Pork chop 500 gr Minced shallots 1 tablespoon Minced garlic 1 teaspoon Satay 1/2 teaspoon Honey 1 teaspoon Fish sauce 2 tablespoons Soy sauce 1 teaspoon Chili sauce 1 teaspoon Pepper/salt A little
How to Choose Good Honey
- You should choose pure honey, which is yellow or bright orange in color.
- Do not buy honey that has turned black, has bubbles on the surface, has a strong spicy smell, and tastes sour and bitter, as this honey has fermented and is no longer good for health.
- You can test the quality of honey by dropping a few drops into a glass of water; if the honey sinks to the bottom of the glass, it is quality honey.
- You can also check using another method by inserting green onions into the honey; if the onion leaves gradually become soft and wilted, it is real honey, and you should buy it.
- Alternatively, drop honey on oil-absorbing paper; if the honey dissolves slowly and absorbs little oil, it is pure honey.
Where to Buy Satay
You can buy satay at markets, supermarkets, Bách Hoá XANH stores nationwide, or online at the e-commerce site bachhoaxanh.com. Additionally, you can make satay at home using the recipe below.
