Dinengdeng (also called inabraw) is a dish of the Ilocano people of the Philippines, similar to pinakbet.[1] It is classified as a bagoong (fermented fish sauce) soup-based dish. Unlike pinakbet, dinengdeng contains fewer vegetables more soup base.[2]
A simple meal to prepare was necessary for the Ilocano, who often labored in labor-intensive agriculture industries. Another characteristic of Ilocano cuisine is that dishes are either salty or bitter which means dishes that went well with rice. Dinengdeng, like its more festal sibling pinakbet, is a dish best enjoyed with rice. However, because dinengdeng requires fewer ingredients, it is able to be prepared daily.[3]
