Filipino Food 101 with Jo Koy | Sean in the Wild

Eating with Jo Koy is a lot like seeing his stand-up routine: loud, in your face, and filled with stories about his eccentric Filipino family. When it came time for Sean Evans to dive head first into the menu at Jeepney Filipino Gastropub in NYC, the choice for a dinner companion was a no-brainer. From staples like chicken adobo and arroz caldo, to now-legendary dishes like halo-halo and balut, Jo breaks down the Filipino food dos and don’ts as only he could. Will Sean convince Jo to give balut another shot, or will he swear off bird embryos for ever? Find out on an all new SITW.

My husband's uncle is Filipino, When We went to visit for 2 weeks in California, I couldn't walk through the kitchen without him forcing me to eat, amd I don't mean snacks, he would make me eat a full plate...lol I tried tp refuse amd he looked at me disappointed and said, but I made it for you so I sat down and ate everythinghe made...He made gallon freezer bags full of homemade lumpia for us to take home. I am not joking when I say they are food crack super addictive and you can't stop at 1. He was so loving, I wish I had been able to see him again before he passed away Rest in Peace Uncle Bill 💖😘...

The spoon and fork thing is becoming part of Filipino identity. I literally thought before that the rest of the world also use spoon and fork, I mean every Filipino household before had this giant wooden spoon and fork, and last supper painting or embroidery hanging on their dinning room's wall.

[@andoylanggid]

History and culture, man. Like our sheer, see-through Barong shirt worn tuck out that becomes our men's formal national wear. The pinoy like other east asian culture, only more so, has a deep and extensive blade (sword) culture. You can see that on the varieties of swords and weapons available throughout the archipelago. Pinoy martial art is not fancy but extremely deadly. So the Spanish or the Kastila whenever they have pinoy guests for dinner dont issue knives. Only spoon and fork. They were afraid that the feast might turn into a massacre. Same with the Barong shirt. Its sheer and worn tuck out so no weapons could be hidden underneath. Its a tribute to our sense of humor that we turn these blatant insults and forms of discrimination into our identity and sense of pride in who we are as a people. Crazy really.

[@ryanbeltran9413]

As a Filipino American, for me I think local joints aren’t great. Filipino food is amazing when down right. For me none of the local joints in my area best my dads cooking. When Filipino is cooked with great cooks like in restaurants like in this video I think it could get more respect. People say it’s super unhealthy but I don’t think it’s different than any Asian food and American. There is also healthy varieties in fruits And fresh fish. I wouldn’t say its better than Chinese or Korean food but definitely not shit.

[@jsbgarcia]

Glad you like our food. Kain tayo! :)

well, you can actually ask for a balut sa puti which has a smaller duck/embryo and softer yet chewy white nugget

[@CrecencioICruz]

adobo has a number of varieties depending on the meat used - the basic and must the meat is stewed in mix of soy, vinegar and lots of garlic. As for the "meat", you can have pork, chicken, squid or a mix; can also have deep fried tofu as extender. to add some kick, chili flakes can do the trick. a sweet and sour variety can be achieved by adding pineapple bits. there are a lot of ways to cook and enjoy adobo.

Awesome information and wonderful details. Great job.

I just love what he said more or less "when you go into a house, we don't care if you're full, you're about to get more full". This made me chuckle because this is so true.

[@immortal2326]

Balot is normally eaten at night time and should be eaten with salt and few drops spicy vinegar, and a ice cold 🍺 beer😋

[@micro-babe]

TBH all of our food tastes better with an ice cold beer. Or at least an ice cold coke.

Love Filipino food. I was in the navy and everywhere we went there was awesome filipino food.

[@cristhianaresobo6001]

Eating balut, 1. Make sure its hot, its gross when not hot and fresh. 2. U need good spicy coconut vinegar (with herbs and spices some call it "sukang pinakurat" not too sour) and salt. I think the secret in eating balut is in the vinegar recipe mix. Without vinegar, it makes it eating gross also. 3. After opening, sip the hot balut liquid. 4. Put little salt, vinegar, and drink. It does change the balut flav.in the mouth. Then repeat while eating balut meat. 5. For first timer, eat it in night or in dark place :D

[@valdeblaiirejhonesd.7106]

Definitely correct

[@jaztaz6160]

Y eat it at all. If u need all that stuff to make it not gross whats the point. Eat something else .

[@michellehyman8468]

Jaz Taz it’s like a raw oyster. Better with all the extras

[@jaztaz6160]

@@michellehyman8468 i understand making something good taste better . But choosing to eat something "gross" like this comment implied , doesnt make sense to me. Its "gross" without vinagar , ok so unless your starving and have no other options , just eat something else!

[@UwU-lm9or]

oh we have pinakurat here in hawaii lol

That was some bro-mantic shit right there in the first few seconds of the video.

My husband is half Filipino & half Mexican. Love Adobo. Made some the other night. So good.

[@victorwonder]

Joe needs to do more food bits in his comedy. His delivery (9:56) with the cowboy wanting chicken adobo (mispronounced as a-do-be) was funny :)

[@Canebrak31]

Jo Koy is the bomb! Love that dude and his comedy, You too Sean you’re the greatest.

[@dbatch2826]

My filipino mom told me this joke a long time ago. It sounds better when said with a filipino accent. Why are pinoys not allowed to vote? Because they'll just eat the balut.

[@alimon89]

LOL!!! Though maybe not? Do a lot of people actually like balut or is it like Jo said?

[@MrAnonymous825]

Jo is white as hell, ofc he doesn’t eat balut but it’s a great snack that’s cheap af

[@artvandelay3252]

So is the point of the joke that it sounds like ballot?

[@ryzkyjaeger07]

Took you long enough

That shit was trash

You really can’t go to a pinoy party without coming back fully stuffed

[@touriblue]

Nathalie Munti And you even have "take home"s 😂

[@beattheovenludwigvan]

exactly!

[@theclassicmanila-style8435]

They'll get mad if you dont eat a lot, so pretend the food is great and ask for a take home, pinoy moms take pride in their cooking so if someone ask for a take home that means she did a great job

[@mangaboardlife]

Bcuz we care about you'll be back as soon as you're hungry

[@itriedbutfailed5953]

Seriously! Going out with my in laws (PI) we will go eat. Come home “you hungry anak?! Get some rice and grab some paksew” never in my life will go hungry with them 😂

[@cecilycook5592]

Filipino food is just amazing!!! One of my longest time friends is Filipino. She was actually born in Seattle, we met up while both living in Cali and now we both live in WA lol .... LOVE her family, parents are both Filipino and just AMAZING. Her and i were inseparable 😍😍😍

A Filipino will never starve, give them two unrelated edible items and they’ll turn it into a seven course meal

@Adjie Damaso I am from California. My mom is Spanish-Filipina. I am more pinoy than you know. Ikaw saan ka nakatira? Ipag luto mo ako nang arroz caldo. Ang sarap nun!

[@ChristopherGraham13]

There used to in fact be a Filipino restaurant near Nashville but it was in the wrong place. I loved it. I was sad when it closed.

[@daphnecurtis7667]

A Filipino dish that I haven’t heard or mentioned is Siopao,- shoo pow (chicken, pork , and egg stuffing wrapped in a white dough steamed and can be frozen to be eaten later. A dish I frequently make. Learned it from my mother. RIP. Almost like a hot pocket.

Rule #4.......Filipino don't use LEMON we use CALAMANSI😎
