This authentic Filipino spiced vinegar, often known as pinakurat, is a quintessential condiment in Southeast Asian cuisine. A punchy, dairy-free infusion of sharp sugarcane vinegar, pungent garlic, and fiery bird’s-eye chillies, it offers a sophisticated balance of heat and acidity. The addition of ginger and a hint of dried fruit provides a subtle sweetness that rounds out the savoury depth of the fish sauce, creating a versatile sauce that cuts beautifully through rich or fried foods.
Ideal as a dipping sauce for grilled meats, crispy spring rolls, or seafood, this homemade staple is an effortless way to elevate a simple meal. Because the flavours continue to develop and intensify the longer they sit, a jar kept in the fridge becomes a reliable pantry hero for adding an instant hit of umami to your favourite savoury dishes.

Ingredients for Filipino-Style Spiced Vinegar
10 garlic cloves, peeled and sliced
40g (35 g) dried fruit, such as raisins, cherries, or mangos (optional)
5 whole bird’s-eye chillies
1 (3-inch/7.5 cm) knob fresh ginger, scrubbed and minced
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
725 to 950ml (720 ml to 1 L) white sugarcane vinegar
60ml (60 ml) fish sauce
How to make Filipino-Style Spiced Vinegar
Put the garlic, dried fruit, chillies, ginger, and peppercorns in a clean glass jar or bottle and cover with the vinegar and fish sauce. Loosely cover or cap the jar and let sit at room temperature in a dark place for 48 hours.
Transfer the jar to the refrigerator. The pinakurat will keep indefinitely, and the flavours will continue to develop over time.
