Sour-Savory Goodness of the new AJI-SINIGANG® Cube, reinvents Pinoy Sinigang

Sinigang Soup is a ‘must’ in most Pinoy households’ weekly menu. In our family, we cook sinigang twice a week, Wednesdays and Sundays. Those are the days that our family is complete. We simply love sinigang because we can customize it the way we want. We love a sinigang that has lots and lots of vegetables like kangkong, gabi (taro), radish, okra, eggplant and stringbeans. Sinigang makes our meal time perfect as everyone in the family enjoys this bowl of warm and refreshing dish in hot or cold weather conditions.

It has been observed though that most people using sinigang mixes available in the market would need to add other savory and meaty seasonings i.e. pork cube and all-in-one seasonings to achieve the ideal sinigang taste, which is not just about sourness but savory taste as well.

The new Ajinomoto® Sinigang Cube is all that you will ever need to cook Sinigang with the preferred blend of sour-savory (asim-linamnam) taste. It is perfect in providing the balanced rich, savory deliciousness and appetizing sourness to any sinigang dish. Each cube is “ZoopSiksik™” because it is packed with the right level of tamarind sourness and savory taste from meaty extracts. However you cook your sinigang, Ajinomoto® Sinigang Cube will surely give it the taste you've been wanting for. Kids and kids-at-heart will surely be surprised how this cube reinvented the taste of Pinoy Sinigang.
