The Famous Chicken Adobo:
A Filipino Tradition
Mariah Pagan
MiraCosta Community College

Adobo is a very popular cooking process indigenous to the Philippines. The most famous dish is the chicken adobo. As the local saying goes, Philippine food was prepared by Malay settlers, spiced by the Chinese, stewed by the Spanish and hamburgerized by the Americans. Adobo is all but the last (Fare of the Country; Adobo: Spicy Stew of the Philippines,1986, para. 3). But the Spanish is the major influence in Filipino cuisines. Adobo is a Spanish word meaning marinade or seasoning. There are many cultures that have their own variation of adobo from the Spanish, Puerto Ricans, Malaysians, and of course the Filipinos.
My mother was born and raised in the Philippines. Along with her other 12 brothers and sisters, chicken adobo was among their favorite dishes prepared by their mother. As I was growing up, my mother passed on the culture, making me chicken adobo from the time I was 2 years old and even up to now. I learned, the very easy dish, from just watching her and have introduced it to my son and soon, my other children. I remember by brother’s wife making it for my nephews and niece when they were growing up and it is also a favorite of my sister. The basic adobo sauce or marinade consists of vinegar, soy sauce, and some spices. The way my mom taught me to make adobo is with apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, and the spices include a couple of bay leaves, pepper corns, fresh garlic, and ginger root, simmered for a couple of hours. While the most popular meat used in adobo is chicken, pork and fish are also variations used for adobo. The Spanish use the term adobado and use it as a marinade prior to cooking. Many of the ingredients are the same such as the apple cider vinegar, pepper, and they add chilies. The meat of choice is then marinated for 5-6 hours and some recipes call for grilling. Puerto Rican style adobo is a rub or paste for the meat. The rub or paste consists of onions, garlic, vinegar, and herbs. A pork shoulder is most commonly used with the adobo recipe. Adobo is called to be the distant cousin to the popular Malaysian dish ginataan - chicken, pork and vegetables cooked in coconut milk and garnished with vinegar and garlic. And Chinese soy sauce is a vital ingredient (Fare of the Country; Adobo: Spicy Stew of the Philippines, 1986, para. 4). The Chinese frequently traveled to the Philippines, for barter and trade. Surely some Chinese became a part of the Filipino society, plus the cultural contact, and passed on some common cuisines to include the Chinese chow mein and the similar Filipino version, pancit, egg rolls/spring rolls and lumpia, and fried rice is very much the same. Soy sauce was also introduced to the Philippines by the Chinese. Vinegar and salt was used to preserve foods; after the soy sauce introduction, it slowly replaced both. Conflict arose between the Philippines and the Spaniards leading to the Spanish colonizing the Philippines back in 1565 to 1898 and ruled the Filipinos for 333 years. With the Filipinos adopting their ideologies, the Spaniards translated their social, economic, and political culture to the Philippine Islands. Their teachings had a great impact with the language, food, and religion, the Roman Catholic Church. The Spanish influenced the local cooking with their version of adobo marinade and sauce. This is where adobo was introduced and manipulated to the Filipino unique taste. Americans also enjoy chicken adobo. The U.S. government assisted the Philippine Islands on becoming independent from the Spaniards and in 1935, they became self governing. From the functionalist perspective, Americans influenced the Philippines by helping advance technologies and education. With the interaction of both cultures, there was an exchange of food. This is where the Americans probably became very fond of their cuisine.
Good family time is spent in the kitchen cooking and eating. Due to Western influence, food is often eaten using flatware, but the primary pairing of utensils used at a Filipino dining table is that of spoon and fork, not knife and fork (Philippines: Eating Habits and Hospitality, 2007, para. 2). For some, the traditional way of eating is with the hands. I remember my mom used to feed me with her hands when we ate rice and fried fish. Food is also served all at once rather than serving in courses. This way, everyone can eat simultaneously. Filipinos are also very hospitable, with friends and family always invited for meal time; offering even a stranger to share a good meal.
The symbolic interaction of all these different cannot exist without people interacting with one another and sharing. A part of a Filipinos way of life, is the gathering in the kitchen with family and friends. They cook together and possibly sharing different recipes and their version of chicken adobo. Next they sit down at the table with all food placed in the middle of the table so everyone may eat together simultaneously. My mother has left me with a cultural blueprint, cooking and eating chicken adobo with my friends and family. Soon, I’ll be able to pass on the culture to my kids and teach them how to cook this family cuisine. The Philippine cultural particular of chicken adobo makes it recognizable by anyone who may have tried it before. From the tanginess taste of the apple cider vinegar to the kick of spice from the bay leaves and peppercorns, it is absolutely the national cuisine of the Philippines.

