1 | pcs | Pork Belly |
49.61 | g | Five Spice Powder |
300 | g | Salt |
Ingredients |
First, wash the pork belly in water, pat dry and place on a 1/1GN rack and steam at 100°c for 10 mins. After steaming the belly, remove from the oven and evenly spike the skin of the pork belly. Take care to not poke through the meat. Use a kitchen towel to wipe the excess water from the skin. Flip the meat upright, prepare the five spice powder mix with 100g salt and rub on the meat part. Cover the meat with aluminium foil. Flip the skin facing upward and rub salt evenly throughout the skin. Place the slab of marinated pork belly onto the rack, preset and preheat Convotherm oven with stage 1-4. Once preheated, use the Core temperature probe to poke into the belly meat part, (do not poke into the skin). Let the belly cook till completed stage. After the belly has completed the stage, remove it from the oven. You can choose either to blast chill, portionise and vaccum pack or you can fully crisp up the skin for serving. To crisp up the skin, preset and preheat the oven with stage 5. Once the oven is preheated, place the pork belly (with meat part covered with aluminium foil) resting on the rack with skin facing upward into the oven. Complete 18 mins blasting, remove from the oven and use a saw paring knife to scrape the surface of the blasted skin evenly. After scraping, repeat stage 5 for another 2 cycles plus scraping the skin. When you reach the third cycle; your pork belly will be ready. |
