Although
Filipino food is one of complexity with its varied origins of Malay, Chinese
and Spanish, yet the cooking methods are rather simple. Basically, the
four cooking methods that support the foundation of Filipino cookery are
boiling (nilaga), grilling (ihaw), roasting and steaming (halabos). These
cooking methods form the very basis of the modern-day demand of healthy
cooking. It was not until the arrival of the Spanish that the method of
sauteeing (guisado) was "Filipinized" and introduced into the Filipino
kitchen, adding to the basic forms of Filipino cookery.
