[@Richie_Rio]

Filipino food is some of the most unique food I’ve ever had! Love it.

[@bluetigerlozano59]

It couldn’t be more true.
Besides the obvious Spanish and Mexican influence from the 16 and 17th centuries from the galleons, before European contact, the Philippines had influence from contact with India, Java, Sumatra, Thailand and later China and Japan...
All these cultures have had their culinary influence on Filipino food today (albeit some are subtle influences).
Food is the most direct and tangible proof of a culture besides language, and Filipino food reflects all the influences that it had gotten from many cultures over the centuries (including American influence).
If that isn’t ‘unique’ in the world, I don’t know what could be.

[@rebecca2653]

For the longest time, I called it "leche plan" because that's how everyone (my Filipino family LOL) pronounced it. It wasn't until I was in my 20s that I realized it was actually pronounced "leche FLAN" LOL

[@pinoydigitalnomad]

Filipino here who have been to Mexico and South America. I'd say the Polvoron in the Philippines is more equivalent to Mexicam Mazapan but the taste profile of Mazapan is that of Filipino Chocnut. Id also have to say while Mexican cuisine is one of the best in the world, the flans in America is inferior to the Filipino Leche Flan as ours is more velvety and silky. This is because we only use egg yolks in our flan. Historically, this is because the egg whites are used as construction materials for the baroque churches, bridges and forts during the Spanish period and people dont know what to do with the egg yolks so we made flans but using only the egg yolks.
Last but not the least, Filipinos also have Tamales as traditional Filipino food which came directly from Mexico. In turn, Mexico also have Tuba (common in Mexican states on the Pacific side) which came directly from the Philippines. Puerto Vallarta is a stopover of trading ships coming from the Philippines back in the Spanish colonial period and some Filipinos would escape from the ship and settle in these areas (e.g. states of Guerrero, Jalisco etc).

[@ernesthader1109]

I'm curious on what you think about ceviche. I believe it's americas version of our kinilaw. Maybe one of our exports?

[@pinoydigitalnomad]

@@ernesthader1109 not an export. Cevice of Peru started way back since the time of the incas and our kinilaw seems to have a taste profile of sour acidic which is a staple dish of our precolonial heritage. So either a peruvian soldier might have brought it to the philippines, became an instant hit since it fitted perfectly to our flavor profile and stayed; or it is a dish that has been with the philippones and both of the dish similarity were just coincidemces.

[@eduardochavacano]

polvoron is Extinct! Only Fil Ams heard of those.

[@charliegoodwin1933]

They are similar because they were occupied by the Spanish for years and years, just like most Latin countries.

[@wheatontisoy8047]

It’s deeper than that Charlie. There was trade between Mexico and the Philippines for 300 years. Being Filipino I feel a certain kinship with Mexicans here in the USA thus I have many mexican friends.

[@JM-to9dk]

The Philippines was colonised by Spain but the Viceroyalty of New Spain was tasked with the administration.
New Spain encompasses the places we now know today as Cuba, California, New Mexico, Texas, Mexico through to Costa Rica (I believe modern day Panama was excluded). Thus, slaves from here and the Philippines worked on the Manila galleons (trading ships). Relationships between these slaves formed but contrary to popular belief, Filipino-Spanish relationships were uncommon as the Spanish saw themselves as superior.

[@goodwillhumping7904]

[@bluetigerlozano59]

One of the greatest things about being Filipino (and Jokoy may or may not realize this already), is that it can relate to so many cultures due to the great variety of influences it has had for centuries, even before the Manila/ Acapulco galleon trade (or even before Magellan came).
When a Filipino eats Chinese cuisine, he can relate to noodle and tofu dishes that are known to a Filipino as ‘tokwa’ and ‘pansit’.
When a Filipino eats Vietnamese and Thai food, he can relate to the dishes with chilies, coconut milk and many vegetables used in Filipino cuisine and dishes such as ‘sinigang’, ‘’gata’ and “lumpiang sariwa”.
Peanut flavored dishes are very similar to Indonesian and Malaysian cuisine as well as common vegetables used.
The popular Filipino ‘puto’ is directly from the South Indian ‘puttu’ that is commonly known in South India.
When a Filipino eats Mexican food, he immediately recognizes many foods, especially those from regions that were highly influenced by Mexican culture such as in Cavite- where they use the terms ‘atole’ (to refer to ‘lugaw’ or “arroz caldo”) and ‘tamales’ which, although slightly different and in some ways closer to Central American tamales, is also a holiday treat for many in Cavite.
As for American food- try Jolibees, albeit completely transformed by contemporary Filipino taste preferences (ie sweet spaghetti and fried chicken), potato and macaroni salad, etc..
So Filipinos, more than possibly anyone else in the world, has a much wider and appreciative palate to various world cuisines- but yes, Hispanic and Mexican cuisine has a special place in Filipino hearts and tummies.
👍

[@Valorhammer]

Another thing to celebrate our cross cultural exchange with our older cousins (especially Mexico, which just like any typical Latino/Filipino household were left with taking care of the younger sibling while the parents did squat shit):
Tequila originally was made through a fermentation process Filipinos brought with them through the Galleon trade, we used the process on coconuts, they used it on agave.

Filipino Mexicans (Spanish: Mexicanos Filipinos) are Mexican citizens who are descendants of Filipino ancestry.[1] There are approximately 1,200 Filipino nationals residing in Mexico.[2] In addition, genetic studies indicate that about a third of people sampled from Guerrero have Asian ancestry with genetic markers matching those of the populations of the Philippines.[

From my perspective, Philippines and Mexico are basically nearly identical twins that were separated from birth. We may have become more different in time but everytime you look at both, you can never mistake that we're almost identical cultures, probably due to the galleon trade.

True nostalgia if you eat those IN COMBINATIONS --- Champorado is best eaten with dried fish... polvoron is on point and good on its own... and the leche flan, Jokoy just hit the nail on its head when he said that in a gathering, there is always an AUNTIE who specializes in making it. But the golden standard of leche flan is when it sticks to the spoon when you cut through it. The texture is a bit thick and dense, but very creamy and it melts in your mouth.

Other factiods:
Tocino just means bacon Spanish but its a particular pork dish in the Philippines.
Bistek in Filipino and Bistec in Spanish. From English of beef steak (I assume). They are a variety of beef steak dishes.
Adobo just means marinade. Filipinos have chicken adobo, other countries have a version but they're probably not directly related.
Torta means cake, pie, sandwich, or omlete depending on the cuisine, hence, we have tortang talong - eggplant omlette.
Filipino Turon is nothing like Turon in Spain and Latin America except that they are desserts.
