EN: viand, main dish
The eternal question every Pinoy asks at least twice a day: 'Anong ulam?' It's the star of the meal, the main event that makes your kanin (rice) not feel so lonely. Without ulam, life is just plain rice. It's the adobo, sinigang, or even the humble fried egg that gives your meal its identity.
From Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *qulam, meaning 'side dish with rice'.
A fundamental concept in Filipino cuisine. It refers specifically to the dish eaten with rice.
