There are as many ways to cook adobo as there are households in the Philippines. Every region has its own take on preparation. I like my adobo somewhat dry, but that's because I'm the weird guy in my family. Adding sake isn't in any adobo recipe that I know (I suspect that it serves a similar function as marinating in vinegar. I was a little concerned about the taste until you added the vinegar later on), but that's the great thing about the dish. You can make your own special adobo.
@@WhoareY0uuuuUUUUUUuuuuu there's nothing stupid about the initial comment, as he mention none of the recipes this person knows adds sake to the dish but he also mentioned that the great thing about it is that the recipe is flexible and can be made on own preference as long the basics are there.
I'm Filipino and even though it's not traditional, I personally add some Chinese cooking wine during the sautéing stage myself to tenderize and add another layer of flavor. I feel so validated that you used sake for your video in a similar manner! Your adobo looks really delicious. I'm glad you enjoyed the dish! 😊
@@HiroFoodinJapan What makes adobo, adobo is the fact that you can add your own twist in it. As long as the core ingredients is in there then it's fine. Different parts of the Philippines have different ways to cook adobo. Your version is very valid!
Great thing about adobo is that it keeps very well in the refrigerator. Lasts forever :D Lazy way is just to dump everything in a pot, turn the stove on low, and let it go. As it cooks in its own fat, it caramelizes. Tastes even better after a couple of days in the fridge.
@@HiroFoodinJapan the longer Adobo stays in the fridge the better it taste... At most if you don't have a refrigerator Adobo can last for about 2 or 3 days, if refrigerated it'll last a week, and it will last for 6 months frozen. If you have left over Adobo and left over rice you can make Adobo rice.
@@animesenpai1163 The salt & vinegar preserves and marinates the cooked adobo well. In our household they always make our version a little too saltier (or more sour) than the average recipe to match with large rice eaters here so my problem is the marination process tends to make our abodo even more saltier than what I can handle the longer we store it in the fridge. Also your adobo rice suggestion is smart. In a local restaurant called Gerry's Grill, they make the best adobo rice that we usually order at least 2. It's so darn good we can eat it alone even without adding any of the main dish to it.
First time cooking an unfamiliar dish and being successful is like playing on a slot machine for the first time and hitting the jockpot. The bowls of rice has suddenly gone with the magical taste of the adobo.
There are so many ways to cook adobo here, every family has their own recipe. In my family alone, there are 4 - my grandma's, my mom's, and my two aunt's. My aunt adds boiled and chopped up liver to give the sauce more body. My mom adds coconut milk and chili. My other aunt adds processed cheese! And my grandma makes the most traditional one, she just adds boiled eggs and potatoes. Yours looked really legit. Great work!
The way you cook it is beautiful even if its your first time and your videos are so relaxing to watch. Next time marinate the meat overnight, it'll be much better. (add a little pork hock, it'll thicken the sauce more cause collagen.. same way they do with ramen).
The heart of Adobo is soy sauce and vinegar, arguably, just the vinegar because you can also make a white adobo, it's called like that since it doesn't have the soy sauce. Everything else is your own preference, you can create your own mix and twists. I personally like my Adobo on the sweeter side with a thick sauce, but I'll eat any kinds of Adobo anyway lol
This Japanese-style adobo looks really good. The heart of the adobo is the medley of the saltiness of the soy sauce with the sourness of the vinegar. _Sake_ is actually a good addition to remove some of the smell of the pork. But instead of adding sugar, you could add _mirin_ instead so that it can blend more easily with the sauce. One of the key ingredients that was missing was the boiled egg that usually go with adobo. And you can elevate it further by making it in the style of _ajitsuke tamago_ (ramen eggs) with a firm white but creamy yolk.
There's actually adobo recipes that doesn't use soy sauce but use salt or fish sauce instead. The common ingredients as far as I know is vinegar, garlic, black pepper, and bay leaf, then you can play around to what other ingredients you want to use.
@@MrEmrys24 I've never had white adobo, so the soy sauce version is what I'm familiar with. But it just goes to show that there isn't just "one recipe" for it. The essence of the dish is preserved in Hiro's recipe and that's what's most important.
