    Canned sardines are normally part of every Filipino household. It is often bought to serve as an emergency food in case anything happens (like a typhoon or any other calamity), plus many people consider it cheap and very convenient.

    However, the prices of canned goods suddenly increased, so even the cheapest food option for Filipinos is becoming a little more expensive and harder to obtain.

    Thankfully, Filipinos thought of a way to make their own homemade sardines, and they were able to make use of the most available ingredient in the country - bangus.

    Origin of Spanish Style Bangus Sardines

    Although there is no record on how it all began, the discovery of the dish was very much unexpected. All of a sudden, lots of people are already doing their own home-made sardines.

    The homemade version is also considered much healthier than canned ones which are usually filled with various types of add-ons and preservatives.

    Making it Spanish-style suits the taste and the overall quality of the milkfish, and is also very beneficial health-wise thanks to the ingredients used.
