Bagnet is a Filipino dish originating from the Ilocos region, known for its rich and indulgent flavors. It consists of deep-fried, crispy pork belly that is traditionally seasoned with salt and spices, then boiled and fried to achieve its crackling exterior and tender, juicy interior. Bagnet is often served as a main dish or paired with regional dips like bagoong (fermented fish paste) or vinegar-based sauces, and commonly accompanies rice and vegetable sides like pinakbet. While Bagnet is celebrated for its satisfying crunch and savory taste, it is a high-fat dish due to the pork belly and frying process, making it less ideal for those watching cholesterol levels. However, it is a superb source of protein and energy. Its traditional preparation emphasizes freshness and simplicity, spotlighting the vibrant flavors of Filipino cuisine while serving as an occasional treat within a balanced diet.
