EN: fish roe
The "extra" you find when cleaning a fish, which some people consider the best part. It can be fried, cooked in a soup (sinigang), or salted. It's the Pinoy version of caviar, but way more accessible and often cooked until crispy. That popping texture is everything!
Compound of "itlog" (egg) and "isda" (fish).
ROOT MEANING: egg
Can refer to roe from any fish, such as milkfish (bangus) or flying fish (bolinaw). The preparation varies by region.
