Filipinos have a way to enjoy and celebrate life with food. This cold, damp, rainy season, our Nanay's love to prepare meals that gives that nostalgic feeling and at the same time provide relief to our tummies. Writing about this Top 3 Filipino rainy day comfort foods gives me the craving.
Top 1: Champorado with Tuyo
Nothing beats the gladness this treat gives. This oh-so-creamy chocolate rice porridge cooked from, of course, rice with cocoa, drizzled with milk really hits the spot to your longing-for-warm-and-comfort tummy. It hugs your senses, relieves your hunger, and takes you back to your younger days when you just came home from school with your soaking wet uniform and Nanay's there preparing you that nice champorado in a bowl to keep you warm. Complete your meal with to you and it feels like heaven!
Top 2: Chicken Sopas
What I remember from this foodie was when I was just in elementary and our school would always have this available for our recess for only P2 a cup. This chicken sopas is just a homegrown favorite and very easy to prepare too! Just let the chicken cook in a pot of hot water, then add the macaroni. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes before you put the chopped onions. After a while, pour the evaporated milk, then add pepper and salt to taste. Serve it with a boiled egg and you're good to go :)
Other comfy foodies include arroz caldo, hot chocolate, taho, ginataan, sinigang, etc. Whatever you do, whether you're just watching tv or searching for cohiba cigars online, enjoy this season inside the house getting warm with these delicious Filipino faves with your family.
