The Peach Kitchen’s Pork Adobo

The Peach Kitchen's Pork Adobo | www.thepeachkitchen.com

Adobo is one of the first dishes most moms teach their children when they’re old enough to cook. It’s very easy, it’s has very few ingredients, and it’s as Filipino as it could get. Ykaie has learned to embrace all kinds of adobo that we cook at home — from pork to chicken to squid. Among all of the versions of adobos, though, she likes Pork Adobo more than the others. I’m guessing it has something to do with the fat. Pork belly has a thick layer of fat and it keeps the meat moist and luscious while cooking.

Each family has their own version of Adobo and it is as unique as each of the members of that household. Given the same ingredients for adobo, I’m absolutely certain that each would come up with two completely different results.

The Electrolux event I attended last thursday got me craving for some Pork Adobo. Chef Bruce Lim had a cooking demo for Adobo Pasta. It was delicious and something I want to recreate at home. So that same night, I added ingredients for Pork Adobo in my to buy list, taking extra care to add more because leftovers were planned to be cooked into pasta the next day.

Browsing over my past adobo post, I was surprised to find out I didn’t have a recipe nor a post for Filipino Pork Adobo. There was chinese, white, yellow and squid. There was even string beans adobo. Here, check them out:

  • Minolauric Adobo sa Dilaw
  • Chinese Pork Adobo
  • Pork Adobo sa Gata
  • Adobong Balut
  • Squid Adobo
  • Squid Adobo sa Gata
  • String Beans Adobo with Tofu
  • Lamb Adobo Fiesta
  • Fried Adobo Flakes
  • Lazy Chicken Adobo
  • White Chicken Adobo with Lemongrass

See? No Pork Adobo. I guess this was overlooked because it’s a common, almost weekly, dish on the menu. Well, today Pork Adobo is the star of our plates.

Just like what I said earlier, each has their own version of adobo. Mine has all the basic ingredients like soy sauce, vinegar, and garlic. It also has spices like bay leaf, peppercorns, and a dash of oregano.

Is putting a dash of oregano sound weird to you? I bet.

I want to know what’s unique about the way you cook your pork adobo. Do you bake it? Marinate it first? Or do you simmer it in vinegar?

    For you this is a Ho Hum recipe. But for ME, I can remember the first time I had this dish. That’s how memorable it was, even though that was 20 yrs ago. It is so delicious. And at least in my part of the States, you don’t easily find it. I was going to look back thru your site for a recipe. But I hadn’t gotten around to it. So how is the renovation of your Internet Café coming along?

      We also do String Beans Adobo with tofu. That’s fantastic and ideal if you don’t eat meat.

    Just by the looks I’m craving for the foods you prepared! I wonder if you have something to do with “tuyo” or “daing” aside from being fried or gata? that it’s a main course not just to add kicks to some dishes like mungo or spaghetti? tks passyourluck

    I’ve always considered cooking as a burden rather than just a chore, that’s why I never bothered learning even the easiest dish. But of course, I’m getting older so I don’t have any choice but to learn how to cook, or else I’ll starve. LOL thanks for this post! It’ll come handy since now I have to cook for the kiddos 🙂
