EN: fimbriated sardinella (a type of sardine)
The unsung hero of the palengke and the breakfast table. This is the fish that gets fried to a crisp and paired with sinangag and suka. It's the more affordable cousin of tawilis and the fresh version of what goes into that 555 or Ligo can. Your lola's favorite 'pritong isda'.
Possibly from a local Philippine language, specific to this type of fish.
Refers specifically to the Fimbriated Sardinella. Often sold dried (tuyo) or fresh in markets.
