    If you don't have the budget to buy free rage organic pork which cold cost more than $10 per KG than pork from the supermarket, buy the normal stuff from the super market that is in the pre packaged vac packs and take it out the vac pack the night before and put it in the fridge uncovered over night. The fridge drys the skin out over night and the crackle works out perfectly.

      That "dry it uncovered in the fridge overnight" trick also works well when preparing a duck for roasting.

    Dear Gill,
    Thanks a lot for sharing your tips&Tricks on pork crackling. I have tried your way on last Tuesday, welcoming 10 guests inclusive Canton natives, all of our guests were very happy. All the credit is to you and to the butcher house "ferme du bouret" as the only thing I did was salt&pepper + setting oven temperature right. It was simply delicious.
    In this way, anyone can cook (Remy's way).
    Thanks a lot

    I'm going to try this... it's backwards from the Danish way, where we put it under high heat at the end rather than the beginning. I'm curious to see how it works. Will let you know in a few hours how it goes. Our "flæskesteg" classic pork roast to Christmas dinner is usually without bone... but is basically the same as yours, but it comes already scored, we merely have to be sure the scores are correct, and cut all the way through... without cutting the meat as you say. You don't have the pork on a rack, which intrigues me also. Thanks for the tip.

    If you don't have a fan oven, my tip is to get the skin as parallel to the oven element as possible. Otherwise, I find the higher portion crackles, whereas the lower does not so much.

    Well, I did this and I am a kitchen rank amateur. Easy to understand, nice and short, and the product of my labour was equally phenomenal and delicious. I have to admit though, to get the crispiness scale up, I had to go 500degF (Broil) for about 5minutes). Otherwise, cooked to perfection, tender, juicy and perfect colouring. I am quite amazed.

All you have to do is figure out the cause and have another crack at it. Patience, persistence and perseverance and you can do it! Good luck.

  • @kirkness5335
    @kirkness5335 6 лет назад

    I swear by placing the shoulder on to a bed of salt in the fridge overnight (so the skin is touching the bed of salt) & cover the flesh with cling wrap. This draws all the moisture out of the skin for that really dry skin, then when preparing brush off excess salt, and pour a cup or two of boiling water over your scored skin (over an oven tray over the sink)..watch it open up a little. Pat dry completely so no moisture and drizzle with olive oil and a pinch of salt.. 30 minutes in 250C oven for the perfect crackle. Works perfectly every time.

    This is all well and good for fatty cuts like shoulder or belly but if you are doing a leaner cut of pork loin I'd say you need to be a little more careful with that initial heat blast and the subsequent cooking times, or you'll have crisp crackling on a dry roast ...

  • @MrChrissy1r
    @MrChrissy1r 2 года назад

    This is exactly how I do roast pork, an old, tried and trusted method. I learned from Anthony Worrall Thompson and it neve fails. I have always cooked on gas, but have just moved into a new bungalow, where the hob and oven are all electric, the oven works well, but, but, but being fan assisted the pork spits a lot, as the heat is so dry, and coats the inside of the oven terribly, and takes hours of elbow grease to get clean! What I want to know, and I will try this, as I know it works in a gas oven, is to cook the joint covered with foil, and for the last 40 or so minutes open the foil , and return the joint to oven on its highest heat.

    it's a preference thing, but you can put it in a cold oven and then amp the temperature 5min before taking it out. This creates a more juicy meat with more of the white fat stil remaining. the way he did it is delisious as well though, and probrably better for making sandwiches the next day.
