Sisig is a popular Filipino dish usually prepared by chopping boiled
pig’s ear and liver, then serving it with chili peppers and sour
liquid–usually calamansi or vinegar. The term “sisig” is actually a
Kapampangan word which means to “snack on something sour.”
Interesting fact: Sisig is said to be invented in the
1970s by Lucita Cunanan, popularly known as the “Sisig Queen.” Her
signature pork dish brought fame not only to her restaurant, “Aling
Lucing’s,” but also to the entire city of Angeles in Pampanga. Sadly,
Cunanan was hammered to death in her home in 2008.
