Pinugot: A Hidden Filipino Stew from Morong, Rizal

Pinugot is a rare and flavorful heirloom stew from Morong, Rizal—made with small shrimp, fresh local vegetables, and a umami-filled broth enriched with blended shrimp heads. In this episode of Lutong Bahay, cookbook author Mona Pacheco-Alvendia invites us into her kitchen to share the authentic way this traditional Filipino dish is prepared. Passed down through generations, Pinugot is more than just a meal—it’s a taste of home, history, and heritage.
