Thanks, Mom — your homecooked meals gave me the idea for this yummy sandwich! This is a riff on my mother Vicki’s delicious embutido — a Filipino ground pork meatloaf with hard-boiled eggs and green olives layered inside it. Some Pinoys use raisins, but I really hate raisins in meat, and luckily, Mom never added […]
