Our goal is to bring back the value behind home-cooked meals especially since people choose to eat outside or even alone in this fast-paced world. Knorr aims to help more moms bring the family together through the best flavors in their cooking. -Knorr’s Brand Manager for Bouillon and Seasonings, Dhiren Karnani.  

Considering it was our first time to prepare such an unusual sinigang variant, we were all curious as to how our plates would turn out. 

After our food preparation, we got to taste all of the four sinigang dishes. Surprisingly, I think we did well considering it was our first time. Moms’ combined forces could produce excellent results indeed. #LutongNanay has never been this fascinating.

“Cooking is a force for good. When a mother cooks, it is often seen as a way for her to ensure her family’s well being…”, Karnani said.

Knorr has my 100% support in championing #LutongNanay to bring the family closer. Time is not an excuse because there are a lot of simple, smart and great tasting dishes that everyone can enjoy.
