Kinilnat

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kinilnat, or ensalada, is an Ilocano salad. The leaves, shoots, blossoms, or the other parts of the plant are boiled and drained and dressed with bagoong (preferably) or patis, and sometimes souring agents like calamansi or cherry tomatoes are added, as well as freshly ground ginger.

Popular vegetables that are made into this dish include the shoots and leaves of the sweet potato and bitter melon, shoots and fruits of the string bean, horseradish tree leaves and blossoms, taro, cabbage, blossoms of the West-Indian pea, and winged beans, fern shoots, or other various vegetables.
