Significance to my Family

Humbang Baboy, Filipino Kitchen Recipes

The Filipino dish "Humba" is one of the most significant dishes in our family. Whenever there are occasions, birthdays, gatherings, therewould always be this so called "Sweet Adobo".

Maybe this dish became a favorite because most in our family have sweet tooth; loves eating sweets. Before, it was just an experiment dish because we were getting sick of the usual old-fashioned adobo, so my aunt made her own version and recipe of this dish. But later on, we dsicovered that there actually is a dish like that. So since that day, we dropped off the term "Sweet Adobo" and started calling it Pork Humba.

     Everyone in my family loves it! Not just because of the sweetness but also for it's creaminess and pleasant aroma. We like it even better when served with hot rice and eaten together with the whole family.
