  1. Hello, I have a Ninja air fryer, it has many types of function can be used, including air fry or bake. Which of these functions did you select on the 1st method, air fry or bake? If you could answer my question, it would be greatly appreciated.

  2. This is a great video. One of the best cooking videos I've ever seen. You show both methods and discuss the pros and cons. Very well done. After watching this, I'm seeing that the whole air fryer method is probably irrelevant for 95% of those watching. The fact is that the overwhelming majority of those buying pork belly are getting it from a store that sells it either wrapped or vacuum sealed. (Both Costco and my local Asian markets – Lotte and HMart – sell it like that. Only one place – Great Wall Supermarket sells it from a butcher case and I wouldn't buy it there because of the higher price.) So, for me and most people, you may as well use your mom's traditional oven method. It also looks like it makes the poking process a whole lot easier and more thorough. Question: Once you have dried the seasoned pork bellies overnight, is there any reason you can't vacuum seal those, freeze them, thaw, salt cap, and bake them for later? Again, great video. Thanks!

  3. One of the best explanations I've seen, and I've watched pretty much all of them, since you break down the logic behind each of the steps and get into some of the science of it. Really appreciate it! Do you think using a Jaccard meat tenderizer would make it enhance the bubbles due to more holes allowing for more dessication of the skin, release of steam and fat rendering during the puff phase of cooking?
