I've had rice everyday for the past 48 years. One of the side benefits of being married to a Filipina, I guess.😍😍😍

[@kaalamankusinaatkantahan3487]

You have just been Filipinified, Rick ❤️

[@lyhj_3007]

😂😂

[@1911Zoey]

Whats your favorite from her cooking? :)

[@TheOriginalRick]

@@1911Zoey pretty much anything except dishes with bittermelon. Adobo is the one we cook the most because it is so easy. Longsilog is a regular breakfast for us. Just finished a big pot of leftover caldereta.

[@jahd5790]

@@TheOriginalRick you got the idea for the caldereta. It gets more complex in flavor. In western culture, having leftover is definitely a no no. I think your wife is doing a great job taking care of you Rick and you adapting is great too.

[@janjanb152]

The lady has like a filipino soul. I mean, look at how natural she is eating rice with her hands. Shes like born and raised in the Philippines.

[@layagvlog]

Filipinos love to put vinegar in most of the dishes cause it preserves the dishes like adobo which could be eatable for at least 3-5 days without refrigeration.

[@arjaygimoros5924]

True.

[@AL-vw7kx]

My mom used vinegar most on everything even when she's cleaning! Lol

[@kylepanizales3713]

nope 5 days is too long

[@AL-vw7kx]

4? Lol

[@erenprincess3632]

Our adobo could only be eaten for 2 days without refrigeration.

[@kirksander]

TAPSILOG is only a member of a family of breakfast items Filipinos love and adore. Basically the PREFIXES are interchangable depending on the main protien asociated with the SINANGAG - Fried rice and ITLOG - Egg hence the general term for these breakfast items "SILOG". Other Silog options include: LONGSILOG - Protein is Sweet Filipino Sausage TOSILOG - Protein is TOCINO (more or less a sweet style filipino bacon) BANGSILOG - Protein is Deep fried milkfish CORNSILOG - Protein is Corned Beef (Basically a corn beef hash of some sort) Hope you get to try the other ones since you didn't like the TAPA as much. These variations of proteins paired with the silog are made exactly for that reason (to have different options to choose from). Another thing i would like to Point out is that you actually use the vinegar based sauce as the dip for the the protein (though pouring small amounts of the sause over the rice is still ok). These vinegar sauces are basically a mixture of condements used in filipino cuisine along with soy sauce, fish sauce and more. And yes, you can literally buy them in bottles specially the spiced vinegar ones called Sinamak. These condements can be used to add more flavor and complexity to your food even on the table (while eating). Basically restaurants would have a set of of these sauces and condements for each table so that the customers could personalize their savory dishes to their taste much like how most would add hotsauce and etc to pizza. Hope this helps for future contents. Looking forward to your uploads.

[@TheTrips]

Thanks for taking the time to share all of this with us, we really appreciate it! Have a great day Kirk, and thanks so much for watching!

[@KenMikaze]

You forgot batsilog

[@marvinbagalacsa8621]

she is definitely filipina at heart lol she's a natural at eating with her hand

[@TheTrips]

Thanks Marvin ❤️

[@DJCJEntertainment]

Im proud being a filipino, thanks for promoting our culture...

[@iflipover]

Most of our dishes (except maybe for saucy or tomato sauce-baded and coconut milk-based dishes) are complemented with condiments/dipping sauce. Some vinegar or soy sauce mix usually. So always ask where you order if there's a sauce or dip to go along with the dish.

[@ZephyCluster]

here's one fun fact: TapSiLog is a mix-and-match style of Combo meal, where you can substitute the Tapa portion for any protein dish that's available. Common and equally acceptable variations more aligned with Western familiarity would be CornSiLog (Corned beef) Chik/ChixSiLog (Chicken), SpamSiLog (Duh), HotSiLog (Hotdog), and BacSiLog (Bacon). Also, it's si-na-ngag (Sea-nah-N(g)AHG), which means cooked rice mixed with garlic. Si-ni-gang (Sea-knee-GAHNG) is a soup dish that's basically a Sour Bouillabaisse. And another you should try, btw.

