Hello everyone!

My husband is a great cook :) I've actually taken a liking to tamales, bean salads, etc, that he had grown up with, coming from Texas.

He has also learned how to cook adobo, leche flan, and fried lumpia for me. I must admit I am a newbie compared to him in the kitchen.

I really want him to try more Filipino dishes. But, I also need to learn how to cook them. haha! I've already made pork sinigang and he seems to have liked it.

What other Filipino food/dishes do you think Americans are more likely to eat?

(And please, no dog meat jokes, hehe)

I love panset! (I don't know if I spelled that right...)

It's spelled pancit or pansit :) but yey, i'm glad to hear that cause I was thinking of making pansit tomorrow!

Which kind do you like? :)

Wow! That's so good to know.

My husband has only really tried adobo, sisig, lumpia and kare kare when we were in Manila a few times. He said he liked the sinigang I made... Wth the recipe from the panlasangpinoy site! Yey! :)

Curious, what sort of meat did you use for the bopis? I had wanted to try making pork sisig but I can't find the meat for it :(

My friend was the one who made the bopis and I think she got the meat (pig's lungs and heart) from H-Mart in Chicago. It is really a tough meat to find so a butcher shop might be the best place to go for that kind of meat.

I have mostly an american palate. The things I most enjoy in pinoy food are adobo, bistek tagalog, menudo (without liver), nilaga, and everyone's favorite lumpia.

I like filipino food, but don't really want it every day. But those things I've listed come closest to what I would think most americans would like.
