Note 1: Sukang iloco is a type of vinegar made from fermented sugar cane juice. This type of vinegar has a bold flavor that can be compared to wine vinegars. You may use the following as substitutes: cane vinegar, white vinegar, and distillled vinegar.
Note 2: Fresh chicken livers are commonly used to make sisig. It had to be boiled and mashed to have a paste-like consistency. The use of liver spread or liver pate is more for convenience in case chicken livers are not available.
Note 3: Limes are great to use for sisig. However, calamansi (calamondin) is a better fit if available.
