Bulalo is one of the best Filipino dishes. Bulalo is a Philippine soup dish that is made of leg bones and marrow of beef that are boiled for so many hours.

Bulalo is a kind of food that everyone will surely like but because it is a fatty type of Philippine soup dish, most of the time other people are hesitant to try this food especially those who are health conscious. Doctors don’t allow people who have heart ailment or have a high blood pressure to eat bulalo.

The fat of bulalo is thrice of a fatty burger. Too much bulalo is not good to our health. Because of the fact that it is fatty, this food can trigger a heart attack to someone. You need to be responsible for eating bulalo because if not, it will definitely harm your health. I tried bulalo in different Filipino restaurants and I have proven that Filipinos are really good at cooking it.

If you want to create your own version of bulalo, the best place to buy a leg beef is in Tagaytay because it is cheaper than in other markets plus you can be sure that the meat is still fresh. Bulalo originated from Tagaytay because people who live there always want something hot due to the cold temperature. The last time I went there I noticed that most of the restaurants in Tagaytay offer bulalo.

I am such a fan of all Philippine soup dishes and for me bulalo is one of the best soup that we have. Other people from foreign lands sometimes don’t understand the qualities of our cuisine and I think it makes our cuisine more unique and authentic. Our cuisine is based on the culture that we have that was influenced by many countries.
