Philippines - Filipino
Cuisine |
Philippine
cooking and foods have evolved over the centuries from its
Malayo-Polynesian origins to a mixed cuisine with many Hispanic
or Spanish, Chinese, American, and other surrounding Asian
influences adapted to both indigenous ingredients and the local
palate. Rice, soy sauce, and fish sauce has been used in the
Philippines for thousands of years since the Austronesian people
first settled on the island nation. |