...to make for dinner is my juicy, deep-fried, finger lickin’ good, chicken wings. From the moist crispy skin, to the succulent white meat, it’s a mouth-watering delight. Everyone loves my chicken and asks me to make it for parties or gatherings. Often my boyfriend helps me prepare the chicken, which is a nice way for us to spend time together and I get to teach him how to cook. First you will have to make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and if not then you will have to make a list and go to the super market. Depending on how many people you will be serving will determine how many pounds of chicken to buy. 2-pound party wings are enough to feed my boyfriend and me. I like to use a blend of seasonings that consists of Lawry’s season salt, Goya adobo, Goya sazon, and any brand garlic salt and black pepper. You’ll need flour, eggs, and milk for the batter, and oil to fry the chicken. Nonfood items needed are a deep fryer, a bowl for mixing and an extra-large Zip Lock bag. After you gather all the ingredients you’ll start by filling the deep fryer half way and heating it up to 425 degrees F. Wash the chicken thoroughly and add the seasonings, then set aside to make the batter. In a bowl beat 2 eggs, ¼ cup milk and a dash of the seasoning mixture. Get a zip lock bag and fill the bag half way with the flour, adding some of the seasoning mixture to season the flour. Dip the chicken wings into the egg then place in the zip lock bag and shake it....

...appealing/unappealing to different types of chicken farmers? Appealing: Like many other fowl, the chickens are social birds and their society has a definite social structure. They establish a hierarchical social organization, though fighting and pecking after the birds reach sexual maturity. The comb on the head of chicken is a means of preserving the peck order, and a submissive bird raising its head too high would be pecked by one or more its superiors until its head was lowered. The more productive strains tend to be more cannibalistic, even sometimes had to put a sack over the extremely productive one. In order to reduce chicken mortality due to cannibalism , the chicken farmers use debeaking, which doesn’t interfere with the formation of the peck order but reduces the efficiency of beak as a weapon. The debeaking process make the chicken subject considerate trauma resulting in a temporary weight loss and the retardation of egg production for at least a week. The debeaked chicken would enter a permanent regression or own its deadly weapon again if the beak is cut too short or too long. Compare to debeaking operation, ODI contact lens which would cause cataract to poultry is the product to actually confront the cause of chicken cannibalization rather than just minimize its effects. And the red color environment caused by lenses affects the chicken’s ability to act out its aggressions.

...of egg-producing farm chickens. This development came after an accidental discovery that partially blind chickens demonstrate more manageable and productive behaviors that are valuable to chicken farmers. Market Trends As within many industries, the poultry and egg production market has evolved dramatically in the last century— from small backyard barnyards to today’s high-production farms of more than 2.5 million birds. Due to the varied demands and operations necessitated by this current, broad spectrum of customers (here, chicken farmers), the current market is best understood by segmenting it first by flock size. As shown in Exhibit 4 of the case study, we see the percentage growth (decline) of each flock size segment as it relates to farm size and chicken count from 1964 to 1996. Based on this data, farms with flock sizes less than 10,000 chickens have dramatically reduced in this time period while farms with flock sizes larger than 10,000 have consistently grown in each of the four high-volume segments. Additionally, the market data also demonstrates a significant progression of concentration both regionally as well as in the nation’s number of industry producers. In 1974, 80% of the laying hens in the United States were housed in just 3% of the country’s chicken farms. Regionally speaking, the farms have evolved into concentrations in where just three states—California, North Carolina, and Georgia—account for more 25% of the nation’s chickens. Finally, additional...

