Product Description
It would not be far-fetched to say that the adobo is something that defines the Filipino. It is an integral part of Philippine culture that unifies but at the same time, shows diversity with the multitude of versions. So much a part it is of Filipino life that EVERYONE has a story, opinion, or technique of preparing adobo. The Adobo Chronicles gives one an insight to this by presenting outstanding recipes discovered at the annual Adobo Festival (a brainchild of the respected food writer, Doreen Fernandez) held in Silay City, Negros Occidental, and, a collection of essays that show how the adobo has been part of the lives of many a Filipino. No collection is complete without this book on, not just adobo as food, but adobo as a cultural icon for Filipinos.
