Dinuguan

Dinuguan is a Filipino pork stew with a dark sauce made from pig’s blood. Lalaine Manalo’s recipe uses pork belly, onion, garlic, ginger, fish sauce and vinegar. The meat simmers in water before the blood is stirred in, followed by brown sugar and long siling haba chillies. Continued cooking thickens the sauce.^[1]

Manalo notes that other preparations include offal such as ears, intestines, heart, lungs or kidneys. The stew is served with steamed rice or puto rice cakes, which can be dipped into the sauce.^[1]
