In this article, I have taken few Filipino dishes that you can try making in your own kitchen. The instructions given here will guide you to find out the essence of Filipino cooking. Just experiment some new cooking experince to spend quality time with your family and friends.

Igado: this is a famous recipe from North Philippines which is made from pork tenderloin and pig's innards like liver and heart. While making the igado, it is very important that the ingredients such as liver and heart should be clean. If you are using the kidneys, then you need to soak it in water with salt for at least 10 minutes after you slice them in order to reduce the odor.

Bulalo: it is light colored soup which is made by cooking beef shanks and beef marrow ones for hours. Seasoning plays the key role in the making bulalo. You can use patis, bay leaves or even garlic along with the salt and pepper. Bulalo is a simple cattleman's stew, best made in a large cauldron with whatever vegetables are growing near by.

Dinengdeng: being a famous Ilocano dish, it primarily consists of vegetables like jute leaves, the leaves of the horseradish tree, fruits of the bitter melon, amaranth leaves, sweet potato tubers as well as leaves, mushrooms like oyster mushrooms and wild potatoes.

Insarabasab: it has been originated from the Province of Ilocos and is a traditional Filipino recipe. While preparing the dish, pork has to be roasted on open fire until the pink color of the meat gets removed.

Pinipig Crunch: it is very similar to puffed rice or rice krispies- something similar to what we get in a bar of Nestle Crunch. It is prepared from a exclusive kind of rice.
