Inunun, Inun-unan, or Paksiw na Isda is an age-old recipe with at least two basic elements: vinegar and fish. 

It can vary with delicious additions like ginger, soy sauce, sugar, kamatis, eggplant, sitaw or batong, and others. But like adobo, this classic recipe has a base of simple ingredients. 

Different kinds of fish also contribute to the rainbow of flavors Inunun has to offer. 

Being an island nation with 60% of Filipinos living at or near a coastline, and 10 of our largest cities at the coast (Philippines Environment Monitor, 2003 World Bank), it is no surprise that Inunun is common all over the country. 

It’s important that we sustain our fish supplies, and marine protected areas or MPAs, is one way this can be done. Learn more about MPAs at Philippine Wildlife Art.
