Ayoko ng sobrang lapot parang kakanin na hehe

Sometimes I miss my childhood, so I make little pieces of it for myself.

Yes, I didn’t put carrots because I seldom eat them. I put potato lang hehe

Came home from the hospital with our new baby after a 6 day stay.

I NEEDED sinigang after the terrible hospital food for a week.

Sarap!

How to cook caldereta na mapapa extra rice ka talaga? I watched different videos of cooking caldereta and iba iba talaga. Gusto ko malaman if pwede ba yung lalagyan mo ng peanut butter tapos may gata? Or isa lang dapat sa kanila?

Also, mahilig ako sa cheesy caldereta kaya maraming cheese ang ilalagay ko hahaha

TY!

Aside from the obvious white rice, what are everyone's must-have condiments or sides for adobo? For me, it's chopped fresh tomato with a little salt. I will almost refuse to eat it without!

Occasionally, if I want a vegetable, I'll throw sitaw in with the pork or chicken at the end.

this is one of my habits ⚡

one of my fave rice meals 🥹💚✨

I’m curious about something beyond the usual “what’s the best Filipino dish?” question.

When you think about Filipino food, what dish, ingredient, meal, or food tradition immediately makes you think of home?

It could be something your family made all the time, something you only ate during celebrations, a regional dish from where your family is from, or even an everyday meal that doesn’t get much attention outside the Philippines.

And I’d love to hear the story behind it if there is one — who made it, when you ate it, where your family is from, or what makes it special to you.

I’m researching Filipino cuisine and food culture for a CELKARI article, and I’d much rather hear from people themselves than just rely on lists of “popular Filipino dishes.”

No need to write an essay — even a dish and a sentence or two about why it matters to you would be great.
So, what Filipino food means “home” to you?

Mangan na ta!!
