the older woman knew what they were talking about the young girl needs more time to be seasoned . Joyce could have won but chantell gave her a 5

[@cloroxbitch2491]

Ikr, only because it was spicy. She should’ve rated the taste itself. There are some foods that taste amazing and I’d give 10/10 even though it’s spicy.

[@xhosagibran370]

To be fair Joyce also gave her a 5 so…

[@repapips8774]

yeah i agree.. they young girl has her own way of adobo the 3 older ladies did it pretty well. however, just my take on it. 1. the egg should have been marinated with the adobo sauce. (should be brownish in color, not white). 2. i don't put carrots. if they want to add veggies maybe use sitaw(long bean). 3. the chicken is fine (not to be cut into little pieces). 4. i don't really drown my rice with adobo sauce, more of just coating it. so having the sabaw (soup) is not really a necessity for me when it comes to adobo. the older 3 ladies know their adobo pretty well. 🍻👍

Yeah she judged the food base on her not liking the chili lol. Judge the food base on what you think how it turns out as adobo regardless of the spice level u cn only handle ahaha

When I was in college, there was a Filipino girl who lived in the same dorm hall as me. On her birthday her mother came to visit and made pork adobo with cabbage and rice for the entire hall. Not only did she bring enough for dinner, but there was enough for all of us to take 3 nights worth of leftovers. It was seriously one of the most generous things i ever experienced. I’ve been in love with Filipino food ever since and adobo in particular warms my soul every time.

[@eduardochavacano]

But in the Philippines nobody really eats Adobo on special occassions or restaurants. its just hype on social media.

[@CMGC___]

@@eduardochavacano MISMO! When i see filipino food online it’s always “lechon, adobo, lumpia, ube, and halohalo” which i think is a good introduction but i’m trying to see filipinos show more special/regional dishes or their interpretations.

[@nrwhl_hsky]

For those who don’t know, adobo comes in many form: soupy, dry, w/ bay leaves, w/out bay leaves, chicken, pork, long beans, water spinach, etc. There’s even a variant called “adobong puti” (puti = white). Instead of a soy sauce and vinegar base, only vinegar is used, which makes it white. That being said, I don’t think I’ve ever seen carrots in an adobo. I guess you can compare it to pinapples on pizza. I’m not saying that it’s bad, just that it’s not traditional. No one in the Philippines would put carrots in their adobo!

[@puapucuve6643]

How many people would cook it in a slow cooker too? She really white washed the dish.

[@xoxcelestee]

i wouldn’t say that no one in the Philippines doesn’t put carrots . where i’m from we use carrots . i prefer with carrots tbh

[@duckduckgoose3496]

[@hypotheticaltapeworm]

My mom is a Nicaraguan woman and married a Filipino man. He taught her how to make a variety of dishes: kare kare, pancit, kilawin, but my favorite growing up was her adobo. She would broil the chicken in loads of soy and used lemon in place of most of the vinegar. It was intensely salty and sour but it made the rice absolutely beautiful. It impressed my stepdad's sibling, who would put their own spins on it, one of his brothers added mustard even.

[@leylanigaitan4141]

🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮

[@SenseiWuzi]

I'm very interested in this Mustard Variant. What type of mustard was it? A wholegrain type or not? Did it work well?

[@hypotheticaltapeworm]

@@SenseiWuzi Unsure, I was young when he made it while visiting the US, although I imagine it was more granular than your average "yellow" mustard. It wasn't at all a dominant flavor, probably just used to substitute some vinegar and add some flavor. Probably less than a spoonful of that mustard went in there.

[@soph3273]

Please teach me, I’m a white washed Filipina and my mom never taught me LOL

[@hypotheticaltapeworm]

@@soph3273 Pancit is probably the easiest of those dishes I mentioned. Basically you cook up vegetables. I like: onion, snow peas, mushroom, carrot, and cabbage. You could also cook up some chicken thigh too. Boil up some short rice noodles and add that into the pan you've fried everything else in and season with garlic and soy sauce until everything is pretty well-coated.

[@pauledward11378]

I love how supportive and non bitchy these ladies were. Also, adobo can be cooked stewy or dry. I tend to like mine on the dry side with a some spicy coconut dip on the side.

[@JulieNguyenYoga]

Everyone’s dish looked soo good. Glad Mae won though!

[@FoodwithMae]

Thank you so much 💜💜

[@biggdogg6196]

By and large they were fair to each other, no suspiciously low marks, but as all the dishes were so different, and they all liked different aspects, I am actually still not sure what adobo is!