[@TheTrips]

Thank you for this! We love when our viewers share fun facts with us. It's been great learning about food from the Philippines and can't wait to try more 😊

[@dluckygurl8]

C'mon, you missed my fave -silogs: Longsilog (longganisa sausage) 🌭🍚🍳, Tosilog (tocino)🥩🍚🍳, and Bangsilog (bangus)🐟🍚🍳!!!

[@TheOriginalRick]

@@dluckygurl8 thanks for the reminder. Now we're going to have longsilog for breakfast this morning.

[@lebrownjamess]

@@dluckygurl8 I mean they did preface it with "Western familiarity" which is why they did not include those

[@dluckygurl8]

@@lebrownjamess Our local longganisa came from the Spanish longaniza, which is also very similar to the Portuguese sausage called linguica. Also, tocino (literally means bacon in Spanish) is also based from the Spanish bacon, except our pork belly is cured and sweetened. Last time I checked, both Spain and Portugal are part of "the West."

[@ABC-14324]

One of the traditional ways on eating handed down for generations for many Filipinos is eating without any utensils and just using your hands to scoop your mix of viand and rice.

[@TheOriginalRick]

Unfortunately, usually when Westerners see Filipinos eat with their hands they just assume that they're grabbing from the plate at random. There really is an art form to the proper placement of your fingers and how you pick up the food. A well-bred Filipino is very graceful when they eat with their fingers.

[@lonrea2886]

tapsilog is a hit or miss with first time tasters.. longsilog and tocilog are more 1st time friendly!

[@countroshculla]

Man, I really want to try their food. Filipinos really have amazing cuisine.

[@TheOriginalRick]

Yes, indeed they do. A fair warning though. Some of it can be quite addicting and once you try it, you want it more and more and more.

[@myra8158]

These foods aren't authentic

[@TheOriginalRick]

@@myra8158 "authentic" doesn't actually mean "cooked in myra's kitchen".

[@yaaaraves8951]

Yes, he should really try Filipino food

[@dznm10]

TAP-SI-LOG, This is an acronym for TAP is Tapa(cured beef).....SI is for sinangag(fried-rice)....LOG is egg(itlog).You just got me salivating on that crispy pata, it's been awhile I never had that.Bonne Appetite!

[@rmd743]

Yep, rice for breakfast, rice for lunch and rice for dinner. Oh, rice for dessert to (Biko, Suman etc) Life's good 👍 🌞

[@TheTrips]

Rice is life! 😊

[@pmackchokz]

TAPa - marinated fried beef SInangag - fried rice Pritong itLOG - fried egg TAPSILOG that reminds me of my college days one of my faves. Good for budgetarians Nice food review, in addition regarding crispy pata, the remains can be cooked with lechon sauce and vinegar turned into Lechon Paksiw Try Paksiw na Pata (cooked in soy sauce with banana blossoms) its also good

[@alvinvilla480]

This is the 3rd time I’m eating 2am because of your videos! Proud Filipino from London ON

[@TheTrips]

Thanks so much for watching Alvin! We hope you ate something good! Haha!

[@vl68934]

we dont usually pour that sauce in the rice. That sauce is meant for the pata to be dipped in. Dont be afraid to ask when you buy the food. The meat on the tapsilog can also be dipped into that pata sauce. That pata sauce is used for a lot of dry filipino meat dishes.

[@ningboniel679]

They are lot silog combo Bangsilog(fried fish milk/sinangag(fried rice)/itlog(egg). Tocilog(Tocino(marinated sweet meat and the sinangag and itlog). Longsilog(Longanisa(its a meat but put inside the skin and sinangag and itlog).

[@DavidWardle]

I really liked the look of that. I've never tried it and don't know if there are any Filipino places near me but it's worth trying to find out. Take care guys

[@myra8158]

Do not try these fake Filipino foods. I suggest trying some authentic like Pancit canton, Sisig, Kare-Kare, Adobo

[@TheOriginalRick]

@@fritzasong Myra is an expert on pinoy food. She has dozens of videos to prove it. Oh wait, my bad. She actually has none posted.

