Sinigang 1.0
Mouth-puckeringly sour soup made completely from scratch.
Bulalo: a hangover cure?
As it turns out, bone broth is filled with a whole bunch of vitamins and minerals to replenish your body, it hydrates with its savoury healing water and is filled with gelatin that supports healthy digestion. It's soupy goodness.
Bulalo 1.0
Bulalo translates to bone marrow. It dates to pre-colonial Philippines, simple cooking at a low, slow boil. Here's how my family develops deep, deep flavour, featuring the controversial carrot.
Adobo: should we be calling it kilaw?
Post-colonial Spain we had 'adobo', while pre-colonial we had 'kilaw'. With every subo you're tasing a subtext of culture - centuries of interpretation, indigenisation of new ingredients and ongoing celebration of vinegar.