@@HiroFoodinJapan Also, soy sauce in Japan is a little different from the soy sauce in the Philippines. Japanese soy sauce is sweeter and is good with sushi but Philippine's soy sauce is very salty that you can't dip your sushi in it or it'll overpower the flavor
As a Filipino myself I'd like to say WOW! that looked really delicious. As a side tip, if you have too much sauce left over from your Adobo, you can actually use that as dashi or flavoring for fried rice. You can also reduce the sauce and mix it with the rice for making Onigiri. I don't know the exact measurements since it depends on your recipe. But apparently the technique so that the Adobo is not too oily is to use just enough oil while also relying on the oil that comes out of the pork fat itself when cooking the dish. You can also caramelize the leftover sauce by adding more soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and water and reducing that until it's syrupy.
There are many ways to cook Adobo, I even saw a book about it and it's called "101 Adobo Recipes". Your recipe will make I guess the 102nd and it looks delish!
Yes, adobo is a cooking technique. So once you grasp the basics you can substitute various meat or veggies into your dish. My personal favorite is inadobong kangkong (water spinach) stem.
After cooking, let it cool and store in the fridge ovenight. Heat it up and adobo is even more delicious when eaten the day after. Also, you can cook a large batch and it lasts a couple of days (in the fridge). Easy meal for the rest of the week.
Try marinating it first for atleast 2hrs prior to cooking or overnight. Soy sauce, garlic, pepper and sugar but not too much. Remove it from the marinade then sear in small amount of oil then add your marinade mixture. Then add a little vinegar but dont stir for atleast 3 minutes. Idk why but just dont. Haha. There's so many ways to cook adobo. Good job btw
I don't stir it too after putting vinegar. Make sure to put it while the adobo is boiling as well. The reason for that is so you will not have the raw taste of vinegar. It just feels off when there is a layer of sour flavor that didn't mix well with the dish when it's supposed to go well with it, right? Also, adobo shouldn't be sour. It's a balance of savory with a little bit of tangyness. Some likes to add sugar for sweetness, but not overpowering, to enhance the flavor. 😊 My preference is a spicy adobo with pork and chicken mixed.
The only the sake and the oyster sauce are ingredients I don‘t put in my adobo. And I don‘t sauté anything. Just put all the ingredients together, bring to a boil and simmer for up to two hours to decrease the liquid. In any case, adobo will always taste good. It’s difficult to get this dish wrong. Glad you appreciate Filipino food!
Thank you for appreciating Filipino food. Next time, you may try Lucky Me instant Pancit Canton (original flavor or Calamansi flavor). Otherwise, you also cook Bicol Express and Sinigang With pork or shrimp. Look forward to this.
I dont saute my adobo. I put all the ingredients in a pot except for the vinegar. let it cook until meat is tender and the sauce has reduced. Then put the vinegar, no stirring, let it simmer for a few minutes to let the vinegar cook. Then let the sauce reduce even further.
As for someone who can cook adobo in a few different ways like me, you did a great job and the choice of meat which is the pork belly is perfect, the sake is also a good addition to the dish, I don't usually add oyster sauce, so maybe I'll try adding it to my adobo recipe haha, it looks good and I can smell it just by watching you guys haha
I like the way you added sake on it, it kinda gives a little Japanese twist on it. I do the adobo the same way as you do it, adobo can be prepared in different depending on location. I sometimes add pineapple to it to make it sweeter. 😁
by the way, do be careful with the whole peppercorns. it might be spicy when eaten 😅 and the bay leaf may taste bitter. it's more to give the adobo aroma but not really meant to be eaten 😉
hi, guys! I, defo. wanna try to cook more delicious dishes from PH! I am Polish and have many friends from PH. Last time I managed to cook my 1st adobo chicken, yummy! I also post it on my channel. I wonder how yous prepare your adobo? There are so many different ways to do it!
I usually put pineapple chunks in when I cook adobo instead of sugar and a lot of ginger too. If I'm up for it, I also put green chili for some spice. At times, I also add Sprite or carbonated drink that's light in color instead of sugar. Also, when paired with plain steamed rice, adding/mixing the adobo sauce with the rice is in itself is already tasty and can fill you up in a meal.
my version is also marinated, and cooked in low fire until liquid ingredients are absorbed and the oil from the meat are extracted during the cooking process. But he definitely did a good job in making this version which im definitely going to try the next time i cook adobo
My mom uses pork belly, chicken and chicken liver! The liver really gives the dry sauce/oil meaty flavour ☺️ we call it Adobong tuyo or dried, the soy sauce and chicken juices is dried and sucked up by the crispy and caramelized meat.
