MANILA, Philippines — The original Sisig has certainly come a long way from its original form, which is pork face or mask cooked to a perfect balance between tenderness and crispiness of the skin and served on a sizzling plate.
It often serves as a pulutan for friendly drinking sessions with friends, as an appetizer, or as a viand, or main course itself.
The Sisig is so versatile that it has spawned several variations, including Chicken Sisig and Bangus Sisig. This one is Chef Jackie Ang Po’s American version with Japanese garnish, which she recently featured in a cooking demo for Potatoes USA at the recently concluded World Food Expo 2025 (WOFEX 2025).
