One very common example is Worcestershire sauce. It is a key part of the recipe.

Loved much of the other food she cooked, but struggled with the sourness of the soup. Now it is a regular on-the-table comfort food for us. I prefer the pork ribs version, but Mrs. Rick likes the salmon belly/heads one so that is what we get most of the time. ❤❤❤❤ As a note, country-style pork ribs are great, and sized perfectly out of the package for the soup.

Any pork cut works, but I think most households use pork butt, pork shoulder, Boston butt or similar. I have never enjoyed pork ribs as it was usually served with boneless pork in restaurants.

I don’t favor Fish soup but…….. salmon collar or salmon belly is a delish sinigang..

FOB is on my list, whenever I can make it to Oakland. Hope she opens a FOB 2 in the peninsula or south bay.

While I appreciate the representation, Cook’s Country should’ve sought the stories of an Auntie for a more accurate dish. Sinigang DOESN’T HAVE GINGER, (HAIYAA!!! )which is a very strong flavor component that interferes with the flavor of GREEN (raw) TAMARIND. The tamarind used was wrong, which is sweet. We use green tamarind which is sour. Filipinos have perfected it with Sinigang packets readily available in Asian stores. There’s no shame in using it. Keep the sweet tamarind for making drinks and Pad Thai. Use spinach bunch in place of water spinach ( morning glory or kang kong) and definitely not bok choy! That’s for Nilaga and Kare Kare! Now everyone’s going to make it and think this is how we make Sinigang (HAIYAA!!!) Cook’s Country, you’ve made Jaime Oliver and Rachael Ray proud!

Tasty sure, but definitely not the sinigang all Filipinos eat.

Using ripe sweet tamarind or sweet tamarind paste is a more a Thai thing, but it's understandable given the rarity of young unripe tamarinds even in the Philippines. This is also why we just use instant sinigang powder because doing it the traditional way is no longer feasible. As for the ribs, we actually use what we call "sinigang ribs" or the riblets near the upper part towards the shoulder with a bit more cartilage. The long simmering of the cartilage is also what helps give that sticky, gelatinous mouthfeel to long simmered sinigang, similar to a tonkotsu broth.
Thai chilis are also too strong for this. Filipino light green "banana chilis" are closer in flavor and heat to green peperoncinos.
Ginger in sinigang is also… no. That's for tinola. Not sinigang. Also no calamansi in sinigang.

I use kale because this is the only way Kale taste good to me. Okra is a must and so is tomatoes. I’ve always used the packets because I’m lazy but now I have to try this recipe, ironic that I’m learning it from Americans but my family elders have all passed now.

No matter where we are in this country, FOB is a standard we’ve all used to demean our family members who got here from the motherland. Now that I’m older, rather than be embarrassed for what that name means, I’ve embraced it. Great episode.
