EN: A type of small freshwater clam
The tiny cousin of tahong and halaan. You find these in freshwater. They're so small that eating them is a test of patience, but they make a super flavorful, brothy soup. It's the ulam that requires more work to eat than to cook.
Often cooked in ginger broth ('tinola').
