About Sinigang broth

Sinigang broth is a classic Filipino soup base known for its tantalizing sour flavor, traditionally derived from tamarind or other souring agents like calamansi, guava, or tomato. This aromatic broth typically supports a mix of vegetables such as kangkong (water spinach), radish, eggplant, green beans, and tomatoes, and is often paired with proteins like pork, fish, shrimp, or beef. Rich in nutrients, Sinigang broth is low in fat, especially when made with lean proteins, and offers vitamins and minerals from its vegetable ingredients. Tamarind, its key flavor component, is a source of antioxidants and aids digestion. However, sodium levels can be high if seasoned with fish sauce or broth cubes, so mindful preparation can ensure a more heart-healthy version. Beloved for its comforting, tangy taste, Sinigang broth encapsulates the vibrant and nutritious essence of Filipino cuisine.
