Pancit. First time making pancit and this was easy! The noodles soften in warm water while I chopped the onions and garlic. Pancit bihon guisado - or simply pancit bihon (traditionally and historically also spelled as Spanish: bijon) is the type usually associated with the word "pancit", very thin rice noodles fried with soy sauce some citrus, possibly with patis, and some variation of sliced meat and chopped vegetables.
Filipino pancit as a recipe is a little confusing, as it is the name of the dish and also one of the ingredients.
Pancit is the word for noodles and to add to the confusion there are different types of pancit, with pancit Canton—egg noodles, pancit Bihon—rice noodles and pancit Miki—thick egg noodles.
Filipino Pancit is a popular dish that is typically has a protein (chicken and/or pork), carrot, cabbage, spices and such and tossed thin rice noodles.

I like to broaden my family's ethnic cuisine horizon from time to time. Pancit bihon and pancit canton are two of the most popular versions of pancit. While many variations exist even within these two types of pancit, the main difference between the two is the type of noodles used. Pancit bihon calls for bihon noodles (thin rice vermicelli, sometimes called rice stick noodles).

Salamat kaayo, many thanks, to sweet Auntie Febe (pictured below) for teaching me how to make this. Place the rice noodles in a large bowl, and cover with warm water. In a frying pan over medium heat, brown the chicken and pork until no pink shows.
