Discover 3 science-based cooking techniques to make pork more delicious
If you want to make a tender and tasty pork dish bursting with flavor, in addition to using Hong Kong Heritage Pork Tai Chi Pork (John Lau Hon pencil case), Taiwanese food scientist Gary cheung has 3 tips you should know:
Tip 1: tenderize the pork
To improve the taste of pork, the first step is to tenderize the pork. Pork tenderization is divided into different ways: physical (pork tissue is broken up by vigorous threshing) and chemical (using rice wine or aged vinegar to denature the amino acids in the meat).
Tip 2: Brown the meat before simmering it
To make your pork more flavorful, it is necessary to fry the pork before simmering it. This is because when you fry meat at high temperature, it undergoes a “Maillard reaction”, which gives off a stronger fragrant aroma.
Tip 3: Simmer for at least an hour over medium to low heat
The high quality Tai Chi pigs raised by John Lau Hon Kit are rich in collagen, but the collagen must reach 80 degrees to be hydrolyzed and tender. Simmering the Tai Chi pork with the accompanying ingredients for an hour or more over medium-low heat will make the pork even more tender.
