=========================================
Recipe:
(Please refer to the blog post for the full explanation and download the recipe: )

Ingredients:
Marinade:
750 g pork belly
10g salt
15g sugar
1/2 tsp ground white pepper
1 tsp Chinese five-spice powder
1 tbsp Shaoxing wine
1 tsp hoisin sauce (optional)
Others:
1 tbsp white vinegar
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp oil
Method::
– Bring a pot of shallow water to a boil. Blanch the pork belly in water for 10 minutes, skin side down. After blanching, remove the pork and let it cools.
– Scrape the skin with a knife to remove any dirt and remaining hairs.
– Prick multiples small hole on the skin with a small fork.
– Make a few shallow cuts on the flesh side of the pork, halfway through the meat.
– Mix all the marinade ingredients. Combine the seasoning in a small bowl, then massage it all over the meat, particularly between the cuts.
– Keep the skin clean from the marinade.
– Mix one tablespoon of white vinegar with a half teaspoon of baking soda in a small bowl. Apply a thin layer of the mixture on the skin.
– Keep the pork in the fridge overnight.
– Remove the pork belly from the refrigerator at least one hour before roasting so that the pork returns to room temperature.
– Sprinkle half a teaspoon of salt on the skin just before it goes in the oven. Wipe off the excess moisture.
– Apply a thin layer of oil on the skin. Roast the pork on a medium rack for 1.5 hours at 150°C.
– Now place the pork on the top rack. Change the oven setting to 230°C, top heat only for thirty minutes, or until the skin has turned to golden brown with multiple blisters.
