Greetings Foodies Bee Hive!
It has been half a month since my last post in the community. Today, I am going to share with you a dish that is very popular in the northern part of our country, the Philippines. The northern part of our country is commonly called "Ilocandia". It is called Ilocandia because the majority of the people living in the north are Ilocanos.
Ilocanos are known to have a cuisine that is mostly made of vegetables. Ilocanos are also known for their use of fish sauce in their recipes. The dish that I am going to introduce to you today is called "Buridibod", it is a vegetable dish with fish sauce.
Buridibod's main ingredient is the sweet potato, it can be combined with moringa leaves and moringa fruit, birch flower (Chinese spinach), and string beans. Fried fish is usually added to make the soup tastier.
