The characteristics of this braised pork: beautiful three-dimensional shape, oily color and fragrant taste, soft, glutinous and crispy meat, fragrant and delicious snow cabbage. Coupled with lotus leaf cake, it can be regarded as a top grade for family banquets, and can be enjoyed for large banquets and small drinks. Warm tips: 1. Soak and rinse the snow vegetables before processing. When frying, be sure to stir-fry the taste of the snow vegetables to a strong and fragrant flavor. Mix the oil of frying star anise and onion oil to get the best taste. After frying, pick up the star anise and don't want it. 2. Don't boil the meat until it is processed, to check that there is no blood inside it has just been broken, and then refrigerate it for several hours. This will make it easier to cut and not easy to break when sliced. 3. The knife must be sharp when slicing meat. It is best to use a thin knife. I use a toothless bread knife, which is thin and fast and very easy to use. It can also be used with an ordinary kitchen knife, but it must be sharp and the knife must be evenly cut. 4. The meat slices should not be too thin, leaving room for oil removal and retraction during steaming. The thickness of the slices should be 2 mm. Steam the meat until soft and rotten, and it is best to cut it off with a gentle pinch with chopsticks.
