EN: Filipino sour soup
The official comfort food of the Philippines. It's the sour soup that makes you 'asim-kilig' and feels like a warm hug, especially on a rainy day. The ultimate test of a relationship: kung pareho kayo ng level ng asim na gusto. The cure for hangovers, heartbreaks, and the common cold.
From the verb 'sigang', meaning to stew.
ROOT MEANING: to cook rice by toasting then boiling
Variations include Sinigang na Baboy (pork), Sinigang na Hipon (shrimp), and Sinigang sa Miso. The souring agent can vary from tamarind (sampalok) to guava (bayabas) or calamansi.
