Tosino
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tocino or tosino is a native delicacy in the Philippines, similar to that of cured hams. It is often reddish in color and tastes sweet. The name derives from the same Spanish word tocino, which is used to describe bacon, or cured meat. It is usually cooked with oil or with water depending on how moist it is wanted.
Tocino is often eaten on a bed of rice with a fried egg on top. This meal is often called "Tocilog" or "Tocino at Itlog" which literally means tocino and egg.
