Ingredients

Bullet tuna (1 kg, cleaned and prepared)
Vinegar (1 cup)
Water (2 cups)
Garlic (6 cloves, minced)
Onion (1 medium, sliced)
Ginger (2 inches, sliced)
Salt (1 tablespoon, or to taste)
Bay leaves (3 leaves)
Black peppercorns (1 teaspoon)

Instructions

Begin by cleaning the bullet tuna: remove the scales and internal organs, then rinse under cold water and pat dry.
In a large pot, combine the vinegar, water, minced garlic, sliced onion, sliced ginger, black peppercorns, bay leaves, and salt. Stir well and bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
Once boiling, carefully add the cleaned bullet tuna to the pot. Reduce the heat to low, ensuring a gentle simmer.
Cover the pot and let the fish simmer for about 2 hours, or until the tuna is tender and the flavors are well infused. Check occasionally and add a bit more water if necessary to prevent drying out.
Once done, taste the broth and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve the Sinaing na Tulingan hot, ideally with a side of steamed rice to soak up the delicious broth.
