Binagoongan is a beloved Filipino dish known for its rich, savory, and tangy flavors. It features pork, often shoulder or belly, simmered in a sauce made with bagoong (fermented shrimp paste), tomatoes, garlic, onion, and vinegar. This classic recipe hails from the Philippines, where fermented condiments play a key role in traditional cuisine. While it is packed with protein from the pork, its healthiness depends on preparation. Using leaner pork cuts and minimizing added oil can reduce saturated fat content. The fermented shrimp paste is rich in probiotics, which support gut health, but it’s also high in sodium, so moderation is key. Its combination of flavorful ingredients pairs well with steamed vegetables and rice, making it both nourishing and satisfying. Binagoongan is a dish that captures the depth of Filipino culinary heritage in every bite.
