EN: salted egg
Basically the same thing as 'itlog na pula,' but this is its more "official" name. It's the go-to side dish when you want something salty to cut through the richness of other ulam. The perfect umami bomb for your kanin. If 'itlog na pula' is its nickname, 'itlog na maalat' is its government name.
Compound of "itlog" (egg) and "maalat" (salty).
ROOT MEANING: egg
Synonymous with "itlog na pula." Often eaten with tomatoes, onions, or as part of other dishes like bibingka or puto.
🇵🇭 Paborito kong palaman sa puto ang itlog na maalat.
🇺🇸 My favorite topping on rice cakes is salted egg.
