Adobo is a Filipino classic made by simmering pork, chicken, or both in a mixture of vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, bay leaves, and black peppercorns. Originating in Luzon, it is traditionally braised until the meat is tender and infused with a savory-sour sauce. Often eaten with rice and cooked in large batches, it’s a staple in everyday meals and known for improving in flavor over time. With roots in pre-colonial preservation techniques, the dish evolved under Spanish influence to include soy sauce, becoming a symbol of adaptability in Filipino home cooking. Common variations include squid (pusit), catfish (hito), goat (kambing), string beans (sitaw), and coconut milk-based (adobo sa gata), among others.
