Kilawin na Tanigue
The best kilawin I have tested is "Tanigue" or King Fish.
(I don't know actually the English name of this fish. But my understanding calls for King Fish)
First, you have to buy really fresh from the market.
To check, see the meat it must be tight and no bad smell you can smell it.
Not fishy smell "malansa". cut into 12mm x 12mm cubes. clean and set aside. Meanwhile, prepare 1/2 cup of vinegar "datu puti" if available. 2 medium lemon, ginger about 5 thumb size, crushed and fine chopped, 1/2 tspoon black pepper powder, 2 medium red onions cut into fine cubes.  Press by hands the fish cubes till 70 percent of water drained, marinade into vinegar for about 30 to 1 hr. mins. drain 80 percent of vinegar, then add lemon juice,add black pepper add ginger salt to taste, add small red chilies.  Put vetsin if you prefer, keep refrigerated for about 2 hours.
Then take you Brand, (For me Cognac).
Wheeew,... Oh Boy .. Oh Boy. Tell me the taste.
