BAGNET FESTIVAL

Held every December, Narvacan is banking on the town’s culinary past to bring in more domestic and foreign tourist and reclaiming its position as the birthplace of bagnet, that delicacy that is a craze all over Ilocandia and to gourmands. Every Narvacan household still holds the secret to the special technique of preparing the crispiest and tastiest bagnet that has eluded the gastronomic inclinations of other Ilocano foodies which are also into bagnet production.

NEXT time you pass by Ilocos Sur, be sure to stop by Narvacan town.  It will be a heart-stopping visit, as the town proudly entices its residents and visitors alike to buy, eat and take home its signature product, bagnet.

Bagnet is deep-fried pork belly, fried till the skin crackles. It is eaten with rice as viand or eaten when drinking basi (wine fermented from sugarcane juice), beer or gin. It is a popular Ilocano creation, served also as topping to the popular Ilocano dish pinakbet.

The Bagnet Festival is among the most overlooked festivals in the North. Many want it that way, because traffic is still manageable and bagnet can still be enjoyed with gusto.  Read More:  https://businessmirror.com.ph/narvacan-ilocos-surs-bagnet-festival/

Talking about Bagnet, that deep-fried pork thingie that is a consistent suspect to the swine depopulation scheme (blah blah), one may just think about the Bagnet found in the four corners of the world… I mean the world heritage city of Vigan. But hey, there is a bagnet town 40 minutes away from Vigan called Narvacan that [really] produces great Bagnet. 
 
So what now? The Bagnet craze has invaded the streets through that Bagnet Festival street dancing which was celebrated December 15, 2012. So now, I won’t talk too much. I’m gonna shut my big full-mouth off because I will overdo this post with a lot of [trashy] photos. Sorry for the hideous color and resolution of the photos.  Read More:  http://www.edmaration.com/2012/12/bagnet-festival-of-narvacan-bagnet-town.html
