Bulanglang Kapangpangan

Bulanglang Kapangpangan is a Filipino dish prepared with pork and/or seafood cooked in a broth together with taro, guava and other tropical vegetables.

Bulanglang Kapampangan is the perfect marriage between meat and vegetables, it’s not as meaty as sinigang and it’s not a vegetable rich like pinakbet or bulanglang, this simply sits between the two. In its most basic form, it uses bony pork cuts for flavour but some special varieties may include Bangus Belly and Prawns which gives it a very unique flavour.

It may look like sinigang but it is not as sour, this is more savoury sweet due to the guavas, very mellow taste but very delicious. Like sinigang or bulanglang its quite easy to prepare, no sautéing needed, it’s just a dump of all ingredients in a pot, let it boil and wait.