...You’re cooking your chicken wrong. Forty percent of 120 participants in a new study conducted by the University of California, Davis are, anyway. Christine Bruhn, PhD, director of the Center for Consumer Research at UC Davis, says she was “really surprised” at the number, which represents the amount of participants who undercook their chicken. "I know people do that on purpose with burgers, but with chicken I always thought people were more aware of making sure it was fully cooked,” she told us. The majority of participants who undercooked their meat were a full 14 degrees below the the recommended 165 degree F threshold, and more than half of those who grilled their chicken were 18 degrees under. “The grill is really hot; it’s harder to control and that chicken usually looks pretty darn cooked on the outside,” says Bruhn of the common misstep. The problem is that this fowl fumble can lead to illness, including the dreaded salmonella infection. So what can you do to make sure your signature stir fry doesn’t make anyone sick? Below, Bruhn shares the basic rules of the game with us. Use a meat thermometer. Slicing through the meat to check for color won’t get the job done. “Consumers do it all the time, but going off appearance just doesn’t work,” says Bruhn. And just because your recipe says to cook a chicken breast for 10 minutes doesn’t mean that’ll get you to a safe temperature. “That doesn’t account for how thin or thick the meat is or how hot your stove is,” she adds...

...lenses for chickens. These lenses offer farmers a unique cost saving opportunity and are more humane and efficient than the current de-beaking method. ODI, with help from New World Plastics has developed this commercially viable technology to reduce cannibalism by inducing astigmatism. With a patent holding off competition for at least three years, ODI needs to decide how to price contact lenses to ensure high adoption and profitability which will fuel ODI’s ability to circumvent competition through further investment in R&D – a key requirement to be able to establish themselves as a multiproduct, multimarket company which can provide effective service anywhere in the country. ODI should initially target Large Farms with 100,000+ birds with this product at a price of $0.16/pair because this contact lens technology yields the following superior results versus current debeaking method: greater reduction in cannibalism by 4.5%, zero chicken traumas, no risk versus medium risk with de-beaking, and a reduction in feed costs. There are several segments within the poultry industry – Small, Medium, and Large farms characterized by 10,000 or less birds, 10,000-50,000 birds, and 50,000+ birds, respectively. Based on the case data, the US Poultry industry is consolidating at a rapid rate. For instance, in 1964, 1.2M farms represented 38.3% of the entire chicken industry and managed 343M birds. Five years later, the number of farms managing roughly the same number of chickens shrunk to...

The Red Wheelbarrow

...The Red Wheelbarrow so much depends upon a red wheel barrow glazed with rain water beside the white chickens. -- William Carlos Williams (1923) To Paint a Picture Just as the opening line of William Carlos William’s 1923 poem “The Red Wheelbarrow” reads, “So much depends.” So much depends on the reader’s interpretation of this poem. How was the author intending his work to be read? One can argue that Williams wished his audience to paint a mental picture of the poem, and then draw their own conclusions based on the imagery contained therein. The poem, consisting of only sixteen words, follows a basic metrical structure. It consists of eight lines, which are broken into four verses. Each verse consists of a dimeter, followed by a monometer. At first reading, the student may want to read the two lines of each verse together as one. Reading the poem in this fashion does not bring attention to its individual parts. The student should focus on the lineation of the poem while reading it, and follow the metrical structure that is laid out. By slowing down and taking in the poem on line at a time, the reader will more easily be able to paint a mental picture of the poem. This seems to have been how the author intended the poem to be read. The imagery of “The Red Wheelbarrow” can be compared to that of a classic painting. The painting is easy on the eyes, nice to look at. If the viewer can picture himself inside the canvas setting, he may be able to...
