[@SauceStache]

PS I HOPE you really like this one! I was so stoked after the taste test, because I can really see this changing the way I make a lot of fake meats!! MORE Like this coming soon!

[@valkyrie9918]

Yay! I'm looking forward to more!

[@ConstanzaRigazio]

🤤 looks delicious!

[@missinglink_eth]

@@SauceStache You said ALGO and I thought you were bribing me with cryptocurrency :)

[@lucaliaci8588]

awesome Mark!!! this is how I like it!! super creative and nice recipes!! also love the 2vidoes per week 😁😁😁

[@shubhirocksify]

I love how quickly you get into the video on this one, no need for long winded intros

[@emilschouhansen4298]

A bit too fast for my liking He could at least tell what he is making for a start..

[@SauceStache]

Thank you both for the feedback!!

[@nebraskacovington3615]

I appreciated that too sometimes Ill leave before we even get to the recipe honestly . My times limited unfortunately

[@ullinhope3866]

This video was great but please keep the detailed information. It's always interesting to hear. You could put links to different parts of the video for impatient people but then maybe they don't have time to click anyway.

[@beeozz]

You make people feel excited about food whether they are vegan or not with your great recipes 🌻 I hope to have time to try this ASAP looks great

[@SauceStache]

Thank you so much! That really means a LOT

[@obsidianfrost9514]

Not vegan myself but definitely can appreciate what he does. Very artistic with his he molds these items to resemble the original. Like that cake challenge but without the dread of wondering if you're surrounded by cake

[@patrickfromspace]

its so sad people dont see these videos, but i will never forget the inspiration you have given me.

[@SauceStache]

I appreciate this

[@patrickfromspace]

@@SauceStache I have faced a lot of persecution in TX for becoming vegan, even though I lost 240lbs. One day, this give me hope a vegan restaurant I open won't be... boring. Thanks again!

[@ushere5791]

i can't imagine making these complicated things just for myself, but i'd sure love to buy sauce stache products like your tofu belly at my local store. :)

[@jozsefjamesofficial]

Loved this one! Never really been a fan of pork, but this looks amazing. Mark......can you do a Thanksgiving Turkey-less special?

[@SauceStache]

Thank you!!! I should be making a "turkey"

[@ullinhope3866]

Great idea 💡

[@jozsefjamesofficial]

@@SauceStache awesome can't wait.....don't forget all the fixin's lol

[@andrewwashere82]

Yes please!! 🙏 plant based turkey be awesome!!

[@TheeBurgerDude]

Looks amazing as usual!!

[@emmasgoodies]

"Neapolitan ice cream" 🤣 This was awesome Mark!!🔥

[@SauceStache]

hahaha right... didnt it look like that?

[@InkCat44]

Clicked as soon as I saw the thumbnail and title ! I’ve never tried pork belly (and pigs were the first animal that I stopped eating while I was transitioning to veganism) but I can imagine the different textures involved from what I remember bacon being like. Needless to say I was VERY intrigued to see how you recreated it from tofu! So cool! Thank you again for another awesome video 🙏

[@peterbroberg3081]

This looks so good and like just the sort of thing that would be really fun to impress some company.

[@jenzsh6t]

Hi! First time commenter here! I'm loving your videos. I'm going to try the pork belly, but I didn't hear how long to steam the tofu. Thanks!

[@surajpoudel3215]

Sauce Stache is the real deal. Gordon Ramsey's got nothing on him.

[@yvesd5882]

This is unbelievably convincing! Would've loved to see a meat eater taste test and guess

[@SauceStache]

Thank you!!!! Hopefully soon I can start having more people over to taste test!

[@HomeOnTheRanges]

@@SauceStache that would be such a cool video series! Can sauce stache stump the guest!

[@Araielle]

I should comment more, but never know what to write. THANK YOU for this amazing recipe. I love yins and your energy!

[@fireteardrops]

I watched your other pork belly video just last night and I like this one a lot more. It seems more difficult to make but soooo good

[@Flippokid]

Freezing times are always dependent on how full it is, if you recently added other stuff that's still unfrozen, and position. If the result is so different from the expectation, these conditions might have something to do with it.

[@SauceStache]

Very true!!! I bet that was the culprit!

