Sinigang Sa Sampalok Mix Original

Only the Knorr sa Sampalok Original mix has that deliciously sour taste that is taken from fresh and well-chosen tamarind. Each tamarind was carefully and thoughtfully picked from the tree in order to provide the “asim kilig” of Sinigang that your family knows and loves!

Sinigang

Sinigang is a Philippine dish consisting of meat or seafood and vegetables simmered in a sour broth, often with a base of rice washing (water used to rinse rice). The sour soup goes well with rice, the staple food of all Filipinos. Because of this, as well as its use of native ingredients it is considered the national dish of the Philippines. Fish, pork, chicken, shrimp, or beef may be used for sinigang. There are usually leafy vegetables: gabi (taro), siling labuyo (red chili), or malunggay leaves, or kangkong (water spinach). Other vegetables cooked in sinigang may include okra, radish, eggplant, tomatoes, sitaw (snake beans), and string beans. The vegetables are chosen to complement the dish's flavor.

The Flavor

The flavor of sinigang comes mainly from the souring agent used. The souring agent is chosen to complement the meat used in the dish. Sour fruits such as sampalok (tamarind), kamias, sineguelas, and bayabas (guava) are most commonly used to flavor the broth. These days, powdered mixes and bouillon cubes come in some of these flavors and may be used instead for convenience.
