HOW TO COOK PORK ADOBO (ADOBONG BABOY)
Pork Adobo or Adobong Baboy is a very popular and
traditional dish in the Philippines.
Most of the Filipinos know how to cook it. The Filipinos have many ways how to
cook it like adding chopped potatoes, adding pineapple chunks, cubed carrots,
etc. Many Filipinos are interested in making new versions of Adobong Baboy. Some used coconut milk
for the replacement of soy sauce, the others are still looking up for
ingredients that they think would suit their tastes like using “achuete” and
many spices and seeds. But to me, I love
the idea of how to cook it in its very original version. I already shared with you my Adobong manok recipe before and now we
