Braised pork (extremely sweet, soft and delicious - my favorite)
Overview
Speaking of braised pork, there are several versions in the vast land of China. The more famous schools of braised pork include Su-style braised pork and Mao-style braised pork. In addition, there are local braised pork, northern braised pork, Fujian-style braised pork, Lu-style braised pork, etc. Su-style braised pork is sweet, soft and glutinous and melts in your mouth, while Mao-style braised pork is bright red, slightly spicy and rich in flavor. In fact, Mao-style braised pork is the top dish in Hunan restaurants because of the great man's personal taste. In fact, I have my own answer as to what kind of braised pork is the most delicious. What I love the most is the braised pork that I make myself. It’s not because of how good my craftsmanship is, but because I know what flavor and texture I like best, so when I make it, I love to eat it. The preparation of braised pork is relatively simple, the key is to master the heat and time.
