@thetastebud: This beef stew or “red sauce” which I called it growing up, is a nostalgic twist on the classic Filipino beef kaldereta without the liver spread, but still rich, tomato-forward, and deeply comforting. Growing up, this dish was reserved for weekends, when my working mom finally had time to slow down and simmer something on the stove. The sauce is velvety and bold with layers of tomato paste, soy sauce, and a hint of fish sauce for umami. It’s a humble stew blending Filipino and American flavors for simplicity in one pot. Serve it over hot rice, and you’ve got more than a meal—you’ve got a memory. For the full recipe check out my website thetastebud.co #redsauce #filipino #filipinofood