Try adding 7-up soda or Sprite lemon soda instead of water when boiling it for 1 hour. Sounds weird but you must try it. I guarantee you the taste of it will improve by a ton it will add a sweet kick and the sauce will be thicker perfect with rice. You can thank me later. New subscriber here by the way. Love from Philippines ❤️
Adobo Ingredient without measurementz(atleast for my family) Pork(pick something with equal fat to meat ratio) Garlic(tons of it) Soy sauce(to your liking) Vinegar(to your liking) Bay leaf(optional) Bird's eye chili(siling labuyo, also optional) Boiled Egg(optional) Fired Potato(cubed, also optional)
Adding sake (alcohol) is more true to adobo's origin which is European from Spain . The Philippines being colonial adapted that dish . The name itself ADOBO means in Spanish STEW, with spices , WINE , vinegar as well as soy sauce(Chinese influence)added later , molasses for color and sweetness, all these ingredients have preservative properties. European stews always add an alcoholic component in their stews/adobo. So sake is spot on .
Yown Sarap ng Adobo Nagutom ako Bgla Now palang makaka watch paps. :) RIDE SAFE SAYO IDOL Pa SHOUT OUT AKO SA NEXT VLOG MO IDOL SALAMAT 🤜🤛 Sana po maka pag Colab tayo dito sa rizal hehe 🤜🤛ZZ2
The addition of sake (or Shaoxing wine if you're Chinese) is a common/general technique (not practiced in Filipino cooking) to remove the funk (bad smell) when you're cooking protein such as fish, pork, chicken or beef. Of course you can use vinegar but not every dish calls for a vinegar. Sake and shaoxing wine is acid neutral so it makes perfect sense to use it for this purpose. You should try it.
Next time. Try using sprite (lemon soda) as a substitute for sugar and water and cover it for an minute or hour while boiling to evaporate the liquid to the sauce. Personally the sugar/sweetness of the soda taste better. But that's only my opinion. And also adobo has 4 elements. Sourness, Saltiness, Sweetness and spice but this four should not overpowering with each other, it has to be balance, unlike in sinigang where the main highlight was the sourness. But Overall your pork adobo looks Oishi! Goodluck!
I really enjoy how adventurous you are in cooking dishes that you’ve never even tried before. Also, it is apparent that you have natural cooking instincts. I think I will try some of the Japanese touches you add to traditional Filipino recipes. Thank you for these fun videos!
reduce the sauce after an hour of cooking it with a lid, add sugar and if you like things spicy, add spicy flavoring. me personally i add vinegar with crushed labuyo(chilies)
You can tell if a adobo is good, when the you see fat is already separating from the sauce. I also love that you put garlic first before the onion, it's the filipino way. though i recommend you put more garlic next time, filipino are very generous on garlic specially on their adobo.
to improve the dish, marinate the pork in soy sauce, chopped garlic, brown sugar mixture overnight. dont throw away the marinate, cook the pork in its own marinate after sauteeing the garlic and pork. and then put water. after an hour of cooking, put the fire into medium to high heat, and reduce the sauce, you can taste and adjust to your liking, but reduce the sauce into more like heavier sauce.
Usually filipinos tend to exaggerate in gate keeping their tradition when another country does it wrong. It's very nice to see these comments that agree that adobo is a dish that can be cooked in your own preference as long as you don't lose the essencial ingredients. As a home cook, this is very well made. Sake is hard to find here and I really want to try your adobo style.
Thank you for watching! Check out another Filipino video 👉 (th-cam.com/video/rQONS1vD83E/w-d-xo.html)
Most Filipinos don't put onions.
you can also try bicol express its very popular in bicol
Let the sauce reduce after removing the meat. I guarantee it's gonna be even yummier!
Put more onions!
You have to marinate the pork first before cooking it next time. Then you cook the marinate with the pork as a sauce.

How about using low sodium soy sauce? 😃
If you show this to a Filipino and don’t show how you cooked it, every Filipino would say this is Adobo. Good job! 😊
Yay! Thank you!
So you're basically saying that the way he cooked it isn't in the ways of the Adobo? lol

Our adobo can reach up to 3days and still more delicious 😁
oishi = masarap ( in Filipino language)
Even outside the fridge, adobo will last for a few days.
Yeah because of seasoning of adobo that why it last longer
You used a regional adobo dish, that is because you used sugar.
Try the traditional one with no sugar, it tastes good!
You can also try adding potatoes, or mushrooms, or fried tofu. 😋
Sounds delicious!
Here a dumb tip
Cook a huge portion of adobo and save the excess adobo, and adobo sauce. So you could make an addition to your fried rice
Fried rice with adobo sounds great! I'll make a huge portion next time!

