Cured Pork Belly Recipe (Cantonese Lap Yok)

[@SoupedUpRecipes]

The most simple way to enjoy Lap Yok is to steam it then slice it into thin slices. Serve as a side dish. You can use Lap Yok to make a lot of traditional Chinese recipes, such as Clay Pot Rice - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIDMf5-kmJt2sJI Taro Root Cake - kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5mUppuolpetnMU Cantonese Turnip Cake - kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5OUhH6BbNSZrbc XO Sauce - kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3TTl2eghNaehKs Cantonese Fried Rice - kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoSyhnStfsapfpI

You should add instructions on how to hold Chop Sticks. Keep up the great work Mandy, Peace

🔎 In my experience, people who reject alcohol for religious reasons, generally reject pork for the same reasons. 😉✌

[@daamsy]

Thank you..can you show us how to make the Chinese sausage??

[@MaZEEZaM]

Really great video and recipe as always but especially for these cured products that we can't easily or cheaply access in Australia. Your chopsticks look really nice too, given ceramic is generally very smooth and slippery, are yours textured at the picking up end to help grip the food? For those of us who find chopsticks difficult at the best of times, textured chopsticks would really help.

[@MaZEEZaM]

@@BigMamaDaveX There are many Christian people who don't use alcohol for religious reasons but love pork though many are also vegetarian.

I used your recipe made lap yok with 10 lbs no skin pork belly. They turned out amazing tasty! My hubby said better than store bought. Thank you very much for your sharing and I will definitely try out more of your delicious menu!,😋😋😋👍👍👍

Thank you Mandy for your Lap yok recipe! 🥰I made that today and It was very tasty! Hubby and I both enjoyed it much. Thanks for your sharing!

Now that we have lap yok, you could do an update for clay pot rice!

[@dougchinn2820]

Fantastic recipe. Since it's winter and raining here, I'm going to wait till warmer weather to try the "hanging" method to dry the meat. My mom used to do this with Lop Oop, or preserve duck. You're right, the taste is amazing. Thank you for sharing your recipe.

[@composthis]

I was just wondering about doing this with duck, since I raise my own birds. Any tips? Would you use duck breast with the skin on?

[@dougchinn2820]

Haven't tried it yet, but it should work. Google "Cantonese cured duck", to see a similar recipe for duck. Ingredients very similar, but the prep may differ a little. Be sure to cover the duck with a mesh screen to keep flies and other insects out while curing. Good eating.

You can even get lap chong from the Asian section of Woolies or Coles these days, but it's quite expensive by weight and I don't know how good the quality is. Keen to try Mandy's recipe for that too! (and *of course* his name is Randy... these people are like caricatures of themselves at this point 😆)

[@davidosborne3187]

Hi Andy, I have been one of your subscribers for almost a year and love what you do. I also appreciate your hard work in preparing your episodes. Just watched the one that showed five different fillings for Chinese dumplings, what dedication you have!! Regarding this episode it would be great to see a follow up episode where you mention all kinds of recipes where this cured bacon could be used. I am sure you have featured many recipes in the past where this is used so in the follow up episode you could get your subscribers to revisit your previous recipes featuring your cured bacon. Anyway keep up the great work!!!! David🇨🇦

Sorry ‘MANDY’ David 🇨🇦

[@mixtape4041]

My goodness, the time and effort you put into your videos is astonishing! Thank you!

[@jafo3814]

I made a batch of lap yuk about 6 weeks ago with pork butt. After 10 days of fermentation, I took a piece of lap and cooked it for consumption because I couldn't wait any longer. The lap yuk was good but it lack a "certain" something. To make a long story short, let your lap yuk go through the fermentation of at least 4 weeks as Mandy had prescribed, I have notice that the texture , the color as well as the fragrance when cooked is much more superior than the 10 day lap yuk I had cooked previously. Mandy, thanks for your recipe. The lap yuk was most delicious, and I planned to make a big batch for gifts over the holiday!!!

