It's really a magical place for meat lovers. You have roast pork, roast duck, roast chicken, BBQ pork, BBQ duck, BBQ chicken and sometimes even entrails, all covered with a soft, sticky glaze. The most enticing is roasted pork belly, also known as Thit Heo Quay in Vietnamese or Siu Yuk in Cantonese.
What makes pork roast so tempting? It's all about textures. You get the first layer of crispy skin, then the second layer of juicy fat and finally the layer of tender meat. Every bite is best restaurant in hanoi literally an explosion of textures.
Because ordering in Chinese barbecue shops has proven to be very difficult for me (older Chinese women are a force to be reckoned with when queuing), I managed to make those delights of pork at home ... of course, after many, many unsuccessful attempts. Below are some tips for getting a perfectly crisp and delicious roast pork belly.
TIPS NOT TO FAIL
Get a slab of pork belly that is even high all around.
An uneven slab does not cook evenly, but most importantly, it is very difficult to make the skin crispy. If you get an uneven slice of pork belly, where one side is thicker than the other, simply cut the pork belly into pieces of equal height and cook separately in best restaurant in hanoi.
IF YOU KNOW HOW TO MAKE DRY MEAT, GET PORK BONE WITH BONE.
The pork belly with bone makes the meat tastier and more mellow. The only drawback is that you can not easily cut the roast into bite-sized pieces.
If all else fails, go to Oakland or San Francisco to Chinatown and save yourself the problem. THEY DO NOT COST CHEAP.
