How amazing it is to be human. The things we disregard, the things we hold dear, the things we . I am now a forty-two year old woman who has gone through life, seen too much of life and yet, every time I cook a pot of tinolang manok, a memory from an already distant past can still grip my heart and tear it apart.

I was five years old when my parents separated and soon a!er, my father began another family. On one of the irregular occasions we did visit him, we~my brothers, my father, his new wife and their then 2-year old son~gathered around the table for a lunch of chicken tinola. In the Philippines, or at least in our household, all edible parts of the fowl~liver, gizzards, neck and all, are used in the soup. As there is only ONE liver in chicken and it is considered the most nutritious, it was usually given to the precious child of the house. When my father started to ladle our portions of the soup, I reached out for my bowl with a certainty that only comes from the naivety of a child that THE liver was in mine. Instead, my father, cooing as he did, plopped the coveted piece into his boy’s. I was too young then to explain the onslaught of tears, to even understand what I was crying about. All I was the desperate need to be back home at my mother’s house. My mother’s house where I would have been the ONE with the liver in her bowl.

Caroline says June 14, 2016 at 5:32 am That was a heartbreaking yet beautiful story about your childhood memories of tinola. Perhaps THE moment when you for the first time experienced not being dads number 1. How bittersweet memories can be… I just took a couple of chicken thighs out of the freezer, and I was actually going to make sinigang tonight, but I think I just changed my mind; I’ll be making tinola. REPLY

Cecile says September 13, 2014 at 3:41 am Dear Lalaine, I almost felt your sadness when you did not get the liver in your soup. Being a filipino, I share the same love of chicken liver and all sorts of liver for that matter. My children are eurasians and grew up in a mixed asian/european household. I could never impart them my love for the liver of any sort and felt sad in a way that they do not share my taste for it. They can not even understand why I like liver, aside from liver pastej. I like your blogg very much. It is very well written and I enjoy your introductory stories in the beginning of the recipes. I am so glad that I discovered it. More power. REPLY
Lalaine says September 14, 2014 at 3:24 pm Thanks, Cecile REPLY
marcelina valverde says July 19, 2014 at 1:52 pm Just made a big pot of this on Monday and have been savoring the soups simple yet very satisfying broth for my nauseous tummy. Nostalgically comforting because of the warm childhood memories of enjoying this classic dish… REPLY
