>Pancit
Pretty good, just a flip stir fry with vermicelli noodles.
>Adobo chicken
The real winner. Take some raw chicken thighs, salt and pepper them, then fry them with oil on both sides until the skin is brown and a little crispy, very high heat(don't do this shirtless ya Dingus).
Next chop an onion however you want, I usually cut in half and then slice it, diced works too. Take some of your oil and cook your onions until clear, add some garlic while you do this. Then add equal parts vinegar, soy sauce, and water along with your chicken, almost enough to submerge them. Bring that shit to a boil, throw in some bay leaves and sugar and let it simmer for a while, 30-60 mins. Make sure to periodically open it and pour sauce over the chicken. Serve with rice and put some sauce on the rice, wah wah.
Use flip vinegar and soy sauce like the brand in OPs post, otherwise use low sodium soy or it's going to be too salty, alternatively add more water. Taste test and play with the flavours, add more sugar, soya, or vinegar depending on your palate. I always add a bit more soy than vinegar.
Bonus if you use leftover sauce for fried rice.

Real fucking good.
I made filipino friends while working in London and one of them is a chef. He almost only cooks filipino food and its delicious.
My favorite recipe is pork adobo with rice and there's a good recipe by Kuya Fern on Youtube if you're interested.

i am thinking of making adobo soon since it doesnt seem too hard and i really want to use this cool vinegar, thanks for the tips. it'll be nice to practice with my wok on something that isnt the same chinese dishes.

some asian ingredients can be challenging for sure.
>>22053262
that's kind of subjective, isnt it? if the dish tastes good and balanced then it is what it is. i find that some of my chinese dishes actually seem less salty than western dishes like chili or something. they just get most of the sodium from soy sauce instead of salt.

Flipanon here. I don't understand the crave around anchovy sauce (ginamos) either. In my household, we use it as an additive for vinegar meant for dipping, not as a compliment or a dish. Usually, we make it alongside bulad (fried sundried anchovies or smaller fishes). Don't let that stop you from trying out other dishes. Just avoid the obviously putrid ones like pig's blood or anything that's out of ordinary.

Yeah, we do. It's somewhat similar to inasal but sweeter. People still have preferences towards inasal tho.
>>22053262
Particularly true. Filipino food is pretty umami-centered. Obviously salt and soy sauce are going to be the primary things they'll be tossing around. Bland food is considered horrific in here. You'll just have to get used to it.

>>22053550
why do you have so many types of spicy vinegar and are they all used for different things or is it just personal preference and people use the one they like for everything? the Asian market near me seriously has a whole half aisle dedicated to vinegar
>>
>>22053560
Oftentimes the variety only fit certain kind sof foods, but most cases they fit very well with foods that are fried and grilled. There are vinegars meant for cooking and some serving as dipping sauces.

interesting.. i am reading about sawsawan and how dishes are often served with several different condiments. i like that style. i will have to get some calamansi and many other things..
>>22054227
thank you for your insight.. many of these dishes have unfamiliar ingredients but they look pretty good. i kind of like bitter melon but I've never had it prepared as in pinakbet.
