About Sinigang

Sinigang is a traditional Filipino soup known for its distinctive sour flavor, typically derived from tamarind. This hearty dish features a variety of fresh vegetables such as kangkong (water spinach), okra, tomatoes, green beans, and radish, paired with a protein like pork, shrimp, fish, or chicken. Sinigang is celebrated for its nutritious profile, as the abundance of vegetables provides essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Tamarind, the key ingredient, is rich in antioxidants and contributes to the dish’s signature tang. Depending on the choice of protein, Sinigang can be a good source of lean protein and minerals like iron. While delicious and nourishing, some versions may be high in sodium due to seasonings or broth concentrates, so moderation is encouraged. Sinigang’s wholesome combination of flavors and nutrients makes it a comforting and health-conscious staple of Filipino cuisine.
