is it even worth trying to make charsiew pork at home, or should i just resign myself to the chinese restaurant? buganons please drop time-tested recipes.

It's super easy to make, it's just a bit time consuming to put together the marinade for it but then it only takes a little over an hour to cook.

Pingpong the tinwong. Then changbang the longdong. Perfect char siu every time

loin for you or something fattier?

Here's my recipe, just like mama used to make

>loin for you or something fattier?

Yeah, I use pork shoulder.

is it actually good?

thank you so much this fix my probrem

I've used it a couple of times and it's great.

From what I remember it's inexpensive and should be in any Asian grocery store, you can get char sui marinade in jars as well if that's your thing. 



Or try your own marinade it's a few simple ingredients garlic, salt, hoisin, honey or sugar, soy sauce, sherry or Chinese cooking wine, Chinese five spice powder and apparently the secret to making it red is beetroot powder.

Got any recipe for cantonese roast duck? I've tried using five spice + maltose on duck breast which is OK but I want to try a whole duck since I love the drippings they give me when I buy it at a BBQ place, there's nothing better to put on rice.

Ye after I made mine the chinese restaurant version has never not disappointed me.

First of all, you will need a Harrison Davis and a Warwick Davis in your basement.

It's just roast pork belly in a (very) sweet barbecue sauce, personally I think gweilo barbecue has a better balance of flavour. I only eat charsiew now for nostalgia value.

i usually use this recipe https://rasamalaysia.com/char-siu/ but i prefer to use a boston butt rather than pork belly

lol u said butt

You can also use red rice wine, which is glutinous rice wine made with red yeast

Chinese doesn’t even have the ‘ng’ sound.

Go for this Thai stuff, it's better than the Chink stuff. Avoid the insects and go for the sauce.

If you stick to the plot then you wont get lost.

The last name of a guy I went to highschool with was "ng" it just sound's like it's spelling, kind of like "ing" but without the i so just "ng." It makes more sense if you hear it in person.

>hongkong, chinghai, shanghai, beijing and chongching are unpronounceable to their residents

Wong

Yes, pronounced like "erng" but with the "er" chopped extremely short

It is a variant of Wong, and so one of the most common chinese names

Yes it's worth ir.



Although, I find Chairman Mao's pork is easier to make at home than char siu.



So if you also like that, try that instead.

Fuck off Warwick poster. You disgust me - if I ever find you I’ll give you a piece of my mind.

Bug here. Just buy it, it's not easy to make at home
