About Sweet longanisa
Sweet Longanisa is a flavorful Filipino sausage known for its distinct balance of sweet and savory tastes. Traditionally made from ground pork, it’s seasoned with a combination of brown sugar, garlic, vinegar, soy sauce, and spices, then encased in natural or synthetic sausage casings. Originating from the Philippines, this breakfast favorite is often pan-fried to achieve a caramelized glaze and paired with rice and fried eggs. While rich in protein, Sweet Longanisa can be high in fat, sugar, and sodium, making it best enjoyed in moderation. Some variations may include chicken or turkey for a leaner option. To enhance its nutritional value, it can be served alongside fresh vegetables or whole-grain alternatives. Its delightful sweetness and aromatic spices make it a beloved component of Filipino cuisine, celebrated for its comforting and indulgent flavors.
