Bagoong or fish paste is one of the most well known trade mark of Filipinos especially in the area of Pangasinan. Bagoong is usually serve as side dish or Pinoy recipe ingredient.

Bagoong has extreme salty taste and should be taken with care for people with kidney problems. In the Philippines, during early time,  bagoong is a sign of poverty because it is one of the most affordable food in the country.

As the years passed by,  bagoong became one of the best exported food in the Philippines, and as it happens, this food that once became a sign of poverty for Filipinos became one of the main source of income for some of our country men.

This recipe is my most favorite among all those recipes I’ve shared in my previous posts.  In my home I always have a stock of ginataang bagoong in a jar which I am going to share to you in this post. To make ginataang bagoong,  you need to prepare the following ingredients:

  • 150 grams bagoong
  • 1 pc medium sized ginger,chopped in small sizes.
  • 2 pcs. medium sized onion,  chopped  like ginger
  • 4 cloves garlic also chopped

  • When vinegar is completely absorbed by bagoong, it is time to add the coconut milk.