You should try fusion- Adobo sushi!!. We've tried it with chicken adobo wrapped in rice like sushi and dipped in its sauce. We loved it!!!
Looks AMAZING!!! Pork belly is the best choice for adobo, the most flavorful cut because of the fats in it
wow your adobo looks delicious, in Cebu, we called that, Humba. Try adding salted beans next time, it will surely surely improve its taste. :)

The name itself ADOBO means in Spanish STEW, with spices , WINE , vinegar as well as soy sauce(Chinese influence)added later , molasses for color and sweetness, all these ingredients have preservative properties. European stews always add an alcoholic component in their stews/adobo. So sake is spot on .
try to cook bestik tagalog.similar to adobo difference more on onion and instead of vinegar ..calamansi juice will put ..

Thank you for watching!
I'm getting fascinated with this No-Face Food Channel.
Your wife is like Nezuko-chan but more adorable
The addition of sake (or Shaoxing wine if you're Chinese) is a common/general technique (not practiced in Filipino cooking) to remove the funk (bad smell) when you're cooking protein such as fish, pork, chicken or beef. Of course you can use vinegar but not every dish calls for a vinegar. Sake and shaoxing wine is acid neutral so it makes perfect sense to use it for this purpose. You should try it.
Don't forget to open the cover of cooking wear to release the acidity of the vinegar for at least 15 mins... Whilst cooking it
Next time. Try using sprite (lemon soda) as a substitute for sugar and water and cover it for an minute or hour while boiling to evaporate the liquid to the sauce. Personally the sugar/sweetness of the soda taste better. But that's only my opinion. And also adobo has 4 elements. Sourness, Saltiness, Sweetness and spice but this four should not overpowering with each other, it has to be balance, unlike in sinigang where the main highlight was the sourness. But Overall your pork adobo looks Oishi! Goodluck!
I grew up eating adobo ( filipino american woman here). To my surprise, I made some last night and my boyfriend's boys ate it all.
We Filipinos prefer Pork Meat with the skin attached.
I really enjoy how adventurous you are in cooking dishes that you’ve never even tried before. Also, it is apparent that you have natural cooking instincts. I think I will try some of the Japanese touches you add to traditional Filipino recipes. Thank you for these fun videos!
reduce the sauce after an hour of cooking it with a lid, add sugar and if you like things spicy, add spicy flavoring. me personally i add vinegar with crushed labuyo(chilies)
not a fan of adobo baboy, anyone can cook it. you know what's good Filipino food? Calderetang Kambing! only several Filipinos can do it
Hiro-san your adobo is better than mine juicier.....
I'm Filipino, I like how you cokked your adobo...
Looks good Hiro san
Thats also my favorite recipe, looks so delicious!
Your adobo looks so yummilicious! Great job brother Hiro!
You can tell if a adobo is good, when the you see fat is already separating from the sauce. I also love that you put garlic first before the onion, it's the filipino way. though i recommend you put more garlic next time, filipino are very generous on garlic specially on their adobo.
Your wife became chubby if u always feed her delicious foods. 😍😍
Why hide your face..are you wanted??? 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for trying and cooking filpino food were proud of you guys thank you.
Very good for a first time 👍😁👏👏👏👏👏
Every Filipino has their own take with their Adobo. Mine, I put a little bit of oyster sauce in the end 2 minutes before I turn off the stove.
Yoku dekita … 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😋
Thank you!
to improve the dish, marinate the pork in soy sauce, chopped garlic, brown sugar mixture overnight. dont throw away the marinate, cook the pork in its own marinate after sauteeing the garlic and pork. and then put water. after an hour of cooking, put the fire into medium to high heat, and reduce the sauce, you can taste and adjust to your liking, but reduce the sauce into more like heavier sauce.
I think this is my new favorite cooking channel ^_^
My family puts the meat and rice all together and pour sauce all over 😍
Thats why adobo is Filipino authetic fav dish. Its love by all
You can add pineapple chunks for a twist..
belly and shoulder combo for me when cooking adobo :) umai!
It's better if you try to show your face to see your actual reaction i think it would help a lot with your cooking vlogs.
Usually filipinos tend to exaggerate in gate keeping their tradition when another country does it wrong. It's very nice to see these comments that agree that adobo is a dish that can be cooked in your own preference as long as you don't lose the essencial ingredients. As a home cook, this is very well made. Sake is hard to find here and I really want to try your adobo style.
