We have it with everything (meals, meat, and even pancit), at any time of day. <strong>Rice porridge<\/strong> isn&#8217;t exclusive to our cuisine; different countries have their own take on this popular comfort food. We also have a wide variation of it, ranging from <strong>arroz caldo, goto, and lugaw<\/strong>. But can you identify which is which? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Lugaw<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The mother of all rice porridge. Lugaw is a classic. Simple, clean rice porridge, with a little <em>patis <\/em>to taste. Sprinkle on little ginger bits, spring onion, and an extra hard-boiled egg if you&#8217;re feeling fancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"770\" height=\"552\" src=\"https:\/\/sih.booky.ph\/eyJrZXkiOiJibG9nXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDE5XC8wNlwvMDYxNzQ2MDdcL0JLWS1FTi1CdWxhY2FuTHVnYXdLaXRjaGVuLTMwLmpwZyIsImJ1Y2tldCI6ImJvb2t5cmVwb3J0In0=\" alt=\"lugaw, filipino food, how to cook lugaw\" class=\"wp-image-121460\" decoding=\"async\"><figcaption>Photo from Booky | Bulacan Lugaw Kitchen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>Goto<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Lugaw meats something new. To make goto, once you&#8217;ve learned how to cook lugaw, you&#8217;re halfway there. The difference between lugaw and goto is that the latter has meat mixed in, usually ox tripe. It&#8217;s sometimes known as &#8220;beef lugaw.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"770\" height=\"552\" src=\"https:\/\/sih.booky.ph\/eyJrZXkiOiJibG9nXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDE5XC8wNlwvMDYxNzQ2MTBcL2dvdG8tbHVnYXdhbi1yZXB1YmxpYy5qcGciLCJidWNrZXQiOiJib29reXJlcG9ydCJ9\" alt=\"goto, how to cook goto, filipino food\" class=\"wp-image-121461\" decoding=\"async\"><figcaption>Photo from Booky | Lugawan Republic<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>Arroz Caldo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can tell from the name, it as dubbed by the Spanish as arroz caldo, or &#8220;hot rice.&#8221; The clear difference it has to lugaw&#8217;s base is the defining gingery taste.