[@eviltango]

Really want to try this. It looks crumbly and not chewy though... Love this channel! I'm not vegan but I love these alternative ways of cooking and sourcing of ingredients (probably because I got a meat allergy from a tick bite).

[@pinkerton1650]

I’m not even vegan but I watch your videos every time you post. Love your channel !

[@stephanieh3776]

My jaw was on the floor at the result! These look amazing

[@axelgraham6928]

Yoooooo... I legit just made a vegan Hong Shao Ro with tofu as the pork belly like 2 days ago. We were blown away by how convincing it is. I reccomend everyone try the twice frozen tofu method rather than going through the hassle of blending it.

[@TuneintoLearning]

Thank you for the free recipes! I think it might be a decent idea, to have a series, making a variety of different deli meats, such as salami, turkey, ham, beef roast, Cajun chicken, etc. Using extra firm tofu, seitan, and other bean like foods as the foundation for each of them. I'm not experienced in the vegan deli meat department, and would think that would be a great addition to your channel, I would imagine, the shelf life would be great as well , properly frozen.

[@nastiacooksplants]

Love your format!! Thank you for sharing!🙏🏼

[@cacahuate01]

This came out much better than I expected

[@andremarcatti7600]

Looks so good! I tried the starch version and it was by far the best results I got from an online fake meat recipe. Any ideas on what to use if you can't find methylcellulose?

[@celeneb6309]

I sit & watch your videos like a tv show, you’re like a food scientist lol I love it

[@binkuspinkus8400]

very cool! i was interested in your wheat starch pork belly, but this one has a much better nutritional profile.

[@NoticeMeSenpaiii]

Ahhh I LOVE pork belly!!! It's the one meat I miss the most. Can't wait to use this as Korean BBQ style pork belly 😋

[@liltrench5862]

Sauce Stache, you did it agian! Amazing

[@nicolenew1708]

THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING

[@ethanogle698]

I'm not even vegan, i just love this content

[@SauceStache]

Thank you so much!!!

[@lukasvalenta]

This looks so good, i want to braise it 🤤 What would you recommend as an alternative to methylceluose? It's hard to get where i live

[@camerica7400]

I like how much she seemed to like it and she asked some great questions

[@sherryfatzinger3082]

I will definitely try this recipe 😋. Thank you 👍

[@joeb4142]

Hi Mark, I found this video really interesting and it awakened the vegan chef mad scientist in me. Excellent!

[@lisavento2526]

Put them in pinto beans! Making this today for my Pintos Locos for tomorrow lunch. So excited!! Thank you Mark.

[@Dreamysunshine23]

The crisp though🥰

[@SauceStache]

right?! thank you!

[@mxar2074]

That's so dope. I would totally order this at a restaurant if I could

[@beverleydavies3045]

That looks amazing. A lot of work, but perhaps worth it.

[@SauceStache]

It might feel like a lot of steps because of the video, but really its a lot of waiting time! ITs pretty easy!

[@fukaze2021]

I like how the uncooked version of it looks like neapolitan ice cream

[@SauceStache]

hahah It really does

[@valkyrie9918]

I love all your videos! This is just amazing!

[@ashleykhuu2889]

Love this over the seitan water pork belly!

[@jm5661]

You guys make an awesome couple! Great videos 👍👍

[@zw7719]

oh man, my Chinese mind is going crazy with all the dishes I can make using this!!

[@jd5787]

Definitely making this this week thanks! Is there a substitute for arrowroot starch and agave that would act in the same way? (generally speaking : having a table of possible substitutes would be a great addition!).

[@joeb4142]

Tapioca starch and maple syrup.

[@luminvader8911]

This is so awesome and seems easy to make completely gluten free! Thanks for making it because most recipes are hard to do gluten free

[@PlantBasedFolk]

I think it would be great with noodles. Looks so flavoursome

[@Brooklyn_Patriot]

I'm not a vegan but that looked amazing, it seems that some vegan dishes take a lot of time to prepare. Enjoy watching, I think its very interesting to learn how vegan food is made/prepared but I would never stop eating meat.

[@mythic_snake]

The methylcellulose on your website is the little 2 ounce packet for $12. Where did you get that big container? And is it cheaper? I can definitely see this going really well in some Jajangmyeon noodles. Yummmmm.

