How to Make Chashu Pork (チャーシュー) Cooking Japanese recipe



How to Make Chashu Pork (チャーシュー) a Cooking Japanese recipe.

For many the best part of ramen is the melt-in-your-mouth slices of braised pork belly called Chashu (braised pork belly). The ramen pork is tender, salty, and sweet. It is a perfect compliment to a hot bowl of ramen.

💻RECIPE & INGREDIENTS:

Chashu originates from the Chinese barbecue pork called Char Sui. But as with many other things Chashu has gone through many changes to become a Staple of Japanese cuisine.

In this Cooking Japanese recipe we take a pork belly slab and roll it to create the shape that allows for proper cooking. They key to keeping the Chashu pork juicy is to roll and tie it tight.

A happy side effect of making Chashu is that the sauce is great for making Ramen Eggs. You can watch our Ramen Egg recipe and just replace the sauce.

  1. I just made this and I want to cry. It was so good! So very tender and moist! I didnt roll it the most amazingly well but it was so good. I can't believe I was able to make something like this. Thank you so much for your recipe!

  2. I made this yesterday and reserved the sauce to use to make ramen eggs, but the chashu sauce solidified in the fridge because of the collagen i think. Will it still work? Or do I maybe dilute it with some water first, and then soak the eggs? I'm just wondering whether or not the flavor will transfer to the eggs even if its gelled up. Thanks!

  3. Of all the chashu pork recipes, this the most that I like cause it looks so amazing and easy to make. Because I don't have slow cooker and pressure cooker. So this is very good, just regular pot 😁

    And yes, videography is very good 👌🏼

  4. You use a more reasonable level of soy sauce than other recipes I have seen. I read the book "Simply Ramen", which is worth reading, but the author's recipes produced chashu and other components that were so salty they were almost inedible. Thanks for this simple recipe and technique.

  5. OMGEEE!!! I had no idea! Thank you for sharing how this type of chashu is prepared! I’m so excited, because I received an actual “otoshi buta” (the pink one with the pig face and the chopstick holes in the snout), from my son this past Christmas. Now I have something to use it on! Thank you!! ♥️
