Production process
01
Uniform size
It is the key to ensure the meat is crispy but not rotten
Each piece of meat should be neatly cut and reshaped into a 3.5cm size.
02
Pour water into the pot and blanch the pancetta.
When blanching, skim off the floating ends, fish out the meat after the water boils, and rinse it several times with water.
Tips.
▶ The blood foam and stains that stick to the meat need to be washed off several times.
03
The secret of fatty but not greasy meat
The meat should be stir-fried thoroughly
Add 2 tablespoons (30ml) of oil, ginger and green onion to the pan and stir-fry the pork to remove the fat.
Add 0.4 bowl (100ml) of cooking wine and continue to stir-fry until the pancetta is golden brown on the surface.
No fried sugar color
Old soy sauce + sugar can be as red and shiny
Then add 1 tablespoon (15ml) of soy sauce and 0.2 bowl (50g) of sugar to taste.
Tips.
▶ You can use icing sugar instead of white sugar at home, which makes the roast pork more shiny.
Add water that is not over the ingredients and cover with a lid. Boil on high heat to medium heat and simmer for 40 minutes.
Tips.
▶ Add enough water at once and do not rehydrate at a later stage, otherwise it will dilute the original flavor of the meat.
Then turn down the heat and let it slowly reduce the juice so it will produce a natural gravy.
Finally, until the sides of the pan are sandy, you can remove the pan.
