Traditional braised pork

Traditional braised pork

Introduction:

"I often see on the Internet that the most common dish" braised pork "has different production processes, which can be said to be multifarious. When making it, you can put everything in it. But recently, a netizen asked me, "how to make the most authentic braised pork, can you recommend one?" In fact, I don't know who's authentic and who's not! After thinking about it for a long time, it's hard for me to answer his question. Simply, I'd like to introduce a braised meat made by Fu, a teacher who has been engaged in cooking for many years, to this friend a few years ago. According to Fu, the teacher at that time, it was the authentic northern braised meat, and I always made it in this way. Just now I'm greedy too, so I'll solve it! Because it's a more traditional method, I also learned it secretly at that time. It's not necessarily good. I call it "traditional braised pork."

Production steps:

Step 1: 800 grams of streaky pork, 15 grams of star anise, 1 piece of fragrant leaf, 50 grams of scallion, 30 grams of ginger, 20 grams of sugar, 25 grams of salt, 25 grams of soy sauce, 30 grams of rice wine, 25 grams of rock sugar, 15 grams of peanut oil.

Note: characteristics of braised pork: bright red color, fragrant taste, soft rotten and smooth, fat but not greasy. Warm tips: 1. When making braised meat, it should not be too small, because after the finished product, the meat will shrink nearly twice, so we should master the size of the meat. 2. Water tight meat to smell, to cool the underwater pot, stew when using boiling water, master this key point, the meat will be very fragrant, otherwise, the taste and taste are not good. 3. Salt can be put or not. Salt is used to find taste. If it feels too sweet, you can put less salt appropriately. Some soy sauce is very salty, so you don't need to put any more salt. When the finished product is tasted, it is appropriate to bring a little sweet in the salty. It is not good if it is too sweet or too salty.
