Pakbet (Pinakbet) The traditional Filipino vegetable stew creates a traditional dining experience through its combination of delicious flavors and its very light bitter tasting elements. The recipe originated from northern Philippine regions because Ilocano people developed their culinary style by using fresh local ingredients to make their vegetable dishes.


Pakbet begins with vegetables (including eggplant and ampalaya and squash and okra and string beans) which chefs prepare by cooking the vegetables together through a process of flame-simmering. The distinct flavor of pakbet comes from the use of 'bagoong' which chefs use to season the dish and which helps to neutralize the seasonal vegetables' inherent bitter taste.
The main structure of the dish contains small bits of pork meat which chefs make from pork belly while pakbet provides different options that include shrimp and vegetarian dishes. The basic components of pakbet establish its foundation through garlic and onion and tomato which serve as the main aromatic elements for the dish. The cooking process requires vegetables to enter the cooking sequence at specific times so that they achieve their optimal taste when fully cooked.
Pakbet demonstrates practical home cooking through its design which enables users to prepare meals from shared vegetables while decreasing waste through food production. The word 'pakbet' originates from the Ilocano language through the root word 'pinakebbet' which translates to "shrivel up" or "withered".
Pakbet serves as a typical Filipino dish which people usually eat with steamed white rice.
