Secrets to Perfect Roast Pork and Pig's Belly

Cooking Braised Pork Belly, the pork should be boiled until tender before immediately coating it with a layer of soy sauce(it won't color if applied when cooled), then prick the skin, and finally deep-fry it in oil heated to eight-tenths hot."Needling" requires pricking densely and evenly to facilitate the release of gelatin from within the skin. When fried, more of this gelatin will continue to ooze out. This creates many small honeycomb-like pores inside the skin; after cooking, the pork belly's exterior will become crisp yet tender and flavorful.
