My Mom makes this PERFECTLY back home. I’ve not come across anything 1/10 as good in New York.

Food looks fire. I've kinda found its much easier to learn cooking by not measuring things. Its certainly a necessity for certain cases particularly baking. But for the average home cook stuff like stews, stir fry, and fried foods there's more freedom to explore your own palate vs different flavors and how all of it comes together. And I think it's especially valuable to learn how to improvise and adjust for different situations like when ingredients aren't available. Substitute x for y for similar flavors and the like.

Yum😊

As a black person i can confirm this is true for us as well

[@ivanmagnusmartinez78]

Great, now I'm craving for some kare-kare 🤤

[@animelover-pg2lx]

🤤🤤🤤🤤 kare kare!!

[@lorahanks2229]

I've noticed a lot of Filipino dishes use peanuts. I don't have anything against them but it seems that the popular dishes that I get shown see to have them a lot. Ive thought about tweaking the dish because they're okay but I only really enjoy boiled peanuts. And maybe a pbj once a blue moon.

When you ask how much seasoning to add, they say "a little bit". And when you add a little bit they say "add more"

[@konnilol4]

As a European, as white as they come, I have to agree that you just cook and add stuff until it's right... Also... Rinse your rice.

He browned and pounded the rice to use as a thickener. That's why he didn't wash it.

[@MomshieJC]

True.. i cook by feeling not with measurement 😅

[@Knightowl1980]

[@Xiaomaoi]

[@hermittroglodyte5547]

My fave ulam. 🤤🤤🤤

[@jdhuergula1000]

So yummy 😍😍🤤🤤

[@tommywayneee]

I think one of the reason why we dont have a standard measurement is because everyone has preference. For example, sinigang is noy the same everywhere as some households like it more sour than the others.

Great meal and do true. Great video.

[@i.ghoost]

Filipino fathers cook way better than moms maybe because mas generous sila in terms of spices and yep they don't use measuring tools. Sorry Ma!

[@jhingtoffee8072]

Sarap❤

[@waterisgold]

Ur dad is cool

[@kinglee8830]

Bro, my grandparents, grandma and her grandparents do the same thing

[@heland2228]

I don't measure either and sometimes don't taste it until the end.

[@KayeMusume]

You’ll get more color out of anatto seeds if you fry it for a bit in oil.

[@enne4598]

Yup...that's why if I would cook adobo every day, it would taste differently each time😂

[@EchoLog]

Nervous cooking? You're craving something you ain't had in forever. "When your ancestors tell you to": Yep, I know what that means. 😂

[@myrnawinters4573]

I only measure when I’m baking

[@maestrosvtcarat]

Lol i count by pointing them one by one

[@wunlee1512]

Friends often ask for my recipes and always struggle to give them a good answer hahaha. The recipes usually consist of a bunch of guesswork and maybe a missing ingredient or two, or some extra suggestions depending on their personal taste lol

[@ellawright8691]

now I'm hungry :(

[@ArohaStill]

Kare kare is the only Indian inspired dish in Philippines cuisine and my favourite.

[@pumpkinpatch5609]

Really?

[@icyshoyru6275]

It's not. The word curry does not exist in India and the sauce is far from curry. It's from Mexico. There's a dish in Mexico called lomo encachuatada which is exactly the same as Kare kare.
