Tocino is a deliciously sweet cured meat, hailing from the heart of Filipino cuisine. Traditionally made from pork, it’s marinated in a blend of sugar, salt, and spices, giving it a signature caramelized glaze when cooked. Historically, it was a way to preserve meat, but today, it’s a beloved breakfast staple. While Tocino offers a burst of flavor, it’s important to enjoy it in moderation due to its sugar and sodium content. Pair it with fresh vegetables or rice to create a balanced meal that celebrates the rich culinary heritage of the Philippines!
