Instant Pot Filipino (Ilonggo) Pork Spare Ribs Adobo with annatto/achiote
 As an Ilonggo, Chicken and pork adobo with annatto/achiote is a common dish in Iloilo. There are different variations of adobo based on Region and Province. The main ingredients of adobo are soy sauce and vinegar. For vinegar, we always use freshly made coconut sap vinegar or tuba. My mom always keeps the vinegar in a big container. The vinegar taste better if you store it for several months.
