Philippine Cuisine is a diverse blend of flavors and cooking techniques influenced by various cultures, including Spanish, Chinese, and American. It features a variety of ingredients such as rice, seafood, vegetables, and meats, often seasoned with soy sauce, vinegar, and spices. Popular dishes include adobo, a savory meat stew, and sinigang, a sour soup made with tamarind. Street food is also an essential part of Philippine Cuisine, with snacks like isaw (grilled chicken intestines) and balut (fertilized duck egg) being widely enjoyed. Meals are typically served with rice, and sharing food is a common practice, reflecting the country's strong sense of community.
