Insights from 'Tikim' by Doreen Fernandez
In her celebrated book Tikim: Essays on Philippine Food and Culture, Doreen Fernandez highlights the adaptability and resourcefulness of Filipino cuisine. She describes it as "a constant improvisation," shaped by historical influences from China, Spain, and America, yet retaining its unique identity through local ingredients and techniques. Fernandez emphasizes that Filipino food is deeply tied to family, community, and celebration, making it more than just nourishment—it’s a reflection of shared experiences and cultural values.
Fernandez also explores the balance of flavours—sweet, salty, sour, and bitter—showcasing how Filipino dishes like adobo and sinigang exemplify this harmony. At RoniB's Kitchen, we embrace these principles, ensuring each product embodies the authenticity and complexity Fernandez so passionately described.
