Escabeche

(Eskabeche)

Escabeche is an internationally popular dish consisting of fried or poached meat or fish and various vegetables, served together in a flavorful vinegar sauce filled with herbs, spices, and onions. The Spaniards brought escabeche to Guam, where it is mostly prepared only with fish and called eskabeche.


There is also a Filipino version of the dish, distinguished by the usage of thickening agents such as cornstarch or flour. Escabeche is most commonly served cold at various festivities, when it is typically placed alongside other fish dishes.