[@l0vbeuty]

It’s just meat(typically chicken or pork) cooked with spices like black pepper corn, bay leaf, etc. and lots of soy sauce, sugar, and vinegar.

[@SenseiWuzi]

I've once heard someone remark that Adobo is more of a cooking technique than a specific recipe as the variants can vary by quite a bit and will depend on the region and family preference. The important ingredients are Soy Sauce, Sugar, Vinegar, Bay Leaf and Pepper Corn. The ratios on this vary a lot. I personally prefer mine with a very viscous sauce. 2 part vinegar to 1 part soy. Very little sugar if any. I like pepper in mine but I don't like the whole peppercorns so I prefer to grind before putting it in. Sometimes I'll put Coconut milk in too which is common in certain parts of the Philippines. I've seen someone mention something in regards to Chili Con Carne that I think applies well to Adobo. "There's a thousand different ways and recipes that Chili is made. But once you've tasted it you know it's a Chili."

[@opwave79]

Agree! Filipino adobo is more a cooking technique than a dish. It’s basically “speed braising”., with flavor. The soy sauce and vinegar tenderize the meat so you don’t have to simmer it for ages.

[@mandiferrer]

@@SenseiWuzi not to forget garlic, garlic, and more garlic 😁

[@guido6006]

Not sure if it's just because they're Filo-British too (a lot more polite) but the US version usually had people who make unnecessary comments lol. I like this. I like the positive vibe.

[@2brokenthumbs]

Such lovely and honest ladies. They all gave positive reviews and generally liked each other’s dishes.

[@kdd9534]

Yes to peppercorns, bay leaf and plenty of sauce. Nice to see them compliment each other’s dish.

[@alherx999]

and garlic as well

[@socringe2217]

i still dont get why you would put a whole peppercorn rather than at the very least cracking them up in the mortar and pestle. unless you cook the adobo for hours which is unusual, the peppercorn are just a bother.

[@jtee788]

They’re so much more complementary of each other than people are in most of these videos. Nicest people in the world.

[@naomori4262]

I really like Mae and I'm happy she won, she only said good things about the other ladies' adobos and I appreciate that. I never had adobo with chicken and pork together tho but that's something I'm definitely gonna try. I think Analiza's adobo is the one closest to how I'd make it for others (super reduced) but I'd probably let the egg sit in the sauce for a bit to cure it and also have more sauce on it

[@ilye0sm]

No but I'm gonna need everyone in these comments to try adding soft boiled/jammy eggs to your adobo, it's life changing

“If the family loves it, that’s all that matters”. TRUTH!! My family only makes chicken (bone in y’all!) or squid (with the ink, people!). No pork. Then we add garlic and black peppercorns to the usual ingredients, and have lots of sabaw. Because you need sabaw to coat the rice.

@@iLoveBoysandBerries nah man, when something’s perfect the way it is, you don’t mess with it. Brown meat on all sides in batches and set aside. Sweat onion in the pork drippings, add garlic and add the pork back in, stir in the soy sauce and vinegar, add the peppercorns and bay leaves, add water, bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low, simmer with lid on 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes so that the pork fat rises above the sauce. Skim the fat from the top and place back on heat, bring back to a simmer and stir in equal parts cornstarch dissolved in water until desired gravy consistency is reached. I find 2tbsp cornstarch to 2tbsp water makes the perfect slurry. Serve over jasmine rice.

[@jaylianenelymdelarosa3894]

Actually, adobo is a technique in cooking. It came from the Spanish word "adobar" which means to marinate. Traditionally adobo has a more salty and vinegary taste to it because of the use of vinegar and salt to marinate the meat which during the Spanish era is common to store the meat, but nowadays adobo is sweeter than the usual I think it is because every home has its own variation to it. And I just wanted to add that there is a lot of adobo version, there is "adobong puti" which is white because the soup doesn't have soy sauce in it, and there is also "adobong tuyo" which is dry adobo it is because they simmer it until the soup evaporated and the fat of the pork is the only thing that is left, there is also "adobong dilaw (yellow adobo)", "adobo sa gata (adobo in coconut milk)" and many more. There are also adobo dishes for vegetables. To be honest Chantelle's dish looks like Menudo to me, especially the way she cut the pork and the size of it seems like Menudo, you just have to put liver spread, tomato sauce and paste, potatos, green peas, hotdogs, etc.

It’s so weird hearing a Filipino with a British accent. Then I realised I’m also a Filipino with a British accent since I grew up in the UK lmao

I love how they were all pretty polite to each other’s dish except the young girl was more judgmental🤷🏽‍♀️ in some of these episodes the women like tear each other down but they were all really nice and complimented everyone’s food. Love that 🖤
