    What happened to the onions you boiled the pork belly with, do you use them or throw them out?

  • @nelsona9381
    @nelsona9381 Před 6 lety

    it's like an Japanese version of adobo from the Philippines the only difference is they used vinegar instead of sake.

    Thank you for this recipe. I ordered some pork belly 3 days ago and picked it up yesterday. But the dumbfs forgot to thaw it so they can slice it thin like bacon. So they sliced it into thick long pieces instead so I can't use it for my original recipe. I can't rely anyone around here anymore. So I will be able to use this pork belly because of your very delicious recipe.

    • @annainspain5176
      @annainspain5176 Před 6 lety +1

      Flavour, just like cooking the pork with white onion. They flavour the oil. You can also save one and chop the green part for a garnish.

    Is there much difference between making Kakuni and Chashu チャーシュー/Nibuta (煮豚) ?
    Aside from the pork belly is rolled and tied with string. Other than that, they seem really similar.

      elenaki zou then just cook it for 3 hours instead - depending on the meat 2-2.5 might be enough already. It's really worth the time

      @mistershoujo1235 Před 6 lety +2

      Don't be! It's kind of difficult to screw up with a pressure cooker; if there's too much pressure, most of the ones these days have a fail-safe valve that automatically ejects steam to keep the pressure under a safe limit. When opening it, you can use the steam release valve, or do what I do - put it in a sink with ice cubes and water, while running it under cold water, wait until all the ice cubes melt, THEN release the steam (there won't be any), because this way, the fumes are not allowed to escape and this keeps the flavor in
      Or you could get an electric one

    • @lorgarspersonalchair
      @lorgarspersonalchair Před 4 lety +3

      I recommend using something like a brisket. You generally want a fatty meat that is great for slow cooking when braising.

      Rice vinegar is too sour, sake is not sour. If you can drink alcohol use vodka, if you can't drink alcohol, use water.

      @@brandon3872 Can you explain the use of sake in japanese recipe pls? I've never had real sake when I tried Japanese recipes. I wonder if it is for the flavor or for the meat to be softened? If it's used for a special the flavor, I'm wondering if substituting with any white alcohol can actually be ok. If It only for softening the meat, luckily I have one bottle white alcohol in my kitchen, which we often use to clean the meat's aroma 😄

    • @brandon3872
      @brandon3872 Před rokem

      @@linhvu6536 Hello, sake is used for 3 purposes in Japanese cooking.
      1: It removes the strong gamey aroma from meats and fish.
      2: It tenderises meat, making it softer.
      3: It has a subtle taste which is hard to describe. You wouldn't necessarily notice the taste of sake in something, but somehow Japanese food tastes better when it is used. You can use any mild tasting white alcohol, but nothing strongly flavoured like gin or white rum. Good luck with your cooking! :)
