    • Thanks for chiming in on Kilawin! Found this in WikiPilipinas: Kilawin is a Philippine exotic delicacy in which the main ingredient is raw fish or meat marinated in vinegar, pepper, chili (preferably siling labuyo), chopped onions, and garlic and either cooked or served fresh without cooking. Other souring agents like calamansi juice may be used in place of vinegar.

      The root word “kilaw” probably comes from the word hilaw, meaning “raw.” It is a common dish found in almost every part of the Philippine archipelago. It has been around since at least the 10th century, an excavation revealing remains of cooking ingredients in Butuan City suggests.

      The Ilocano version, called kilawen, has the addition of papait (bitter bile juice). In nearby La Union and Pangasinan, there is a version known a “jumping salad” consisting of live shrimps eaten with a sprinkle of calamansi juice.

      In the Visayas, it is called kinilaw and the meat, seafood and vegetables in the dish are entirely raw or soured with vinegar or fruit juice. Coconut milk may be used in some recipes.

      Among the Tagalogs, a popular main ingredient choice for kilawin is fresh dilis. This may be prepared using the following recipe. ..

  2. We are all working to illuminate the hardships and triumph of our pioneer fathers. The “In Honor of Our Fathers” event is part of the “Filipino Voices: Past and Present at the National Steinbeck Center until July 22, 2012. That exhibit will probably travel throughout the U.S. Next stop, hopefully San Francisco.

    If any of you are in Central California before July 22nd, please come by the exhibit.

    Sincerely,
