    Dan, always handsome as usual, thank you for doing pork belly. I always wondered, “What’s the big deal, and why would anyone want to eat pork belly?” You, my friend, have answered all those questions. Man did that look good. I can hardly wait to try it. I hope mine looks as good as yours. I think I’ll be o’ding on pork belly.

    That pork belly recipe seems so much simpler than the Asian style ones out there that require some to boil or blanching, and even marinating overnight before roasting and even better not having to deep fry. Thanks!

    • @kingoffongpei
      @kingoffongpei 4 года назад +2

      Asian recipes often call for boiling or blanching because their pork has a much stronger "pork smell" that the boiling/blanching helps to remove. Pork in the US doesn't have nearly as strong of a smell. Not necessarily the reason why it might be in the recipes you've read, but it's a common reason.

      There's a version that I learned when studying abroad in China. It was the first one I had ever seen. It's called braised pork belly, or hongshao zhu rou. I'm sure a search on youtube will bring it up so you can check it out. That one is really good too ^~^ It's easy to find strips of pork belly in an asian grocery store too, in case you can't find it in a normal supermarket.

    I love Becky. Seriously impressive professional chef and a very natural presenter. Just says what she knows but makes it friendly and accessible... she knows the other two are the main ‘presenter’ chefs/cooks, and doesn’t try to make herself into a “personality” or something she’s not. But her training and attention to detail shines through and she banters with Bridget & Julia on camera in a way that makes us non-chef viewers feel like pros. She’s as terrific and as valuable as Lisa. The four of them make such a great team.

      Nat Lite in France we never cure it with sugar, just salt and smoke. Generally when cooking pork we don’t add sugar, it comes from what we cook it with, apples are a must, slow cooked onions as well. You put both when you cook it with red cabbage, yummy. 😋

    • @ellengregory8002
      @ellengregory8002 4 года назад +4

      Non-enhanced meat contains no added salt, solutions or flavorings. You should not see the phrase, “Contains up to X% of a solution to enhance tenderness and juiciness” on the label. If you see this, it's been enhanced.

    • @ThePointblank
      @ThePointblank 4 года назад +1

      If you got a butcher, ask them directly, but if you don't, enhanced meat usually has a fairly lengthy ingredients list beyond just the meat, such as water, sodium phosphates, salt, sodium lactate, potassium lactate, sodium diacetate and varying flavoring agents.
