bagoong
Noun
Meaning
bagoong (uncountable)
A Philippine condiment made from fermented fish or shrimps.
Examples
The shrimp sounds a little like bagoong, a salty type of shrimp paste, and can also be used as an acompaniment to stew and curries, much like how chutneys are used.
The other dishes that I would highly recommend is Pinakbet, which is a vegetable stew with bagoong (shrimp paste), and Palabok, which is a unique noodle dish.
