Today, let's go into the kitchen together, explore the production method of home-cooked Dongpo meat, and taste the delicious taste derived from the classics.
The deliciousness of Dongpo meat first comes from its unique cooking process. Choose fat and lean pork, after a long time of slow stewing, so that the meat is crispy and flavorful, fat but not greasy. During the cooking process, soy sauce, sugar, cooking wine and other seasonings are also added to make the Dongpo meat present an attractive reddish-brown color and exude a rich aroma. With every bite, you can feel the deliciousness of the meat and the mellow aroma of the seasoning, which makes you intoxicated.
The process of making homemade Dongpo meat is tedious, but it's a lot of fun. First, we need to cut the pork into cubes and tie it tightly with cotton thread so that it retains its shape when stewed. Then, heat the pot, add an appropriate amount of oil, add rock sugar and stir-fry until melted, stir-frying the sugar color. Then, place the pork pieces in the pan and fry until golden brown on both sides. At this time, pour in cooking wine, soy sauce, ginger and other seasonings, add enough water, bring to a boil over high heat, turn to low heat and simmer.
During the simmering process, we should always pay attention to the situation in the pot to ensure that the meat is crispy and the soup is rich. As time goes on, the kitchen fills the kitchen with an ever-stronger aroma that makes people salivate. When the soup is thickened, sprinkle with some chopped green onions and serve.
