I love to cook Filipino food, especially Chicken Adobo or as my friends call it\u00a0–\u00a0“Filipino Chicken”.\u00a0\u00a0It\u00a0fills the kitchen with a special aroma of garlic, Filipino soy sauce, and sugar cane vinegar.\u00a0\u00a0The sauce that the chicken cooks in is so flavorful that\u00a0one night, my\u00a0friend didn’t leave the table until he finished his meal and every last drop of sauce in the serving dish.<\/p>\n

Filipino soy sauce and sugar cane vinegar can be found in Asian supermarkets.\u00a0 If you\u00a0don’t have access to such\u00a0stores, try\u00a0using white vinegar and\u00a0soy sauce\u00a0that can be purchased at regular supermarkets.<\/p>\n
