Adobong puti is the white version of the traditional adobo. The reason why it is white is because it doesn’t contain soy sauce that turns an ordinary adobo into dark brown color. Instead of combining soy sauce and vinegar when cooking adobo, only vinegar and salt is used. Of course the spices (garlic, peppercorns, bay leaves) and other condiments is included and essential in cooking this dish.
The cooking procedure is almost the same as the usual adobo but there is a additional process in cooking it. First, boil the meat in water with vinegar, garlic, peppercorns and bay leaves. Drain, reserve the liquid and fry the meat. Then return the broth to the meat and simmer until liquid is reduced to half. Although this adobong puti is not the same as the one served in Ibayo (by Barrio Fiesta), if you are craving to eat this dish, I guess it will not harm you to cook to satisfy your craving.
