About Pork humba liempo

Pork Humba Liempo is a beloved Filipino dish from the Visayas and Mindanao regions. It features pork belly ("liempo") slow-cooked in a savory-sweet sauce made with soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, garlic, and spices. Classic additions include banana blossoms, black beans, and star anise, which enhance its rich flavor profile. The dish is deeply rooted in Filipino culinary traditions, showcasing a balance of sweet, salty, and tangy notes. Nutritionally, Pork Humba Liempo offers a good source of protein from the pork, but it is typically high in fat, cholesterol, and sodium due to the cut of meat, cooking method, and seasonings. While banana blossoms and black beans bring fiber and some nutrients, moderation is key when enjoying this indulgent dish. Pairing it with a serving of vegetables and rice can provide a more balanced meal while complementing its bold flavors.