[@IsraelVasquez]

@@myra8158 You don't know what you're talking about.. Crispy pata and tapsilog are authentic Filipino foods. Pancit is not an authentic pinoy food as it's originally a Chinese food. you might not be even be a Filipino.

[@kaalamankusinaatkantahan3487]

@@myra8158 Crispy pata undergoes a certain process. It is not just another grilled pork and stuff and yes. it is Filipino 😊.

[@therealgeoarchon]

@@myra8158 nako marites ka lang eh HAHA

[@docvladsfoodblog7617]

Try the Filipino Lechon, Beef Kare Kare, and Pork Sisig

[@trythisj]

Just to add..we Filipinos use spoon instead of fork when eating with rice. It's just easier to get more of everything in one bite. #protip 😉

[@bagaholicmom2573]

You guys can use the spoon to scoop the rice with the meat and the egg instead of using your fork. :) Use your fork to push the food onto the spoon.

[@jackiezamo669]

Ur pronounce is right topsilog, we have also lots called log like longsilog , bangsilog, tapasilog, cornedsilog, and more made fish,corn beef, beef, pork, hotdog and more thats our ultimate breakfast in the philippines

[@oliverbigboss888]

Tapsilog for breakfast, & the crispy pata for appetizer when you drinking beer

[@janchristoperogawa7741]

When you said "I need a bottle of that sauce!", I felt that. I love Filipino sauces hahaha especially the seasoned vinegar.

[@sayavrakadabra]

Sinigang and Sinangag are two different thing Sinangag = Garlic Fried Rice Sinigang = Pork/Fish Sour Soup

[@h.4315]

The description of the _tapa_ being vinegary sounds odd to me, because it's usually not marinated in vinegar (or at least significantly). The primary flavors in a _tapa_ marinade is often soy sauce, garlic, and black pepper. Sourness often comes from the addition of Worcestershire sauce. However, _tapa_ is often served with a vinegar dip *ON THE SIDE* So it's possible that the tapsilog was served incorrectly: either the restaurant combined the vinegar dip as part of the marination/finished dish, or the vinegar dip was poured onto the meat.

[@albertosundiam228]

im a pilipino, i will proud of you guys..... 4 eating our best dish in my country. try another dish guys sisig. bulalo. pork lumpia,

[@Gabialoha1]

You guys are making SO hungry and SO nostalgic. I’m half Filipina and haven’t had a lot of Filipino food ( outside of adobo and lumpia) since my Grandparents passed.

[@judy1570]

[@TheTrips]

Thank you for this! We're loving learning about cuisines from different countries :)

Your videos are so entertaining and mouth-watering!! LOL!! Looking forward to more fun videos like these.

[@TheTrips]

Thank you so much for your kind words. It means a lot to us! ❤️

[@RAFLarchitects]

In the Philippines, the crispy pata is boiled until tender. Then air dried and sometimes kept on the fridge overnight. Then fried the next day. 😅

[@GT-Oldschool]

one thing i really love and enjoy watching on food videos is seeing adventurous westerners trying out foreign food. personally, i prefer tocilog (tocino), which is the pork version of the tapsilog. there are many other variations of that.

[@ronssportsadventures5411]

I just subscribed to your channel guys. Nice team I enjoyed watching your reactions. Tnx for liking our cuisines. Ron here from Philippines.

[@pedrogil3577]

The guy with the glass has a Filipino tongue. He knows how to read it right. Even in the other videos.

Maybe there’s a little Filipino blood in him? Time for a DNA test, haha! Thanks for watching

[@darrendarren9730]

Definitely eat with your hands. Sauce is for dipping. Great job guys!

[@mikeeguti2165]

Next should be sisig if you guys haven’t tried it yet. But you need to eat right away at the restaurant because it’s serve on a sizzling plate.

