About Pork humba

Pork Humba is a flavorful Filipino braised dish that originates from the Visayas and Mindanao regions. It features tender pork belly slow-cooked in a rich, savory-sweet sauce made with soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, and spices like star anise and bay leaves. Black beans and pineapple are often added for extra depth and a hint of sweetness. While Pork Humba’s succulent texture and robust taste make it a crowd favorite, it is considered rich due to its high fat content from the pork belly. However, the dish does incorporate healthful elements like protein from the meat and antioxidants from garlic and spices. Modifications, such as using leaner cuts of pork or reducing sugar, can make it more health-conscious. Pork Humba is traditionally enjoyed with steamed rice, making it a satisfying and quintessential example of Filipino comfort food.
