Sinigang na Hipon sa Sampaloc

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Sinigang na Hipon sa Sampaloc or Filipino Shrimp Soup in tamarind broth is a quick and easy soup dish that you can prepare for lunch or dinner. This dish is quite flexible with the vegetable ingredients because you can mix and match your preferred sinigang veggies and you can also add some long green chili or finger pepper to make it bit spicy.

Sinigang na Hipon

There are many ways to cook Sinigang na Hipon; this recipe is just one of them. For this recipe, daikon or white radish was used along with common veggies such as okra and tomato. The good thing about this Sinigang na hipon version is its simplicity. There are minimal veggies involved, but still the outcome was good and I really find it to be comforting. I always feel some comfort after having warm sour soup even in warm weather.

There is another Shrimp sinigang recipe that I previously featured which is somewhat similar, except that it made use of more veggies and I also used a pouch of sinigang powder for convenience. I think that both recipes are good and full of flavor. The reason behind this is the shrimp that was used for both recipes. If you will look closely, I used clean shrimp with shell and head still intact. Most of the flavor comes from the head of the shrimp, and that is what makes the soup flavorful.

Speaking of flavorful seafood sinigang, I remember the sinigang na panga ng tuna (tuna jaw) and sinigang tuna belly that I always make when I was still in the Philippines.
