Tinolang Tahong

Tinolang Tahong is a mussel soup recipe with ginger and spinach. This recipe is inspired by a famous Filipino soup dish called tinolang manok or chicken tinola — which uses chicken, green papaya wedges, and chili pepper leaves. This mussel soup recipe is simple, budget-friendly, and delicious. This is also quick to prepare. It took me only 15 minutes to cook this dish.
I like to eat mussels because of its nice flavor. Aside from that, mussels are good for the health: they are excellent source of
Selenium, vitamin B12, zinc, and folate.
