Pork chop pieces 400 gr (2 pieces) Minced shallots 2 bulbs Honey 1 tablespoon Caramel sauce 1 tablespoon Cooking oil 100 ml Common spices a little (salt/sugar/seasoning/ground pepper)
How to Choose Fresh and Delicious Pork Chops
- Choose fresh pork chops that are light pink in color, with a firm texture when pressed, not overly dark or bluish-green, and without foul odor.
- You should select those with thick meat, small bones, and a bit of fat, as this will make the meat softer and tastier when cooked. However, avoid chops with very small bones since they come from younger pigs, which may not be tasty and may indicate that the pig is not healthy.
- If you buy chops at the market, it’s best to go early to easily select good pieces, as the temperature and storage conditions at markets can lead to spoilage.
- It is advisable to buy from reputable stores, supermarkets, or food shops,… this product is also available on the TasteVN website.
How to prepare Honey Fried Pork Ribs
-
Prepare the ribs
To ensure the ribs are clean and effectively eliminate odors, soak the ribs in diluted salt water for about 5 – 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water several times.
To help the meat become tender and absorb the seasoning evenly, use a meat mallet or the back of a knife to gently pound the meat.
Tips for cleaning ribs, odor-free:
- The ribs should be cooked immediately after purchase for the best taste.
- You can rub salt all over the ribs, massaging it well, and then rinse with water several times.
- Use white wine to rub over the meat multiple times to reduce any unpleasant odor and make the meat more tender.
- Before cooking, blanch the pork in boiling water for about 3 minutes, then rinse it with cold water before proceeding to cook; this will eliminate any odors and make the food tastier.
