📖 Key Information
Filipino cuisine includes the food traditions of more than a hundred ethnolinguistic groups across the Philippine archipelago. Most widely known Filipino dishes come from the culinary practices of groups such as the Ilocano, Pangasinan, Kapampangan, Tagalog, Bicolano, Visayan, Chavacano, and Maranao communities. The dishes associated with these groups evolved over the centuries from a largely indigenous (largely Austronesian) base shared with maritime Southeast Asia with varied influences from Chinese, Spanish, and American cuisines, in line with the major waves of influence that had enriched the cultures of the archipelago, and adapted using indigenous ingredients to meet local preferences.
