About Kinilaw

Kinilaw is a traditional Filipino dish often likened to ceviche, featuring raw seafood like fish, shrimp, or squid marinated in vinegar. It’s typically seasoned with ingredients such as calamansi juice, ginger, onions, chili, and sometimes coconut milk, resulting in a tangy, refreshing flavor profile. Originating from the Philippines, kinilaw highlights the country’s abundant access to fresh seafood and regional flavors. From a nutritional standpoint, kinilaw is a low-calorie, protein-packed dish, providing essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids that support heart health and brain function. The use of vinegar and citrus adds antioxidants, while ginger and chili may offer digestive and anti-inflammatory benefits. However, raw seafood can pose risks if not properly handled, and the sodium content from added seasoning should be considered. Overall, kinilaw is a flavorful, nutrient-rich option for seafood lovers seeking a fresh and light dish.