[@BadPenny023]

I found some one-pound packages on Amazon for around $21 to $22.

[@julianalvarez9866]

I love tofu, so versatile!

[@cryssiejones7315]

I loved the little Babish whisk reference 😂 this tofu belly looks yummy, it will give me a belly 🤣

[@k8eekatt]

You make interesting versions of foods I have left behind. Might try this.

[@goodlad1961]

Whoa this looks wild

[@lmelior]

Definitely looked like Neapolitan ice cream after coming out of the freezer, but the final product looks amazing! I'd cut it thin and make a vegan BLT with avocado and smoky, spicy mayo. I really want to try this now!

[@Clara_Elena]

Now you have to make Neapolitan ice cream. I hadn't seen the pork batter like that. Now I have an ice cream craving.

[@JTMusicbox]

You really pulled this off great!

[@soy1700]

That sear looked so great.

[@wildgeese5707]

Thais was really different! Bravo

[@CrazyCupCake991]

This looks incredible!!!! Once again you did it man, unbelievable. How does it compare taste and texture wise to other types of pork-style meats you've made? I actually love the texture of tofu so this is probably perfect for me! Still I'm curious😁

[@normandybeach9230]

Looks so good! Can't wait to make this

[@annawarner7516]

You should open a vegan cafe with side deli selling your vegan meats and cheeses! I am sure you would get loads of customers

[@margarett_b]

Pork belly is totally not something I have ever been into - I actually hated all the fatty, gelly-like meats. Having said that. This is simply super impressive! The end result is so realistic while actually being much healthier than the real thing :D I am sure it would be a *bomb* ramen topping, would work nicely with some 5-spice and and if made into thinner layers, I think it would make a great addition to vegan carbonara! . Anyways, thanks for another creative plant base recipe! Have a fantastic rest of the week Mark!

[@sherryfatzinger3082]

👍👍👍a must try with noodles for me. Thank you

[@nicolasvillegas9896]

Hey Mark! Love your videos! Have you tried Colombian Bandeja Paisa? You need kidney beans, white rice, plantain, pork belly and avocado. Try it! You'll love it. It's the quintessential Colombian Dish

Bacon is made from pork belly

[@PMMcDaniel]

I've never had pork belly. Even when I ate meat, I did not eat pork. But I've seen so many make it on Master Chef, and they think it is the bees knees. This looks incredible, and as you are eating it I'm scrunching my face, as if you are eating real pork. I love your creative recipe, but don't know if I could eat it.....but I want to try.....???

[@BrazillianFOsho]

Looks SO good

[@trishrenee06]

Can you make a new "seafood" using hearts of palm? I've been wanting fish and/or shrimp (I'm allergic to seafood though) and I think that may work...

[@copacopa1013]

Aw you two are so cute!!!!

[@tsimms5656]

I would have loved to see you slice it and fry it up like bacon.

[@SauceStache]

I did... but not on video.. I wish I would have added it in because it came out so good!

Can you do your take on vegan butter?

[@SauceStache]

Yeah that would be fun!!

[@TheBLGL]

This reminds me of this chay (Buddhist vegan) place I used to go to in Vietnam that made bun cha chay (vegan bun cha)! It looked gross when he was making it but now I’m making vegan bun cha using this after seeing the end. When his wife asked him what he’d use it in, I’m screaming “bun cha of course” at my phone. For those who have never lead the chance to live in Vietnam, it’s what Obama and Anthony Bourdain when Obama visited Hanoi, it’s a Hanoi dish but the place I’m talking about was in Saigon.

[@TheShoemakerb1]

(Light Bulb Appears Over Head) Sisig. A Filipino dish that I've heard referred to as a great thing to have after a night of drinking, the next big food fad in the US, and more. I even saw a Subway in Manila that had a Sisig hot sub. It's good. Very good. In the Philippines, it's usually made using, well, pork face. I know about this because I live there part time (VERY part time since COVID). It's unnerving to see one sitting around in the meat counter in the supermarket, lemme tell you. Anyway, In the US, it's more often made using pork belly. Your faux pork belly would probably be easier to work with and really appeal to those who would enjoy fake pork belly. Fewer steps and far less greasiness to worry about!
