Guimaras' "tultul"

A lot of you may know Guimaras has beautiful beaches and beautiful spots perfect for unwinding and taking off. But there are still hidden features you may not know about this beautiful island.

Little only know that the island Guimaras also produces "tultul", a brick-like kind of salt.

The process of making tultul begins with the gathering of sacks full of dagsa, an assortment of reeds, twigs and small pieces of bamboo carried to the shore by the sea tide. These materials have been soaked in seawater for some time already. The gathered dagsa is then burned in large quantities while continually being doused with salt water on a daily basis. This step alone takes five days to accomplish.

As soon as there is enough quantity of ashes, they are collected and put inside two large kaing or bamboo containers put on an elevated platform. Seawater is then poured on the first kaing to wash down the salt from the ashes. The strained water that is caught below by a pail is poured on the second kaing and the process is repeated where the strained water is caught below.

The next step involves a hurnohan or cooking pan made out of large cooking oil tin containers. The hurnohan is composed of five rectangular containers measuring 3"x12"x14". The strained water is poured into the five containers arranged in such a way that there is fire below each of the container. While the cooking goes on small amount of the strained water from the kaing is continuously added to the container. This goes on for five hours until finally moisture from the solidified salt has completely evaporated and the finished product is left on the pan.

The finished tultul is called a bareta that weighs about twelve kilos. Tultul is heavy because it is too compact due to the long hours of cooking. The bareta is then cut sidewise and crosswise into fifty hiwa or cuts.
