How to Cook Sinaing Na Tulingan

You should not miss how to cook sinaing na tulingan! This is a local favorite that you should try!

This dish can be described as a braised fish. Tulingan or skipjack or mackerel tuna is a saltwater fish that is common in the Philippines. It is a good fish to grill and dip in soy sauce and calamansi with tomatoes. Fresh tulingan, that with thin film of “saliva” and clear eyes, are the best to use!

There are different variants to the dish sinaing. One is that with kamias or kalamias (known as cucumber or pickle tree in English), which is sour. Another version cooks tulingan in coconut milk; this one is for those who love creamy dishes. Our recipe here uses pork, a common addition in sinaing. We don’t know how or when they started using pork fat in this dish, but the fat really deepens the flavor. If you want to make it more delicious, cook this dish in palayok. You will surely have a taste of your grandma’s sinaing na tulingan! Yum! Enjoy!
