I just cooked some adobo pork spare ribs. Super sarap talaga. I experimented a
little bit by putting a little bit of five spice powder with the usual adobo TSB
ingredients (toyo, suka at bawang). Sarap din ang labas. Don't put a lot though. Just
sprinkle some 5 spice powder. It's quite overpowering if you put too much of this
powder. (5 spice powder is Ngo-Hiong in Chinese).
Here is the recipe for Chinese Five Spice Powder:
How To Make Five-Spice Powder:
Five-spice powder encompasses all five flavors - sweet, sour, bitter, pungent, and
salty.
In a dry skillet, roast 2 teaspoons of Szechuan peppercorns by shaking the pan over
low to medium heat until the aroma of the peppercorns is released (about three
minutes). Grind the roasted peppercorns and 8 star anise in a blender or pepper
mill. Strain the blended seasonings. Mix in 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, 1 tablespoon
ground cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon ground fennel seeds. Grind the seasonings until
very fine. Store in an airtight container.
Tips:
Use five-spice powder sparingly, as it can be quite pungent. If desired, you can
substitute black peppercorns for the Szechuan peppercorn, and ground anise for the
star anise (use 4 teaspoons of ground anise).
