Tokwa’t baboy

Tokwa't baboy (Tagalog for "tofu and pork") is a typical Philippine appetizer. It consists of boiled pork ears and/or pork belly (traditionally favoring pork ears and other cast-off parts) and deep-fried tofu, and is served in a mixture of soy sauce, pork broth, vinegar, chopped white onions, scallions and sometimes red or green chili peppers. It is usually served as pulutan ("snack", lit. tran: "finger food"), as a meal served with rice or as a side dish to rice porridge. Tokwa is the Lan-nang word for firm beancurd, while baboy is the Tagalog word for pork; 't is the contracted form of at, which means "and". Akin to sisig, the dish traditionally uses chopped-up pork ears and sometimes the face and snout as it was a way to help use up the less prestigious cuts, but in modern times pork belly or other standard cuts may be used alongside or instead of the ears.
