EN: rice porridge
This is the noun or verb form of comfort food. It's the act of turning simple bigas into the warm, soupy goodness that is lugaw. It’s what your mom makes when you're sick, when it's raining, or when you're just plain sad. It’s the culinary equivalent of a warm hug.
ROOT MEANING: rice porridge, congee
The word is formed from the root 'lugaw' with the infix '-in-', indicating something that has been made or cooked. Thus, 'linugaw' is 'made into lugaw'.
🇵🇭 Ang linugaw na bigas ay mainam na pagkain para sa may sakit.
