New normal shoot

For the first fresh episode of Pinas Sarap, Kara and her team explored the amazing foods that the Marikina City has to offer. It was shot before Typhoon Ulysses wreaked havoc in Luzon.

“Sa Marikina po yung una naming episode. Pagtapos po naming kumain ng masasarap na pagkain, nagbisikleta po ako para ma-burn ko 'yung calories.”

According to Kara, riding her bike is also part of the safety measures they followed during their shoot.

“Para po mas ligtas, nagbisikleta po ako going from one place to another. Kasi siyempre (may) social distancing kapag naka-bisikleta.”

Aside from that, they also observed basic safety protocols for shoots during the "new normal."

“('Yung) safety measures na ginawa namin ay naka-social distancing kami, tapos naka-mask at face shield kapag nagluluto. Tapos 'pag mga spiels, talagang crowd control.”

New segments and new recipes

Kara also shared with the Kapuso Brigade members all the exciting things they must watch for in the upcoming fresh episodes of Pinas Sarap.

She revealed that there are two new Pinas Sarap segments called 'Ka-sarap' and 'Deliver-eat.'

“'Yung 'Ka-sarap,' ito yung ako mismo magluluto. Walang chef. Ako lang mismo. Ituturo ko lang sa inyo 'yung mga recipes na alam ko. Tapos shinu-shoot 'yon dito sa bahay.

“Tapos 'yung isa naman, magfi-feature kami ng isang sikat na nagdedeliver ng pagkain--online food business-- (tapos) titikman ko kung masarap ba ito o hindi.”

Kara also teased about a Filipino Christmas recipe that they will feature soon, which is loaded with all sorts of meat.

“Actually, 'yung susunod naming episode, mayroon akong espesyal na klase ng nilaga na iluluto.

"Itong klase ng nilaga na 'to ay meron siyang chicken, meron siyang pork, meron siyang beef, meron siyang chorizo, at meron siyang ham. Lahat ng maisip mong karne, nandoon na.

“Ito ang usually handa namin 'pag Pasko at fiesta sa amin sa Pampanga. Nagpapa-nilaga kami nang bonggang-bongga… na lahat ng karne na nasa isip mo na nilaga.

“So, ishe-share ko yung recipe na 'yon sa Pinas Sarap. 'Di ba bongga? May chorizo, may ham, may pork at tsaka may beef. Lahat na!”

Message for loyal viewers and the Kapuso Brigade

During the ZOOMustahan event, Kara also took the time to thank all her loyal Pinas Sarap viewers who continued supporting the show during the lockdown.

“Naku, mga Kapuso, alam ko pong na-miss n'yo ang Pinas Sarap.

“Pero nagbabalik na po kami at makakaasa po kayo na hindi lang kami magfi-feature ng mga sobrang sarap na mga pagkain, ipapakita rin po namin sa inyo at ikukuwento rin po namin sa inyo ang kasasayan at kultura ng mga pagkaing ito.

“Kasi mas masarap kumain kapag alam mo 'yung pinagmulan ng iyong kinakain, 'di ba?”
