EN: Soy sauce
The lifeblood of Filipino kitchens. That dark, salty liquid you put on literally everything: your adobo, your sinangag, your siomai. It's the partner-in-crime of calamansi and sili. A household isn't a home without a bottle of Silver Swan or Datu Puti.
From Hokkien Chinese 豆油 (tāu-iû), meaning 'bean oil'.
A staple condiment in Filipino cuisine.
