Most versions also add safflower (kasubha) which turns the dish characteristically yellow. Arroz caldo is also known as pospas in Visayan regions, though pospas has slightly different ingredients. Arroz caldo is a type of lugaw, a Philippine rice porridge dish. It is regarded as a comfort food in Philippine culture and is a popular breakfast meal.
