The secret to Tocino lies in its distinctive, intense marinade. The meat, which constitutes $74\%$ of the composition, is cured in a mixture of cane sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and pineapple juice. It is these ingredients that give it a unique balance of flavours: sweetness, umami, and delicate sourness. When fried in a pan, the cane sugar caramelizes, coating the pork pieces with a glossy, slightly crunchy layer that is the culinary hallmark of this dish.

The brand name, Pinoy Kitchen (where "Pinoy" is the colloquial name for a Filipino person), clearly refers to the product's roots and authenticity. Although the product itself is produced for the European market in compliance with strict quality and safety standards, the recipe remains faithful to Filipino tradition. Pinoy Kitchen is a brand created to deliver the true flavours of Filipino cuisine to residents of Europe, which is a fascinating blend of Spanish, American, and Chinese influences.

This is the essence of comfort food that transports you to the sunny Philippines with its taste, regardless of the season. It is an ideal option for those looking for exotic, sweet-and-salty accents in their everyday menu, as well as for Asian cuisine enthusiasts eager to try something new. Pinoy Kitchen ensures that every portion of Tocino is easy to prepare while maintaining the depth and authenticity of the Filipino flavour, which is both sweet and deeply meaty.
