Sacrifice,) my brother-in-law's brother brought some (raw) beef that came from a local Turkish school whose tradition was to put down a number of calves for the occasion and give the meat away.

An idea popped into my head!

I researched for the recipe, and found one on YouTube. The thing is, the guy in the video spoke fluent Tausug, though I understood most of what he said, there were some words I just could not get.

Nevertheless, my first attempt at cooking one of my favorite dishes, TIYULA ITUM, was a success!
(at least my family said so. =) )
