In this episode of Around the Philippines, we’re cooking six traditional Filipino beef soups from different regional cuisines: pochero, tiyula itum, serkele, beef pares, beef hinalang, and balbacua.
Beef soups are a staple of Filipino comfort food, enjoyed throughout the year in homes, restaurants, and local eateries across the Philippines. From familiar favorites like pochero and pares to regional specialties such as tiyula itum, serkele, hinalang, and balbacua, we explore the ingredients, cooking methods, and flavors that make each dish distinct.
