Udang is what we refer to freshwater shrimps. The shrimp is favorite
of all the shrimp because its best when added as ingredient to dinengdeng
when this is fried, but it can also be good to other dishes like in coconut
milk.
The shrimp catch when they grow more than half inch. But the best of
udang when its grown up to 3 inches. During this time the shrimp is so red
when cook and the meat is meaner and firm compared to the shrimp from

 BRIEF HISTORY

Barangay Boy-utan is one of the farthest barangay in

the Municipality of Bauang. One reaches it through a
provincial road connected from the National Highway just
across the Bauang Bridge on the southern bank of Bauang
River. It is a progressive community due to the cooperative
efforts of the community people.
The name Boy-utan according to old folks of the
barangay came from the word “Utan” which in Visayan
language is vegetable. In a story, about seven boys who were
the first descendants of the said barangay were famous in
planting vegetables during Spanish time. It came to a legend
that the place then came from the word Boy-utan in memory
of the seven boys recorded as the first descendants of the
place.
