Title:
Broth Not Sauce!
Description:
PIgafetta offers the first historical evidence that in the Philippines there was not only meat and fish roasting but the making of fish and pork dishes with BRODO. James Robertson’s translation of brodo into English is sauce. It is wrong and must be changed to BROTH, a thin liquid that could use water, coconut water, stock (from meat, poultry, fish, seafood, vegetables). In Italian today the word for gravy or sauce is fondo. Philippine cooking continues to value broths such as tinola, tola, sinigang, and other dishes with sabaw.
