Sinabawang Tahong

Although winter season is yet to come and temperatures are still relatively comfortable, I’ve been preparing lately a lot of soups and stews for our dinner meals. Sometimes nilaga, the other day arroz caldo and most times, sinabawang tahong. With just a few ingredients and a refreshing ginger-based broth, this tinola-style mussel soup is great to enjoy year round.
