Next up: Sabaw Season pop up at Maymar Filipino on 11/27 at 4PM!
Sabaw means broth/soup/gravy in Tagalog. It's a huge component in Filipino cuisine, which is why many Filipino foods are considered comfort food!
I'll be featuring a few of my favorites:
Tofu arroz caldo: a slow cooked garlic and ginger based rice porridge topped with fried tofu, green onion, and crispy garlic.
Tofu & king oyster mushroom dinuguan: "chocolate meat " without the meat! I use black bean juice & chocolate to recreate the "beef blood" texture, use shredded king oyster mushroom and tofu for the protein, and season with vinegar and serrano pepper to complete the flavor profile. Served over rice and garnished with green onion and crispy garlic.
Vegan Pork Bicol: Bicol express is a spicy coconut stew originating from the Bicol region using spicy peppers to bring this dish to life. Vegan pork sausage will be the protein in this rendition. Served over rice and garnished with green onion and crispy garlic.
Carrot Ginger Kimchi: This velvety lighthearted soup will be the perfect blanket for your tastebuds during this cold season. It's based off of turmeric, garlic, ginger, and coconut milk garnished with kimchi and fried tofu.
And you'll be able to get the beloved vegan lumpia you know and love! 🍛
See you there!