[@frederickpablo4341]

Crispy Pata is hogs leg, they boil it first then they deep fry it, then the tapsilog is for breakfast and its made of marinated beef. there's a lot of variations of SILOG meals. some are fried fish, hotdogs, fried chicken, pork chops, and other types sometimes its from other provinces in the philippines

[@allancastillo3106]

it's pronounced per sylable : tap-si-log (Tapa, sinangag, itlog) : the sauce for the crispy pata is a dipping sauce to be exact :) , atchara is a pickled papaya, please try.. calderetang kambing, (goat stew), kare-kare(ox tail stew), pancit palabok(rice noodle)

[@bebot2014]

tap (tapa) + si (sinangag = fried rice) + log (itlog=egg) = tapsilog sinigang = the sour broth while sinangag = fried rice although they rhymed but means diff

[@nolanest]

its a dipping sauce. but slobber on rice works too!!!

[@marygracelachica6229]

Thanks you guys for enjoying our specialties! Much love! ❤ 😍 💖

[@sixteenskies]

try using the spoon to scoop up the rice hihihi filipinos use hands that’s true but most of us use the spoon and fork! use the fork to push some rice and some “ulam” on the spoon and eat~

[@olivergravador3480]

Tapsilog: Tapa (beef), Si (sinangag which means fried rice), Log (itlog which means egg)

[@greenstan9606]

Sinangag is typical breakfast rice. Usually left over rice from dinner. You can try Tocilog - tocino (cured pork) Bangsilog - bangus (type of fish) Chicsilog - fried chicken And more...

[@laarnirodelas550]

When they pour the soy sauce on rice my eyes gets bigger and Oh nooo! It's too salty. You just dip the crispy pata on it but by the ways it will do some Filipinos do that.. Thank you for liking our food🥰🇵🇭

[@TheTrips]

Next time we'll be sure to dip into the sauce, and not the other way around! haha! Thanks so much for watching!

[@joyce7550]

sauce is 1 cup vinegar, 1 cup soy sauce, 1 tbsp sugar, loads of chopped garlic and onion. Add chilli if you like a bit of kick.

[@deliaciencia8187]

Krispy Pata is mostly eaten by Filipinos using their hands and always with rice. Dipping it with the soysauce, calamansi juice or vinegar and chili mixture........yummmmm !!

Beautiful food 🥘 I miss that ! Yummm 😋 Thanks for Sharing, Watching from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺

[@bobbyisla4574]

Guys you ordered wrong marinated tapa.... we marinate tapa in soy sauce and cracked black pepper... that's it. Vinegar is optional only....

[@iflipover]

Actually, the old recipes did use vinegar. But i guess they overdid it here. It's suppose to be only subtle.

[@OperationEndGame]

It’s Crispy Paris is German pork knuckle’s Asian brother…👍

[@icyharrychain]

The tapa in tapsilog is something you can replace with something else - that's something really common so feel free to put that crispy pata on your silog (fried rice + egg). In fact, we have Tocilog which is tocino (sweetened pork), fried rice and egg. Another variation is Longsilog with longganisa which is our take on the sausage. Replace the meat with hotdogs and you have hotsilog, corned beef (sauted with garlic and onion) and you have cornsilog, fried chicken and you get chicksilog. The choices and options are endless!

[@TheOriginalRick]

Longsilog is one of our favorite breakfast meals. We usually fix it with garlic fried rice instead of plain rice. It's not unusual for us to even have it for supper sometimes, as it's so easy to fix.

Crispy pata is marinated at least overnight, boiled with herbs & spices, dried then fried... The boiled water, herbs and spices is sometimes recycled for enhancing the pork taste in sinigang or adobo... Long time ago I thought it was a form of fast food. It is sslllooow food. The boiling and drying makes it extremely glass crispy!!!

[@shirgo5700]

my grandmother used to put a little sugar in the marinade to her tapa recipe. and we also used to squeeze a little calamansi or lemon which brings out flavor of the meat. there are different variations to the 'silog meals; spamsilog, longsilog, etc. you can make anything a 'silog by adding a different protein.

[@PisongKaninAdventures]

Originally adobo is oilly(as in soaked in its own oil) for preservation... it helps seal the meat from the air.... then the vinegar, sugar or salt also for preservation