[@iamafractal]

It makes a great deal of sense to use a curing chamber, where temperature and humidity can be controlled accurately. Luckily I have curing chambers so I’ll give this one a try! I do think I’ll add garlic and ginger though. I hope that’s traditional.

[@sheilaforde836]

Thank you. This is wonderful. I’m going to try it.

[@thecookingshorts]

Lap Yok is the best ! love it

[@semco72057]

That sounds like a great recipe and the meat will be ready for the different dishes which calls for cured pork bacon. I have a package of bacon and could try making some of that and use it in a dish and see how it turns out. Thanks for sharing this recipe with us all and God Bless and Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@jonathanbrooks2120]

The recipe sounds delicious - and super easy as well! I wonder if adding a bit of liquid smoke would give it that "hung in the rafters over a wood stove" flavor.

[@SoupedUpRecipes]

yes, liquid smoke will definite work.

[@frydik4610]

halo, saya sangat suka dengan video anda mengenai resep ini, ada beberapa pertanyaan yang mungkin jika berkenan bisa anda bantu untuk jelaskan. 1. setelah di dehidrasi bisakah kita hanya menggantungnya begitu saja untuk tetap menjaga agar tetap awet jika tidak ada ruangan pengasapan? atau cara terbaik di lapisi kertas lalu simpan di freezer untuk tahan tahunan? 2. saya pernah buat dengan metode jemur dan hasilnya sudah kering terdehidrasi, tapi bagian kulitnya jadi kering dan keras serta alot sehingga sulit dimakan, apakah daging harus di rebus lama agar tekstur kembali kenyal dan lembut sebelum diolah? terima kasih :) 2.

This sounds really interesting. I think my first step will be go to the ethnic market down the street to see if I can buy some to try it.

[@rafaelsmith5411]

Super amazing 🤩🤩

[@doggedout]

I have cured and smoked many pork bellies on my smoker (after curing in my fridge_. It is far superior to any bacon you can buy.) Unfortunately, the pork industry had figured that out and it is almost impossible to buy pork belly where I live. Also, not using pink salt makes it much better. Let it cure in the fridge for a week. Turning it every two days before smoking. I use a large rectangular backing pyrex covered. Best bacon ever.

[@angiemaatje582]

I've been watching this video and your sausage video for 100th time orso and i am planning to start some curing my self next week. I have a bottle orange liquer with 40% alcohol content i think i will use sinds the small dutch country Village i live in does not have a asian store i think it will make for a good substetute. Love your video's by the way

[@MrJasonwoodrow]

If you want to avoid using higher heat, it sounds like the meat could be hung indoors (maybe garage) with a fan blowing on it for 4 weeks. Maybe inside some screen material to keep out bugs. I've seen other channels do this for biltong, a South African dried beef.

[@SoupedUpRecipes]

yes, you can do that LOL! That is the dehydrating method.

[@fretless05]

Baijiu has a fairly distinct flavor, but there's a lot of other strong flavors in your mix, like the dark soy. Does it change the flavor of the finished product, or does the vodka version taste the same?

[@jchang28]

Hi there, what if instead of using the oven to dry them up I hang the strips at sunlight? The same way I make Lap Cheong. I live in a tropical country and we always have sunlight mostly all year long.

[@rsmb99]

A dehydrator is the best for this as it has both heating and ventilation available. Smoking may give the meat a nice smokey flavor but smoke is harmful (carcinogenic). Nitrates and nitrites are also well known to cause cancer. Not adding nitrites (only salt) and using a dehydrator (instead of smoking) makes it completely safe.

[@xiao..2191]

I don't know why but I still remember when I'm still a child I've seen seen something like that hanging in our stove where my grandfather and grandmother lives but they only used salted meat and pierced it with a stick then hanged it.. moreover we aren't chinese either we are from philipines and we called the dried meat etag.
