In the Philippines, sinigang is one of the best things you can eat on a
cold rainy night. It's my comfort food - the hot steaming broth and
sour-salty flavor is hard to beat. I realized, however, that for some
Westerners, sinigang is not appealing at all. From the smell to the
presentation to the flavor - I have received honest comments from
friends that sinigang is just not pleasant.

Sinigang can be made with pork, beef, or fish. You also throw in
veggies such as water spinach, radish, okra, eggplant, string beans,
etc. For the flavor, you use tamarind (or a tamarind mix) and fish
sauce. To give you a better idea, check out some sinigang recipes he

My question is this: if you're not from the Philippines, do you have
something similar to sinigang? Have you tried this dish? If so, what
can you say about it? Really interested in what you have to say!
