>seafood
Listed below is a few Filipino dishes that I personally like that has seafood
>sinigang sa miso
most of you who have had Filipino cuisine before may be already familiar with sinigang, but this particular one is a variation that has miso. It gives sinigang a more cloudy broth and a gritty texture. Salmon head and belly or steaks of milkfish is commonly used for meat, and it also has mustard leaves in place of kangkong/water spinach in this particular variation
>paksiw na isda sa sampalok
this again is a variation of another popular Filipino dish. Unlike the traditional paksiw where pieces of fish are simmered in vinegar, onions, tomatoes, and ginger, this one only replaces vinegar with water and whole tamarinds. This is really great than the traditional one if you're planning to eat this dish on its own since it is not as powerful as the traditional one and the tamarinds give it more flavour
>sinaing na tulingan
tuna mackerel wrapped in banana leaves braised in a clay pot together with pork fat, and multiple pieces of camias/bimilimbi fruit. It is braised for long hours, my neighbour said that he braises his for 14 hours
>tahong (mussel) sisig
name's self-explanatory
>ensaladang lato
lato is a kind of seaweed, at least that's what I can tell from my intuition. This particular dish is a seaweed salad. Really fun to eat because I can pop them like roe
>litearally any grilled stuffed seafood
squid, octopus, tilapia, milkfish, etc. As long as it's stuffed with cloves of garlic, chopped onions, chopped tomatoes, minced ginger, and sometimes long chili
