Barrio Fiesta: Bringing Authentic Filipino Flavors to Your Home

    For those who are not familiar with bagoong, it's considered stinky, yet it's an ubiquitous condiment throughout the Philippine islands. Each region has its own particular ingredients and process of making. One of the most popular versions is Bagoong Alamang, which is prepared by fermenting krill or very tiny shrimps. It's relatively solid compared to the bagoong made with fish, which is almost pure liquid.

    If you're a Filipino, you know that bagoong is an essential ingredient in many traditional Filipino dishes. It's made by fermenting small shrimps (alamang) with garlic, onion, tomatoes, and pork. The process gives it a salty and savory taste that is highly addictive. Bagoong can be eaten as a condiment or as a whole dish, and it's usually paired with steamed rice.

    The Barrio Fiesta Bagoong Sauteed Shrimp Paste, their specialty, is the perfect condiment for any Filipino food lover. It's versatile and can be used for cooking Pinakbet, Binagoongang Baboy, or other exciting dishes. Additionally, it's an ideal pair for Kare-Kare, Green Mango, Ensaladang Mangga, among others. 

    The Barrio Fiesta Bagoong Sauteed Shrimp Paste has a pure and authentic taste. It's not too salty, and it's not too sweet. It has a perfect balance of flavors that makes it an excellent dip or cooking ingredient. One of the best things about Barrio Fiesta Bagoong is that it's Halal Certified and has the GMP seal for Good Manufacturing Practice. Furthermore, BF invested in the ingredients, machinery, and personnel to comply with strict U.S. standards, so it's also HACCP certified.

    Filipinos love to use bagoong as a dip for green mangoes and jicama. It's a favorite way of consuming these fruits, and it's a healthier alternative to plain white rock salt. Bagoong is also an essential flavor ingredient in many iconic Filipino dishes, such as pinakbet and kare-kare. Pinakbet is a vegetable dish that's usually cooked with bagoong to give it a unique flavor. Kare-Kare, on the other hand, is a stew that's made with oxtail, tripe, or beef and peanut sauce. Bagoong is usually served on the side as a condiment.
