HITO refers to catfish, a freshwater fish known for its slippery, scaleless body and distinctive whisker-like barbels. It thrives in rivers, lakes, and ponds and is a popular ingredient in Filipino cuisine.
Hito is often prepared in various ways, including:
Adobong Hito – A savory dish where catfish is simmered in vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, and spices for a rich, tangy flavor
Sinugbang Hito – Grilled catfish, typically marinated and cooked over charcoal for a smoky taste
Crispy Fried Hito – Deep-fried catfish served with a dipping sauce, often paired with vegetables or rice.
Eating hito provides a great source of lean protein while keeping calorie and fat intake in check. Its omega-3 content also makes it a heart-friendly food.
