🍮 Usage
Prepare meat: Slice pork or chicken into thin pieces.
Season: Sprinkle the Tocino Mix evenly over the meat.
Marinate: Mix thoroughly and let it stand for at least 1 hour (overnight for stronger flavor).
Cook: Pan-fry with a little water until meat is tender, then let it caramelize in its own glaze.
Serve: Best enjoyed with garlic fried rice (sinangag) and fried egg (itlog)—the classic “tosi-log” meal.
💡 Tip: For juicier tocino, marinate overnight in the refrigerator before cooking.
