I finally did my first braised pork belly last week, purchased from 4505 Meats in San Francisco (I was visiting down there last week.) They had a piece I could not pass up. Skin on and ribs on. I was perhaps nuts for choosing such a luxurious piece for my first try. So my strategy was to just stay out its way.<br /><br />I scored the skin, seared, then added lots of garlic and herbs, white wine, and stock. Braised for hours. Then I took out the meat and put it under the broiler to get a good crisp on that skin. I still need practice to get the skin just right but it was a magnificent piece of meat.<br /><br />I heard this lovely butcher shop is known as Rainbow Grocery's meat section. ;)philogaiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02570156509307983353noreply@blogger.com
