Pork Belly and Pak Choi Noodle Soup

Making this fragrant and tasty Pork Belly and Pak Choi Noodle Soup for dinner may take a bit a time, but it's well-worth the effort, I can assure you! Happy Saturday!

Ingredients (serves 3):

1 large garlic clove, minced

1 heaped tablespoon Ginger Paste 

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 teaspoons Hot Pepper Sauce 

½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 heaped tablespoon pure honey

½ cup water

1 ½ tablespoon toasted sesame oil

1 thumb-sized piece fresh ginger

a large garlic clove, minced

half a red Garden Chilli 

2 beautiful pak choi

3 tablespoon soy sauce

2 tablespoon sweet soy sauce

1 tablespoon Nuoc mam (fish sauce)

5 cups water

90 grams/3 ounces large rice noodles

1 tablespoon demerara sugar

Preheat oven to 200°C/395°F.

Using a sharp knife, remove the thick pig skin from the pork belly, so you are left with a layer of fat. With the knife, score the fat in a criss-cross manner.

Combine minced garlic, Ginger Paste, soy sauce, Hot Pepper Sauce and black pepper in a small bowl. Stir in sesame oil and honey until well-blended. Generously rub ginger and soy mixture all over the pork belly.

Sit pork belly, fat-side up, into a roasting tin, and pour water at the bottom of the tin.

Place roasting tin into the hot oven, and roast, at 200°C/395°F, for 30 to 35 minutes, until golden brown on top.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

In a large wok, heat toasted sesame oil over medium-high heat.

Peel ginger, and cut it into very thin slices. Add to the wok, and fry, a couple of minutes. Add garlic, and cook, 1 minute more. 

Thinly slice Garden Chilli, and stir into the wok. Cook, a couple of minutes.

Thoroughly rinse pak choi under cold water.

Cut off and discard the bottom of the pak choi, and cut off the leaves, reserving for later. Chop white part of the pak choi, and stir into the wok. Cook, coating in oil and spices, about 5 minutes.

Deglaze with soy sauce, sweet soy sauce, and Nuoc Mam. Stir in water, and bring to the boil.

In a smaller pot, bring water to the boil.

Once boiling, stir in the rice noodles. Cook, 7 minutes.

Remove from the heat, drain the noodles, rinsing under cold water and plunge them in a bowl filled with ice water. Set aside.

Stir demerara sugar into the wok, until dissolved.

Finally, stir in reserved pak choi leaves, and cook until just wilted.

Once cool enough to handle, cut soy and ginger pork belly into thin slices.

Drain rice noodles and place a heap at the bottom of each of three shallow plates. Top with hot pak choi broth. Finally, scatter soy and ginger pork belly on top.

Serve Pork Belly and Pak Choi Noodle Soup immediately.

Better still, I've got several, including a couple with their modern name, "colatura". (I keep misreading that as "coloratura", prompting some very odd mental images.)

The one you're thinking of is from Terre Exotique, €14,90 for 100ml.

This one's from Maison Dehesa, about €22,00 for 100ml.

And this one from Armatore, €20,00 for 100ml.

Darker versions may be more concentrated. Looking further for "colatura" rather than "garum" turned up a brand which comes with an eyedropper (€24,40) or a spray (€18,15).

Both suggest a sauce used With Restraint.

I'd already worked that out from the prices... :->

incredible pompeii book fact that i will think about forever:

Garum, a sort of Roman fish sauce, was everywhere in Rome and apparently Pompeii was particularly famous for their garum industry. There’s lots of sources both in and outside Pompeii, and several different manufacturers and sellers have been found in the city.

The part that I can’t stop thinking about: jars of garum have been found with labels advertising it as kosher.

I mean, of course you hear about the conflicts between the Romans and Jews. They were very much in one another’s orbits. But still, the fact that there was apparently enough of a market in Pompeii to specifically create and sell kosher fish sauce… you know?

Since I made a big batch of do chua (julienned and pickled carrot and daikon) for the banh mi, this was the logical next recipe.

Before you get to the salad though, you should get together the nuoc mam cham.

This has so few ingredients, it comes together quick. Lime juice, sugar, water, raw garlic and a birds eye chili. And the ace in the hole, fish sauce.

I've never been a big fan of fish sauce (picky bitch strikes again), but this one little bowl of sauce is the most surprising thing I've tasted in a while.

Unassuming, but packed with flavour. I suggest seeding the pepper unless you're a spice champion.

It's zangy and literally mouth watering. I absolutely need to look up what else I can dip in this. Let it sit for thirty minutes while you get the salad together.

After boiling a couple eggs for 9 minutes, pick some herbs and slice some scallions and you're pretty much done. Toss it all together and bam.

Spoon some of the sauce/dressing over it and serve immediately. Very fresh and summery with the mint and basil.

| Do Chua Salad with Herbs, Scallions, Sprouts, and Egg & Nuoc Mam Cham |

Taste was a 2.5 out of 5. Altogether it was okay. The dipping sauce was way better on it's own.

Difficulty was a 3.5 out of 5. A lot of prep, especially for the do chua.

Time was around 40 minutes, not counting the do chua prep the day before. See the banh mi recipe for specifics on that part.

I would make this again as a simmer side dish, but probably leave out the eggs and cilantro. Tony suggests adding a pork cutlet to make this a main dish type of salad. Might just do that.

Description: During the War, Vietnam's coast had to be protected against Viet Cong ambushes and smuggling. The U.S. forces had destroyers, cruisers and gargantuan aircraft carriers, none suited for inshore patrol. This is the story of the Brown Water Navy, the garage-band flotilla assembled to do the job.Douglas Branson has been to Vietnam several times, including trips in 1966, 1995 and 2011. The first time, he was a 22-year-old, Brown Water Navy lieutenant JG. Subsequent visits were as a consultant/tourist. Here, Branson recounts three of his Vietnam adventures with humor, detail and insight into the economic, political and gastronomic forces at work.

Review: I'll be honest, I didn't finish this book. I read the vietnam war part, and skipped the rest because even the war part was difficult to get through. This wasn't quite a 1 star book but it definitely came close. For anyone who has read anything about Operation Market Time, the Swift boats, or even coastal advisors - this book sets off red flags and alarm bells. The author has some very strong opinions about everyone and everything and often ... well ... let's just say that he vacillates wildly from complete bullshit to just plain stupid. Avoid this book and read Bob Andretta's Brown Water Runs Red for a better book on the Junk Force.

As much for my own reference as anything, I've tried to transcribe this as a recipie - this isn't a substitute for seeing how it goes together in the video, but should hopefully be useful to anyone trying to make it themselves.

Ingredients:

-Napa cabbage -Salt -Shiitake mushrooms -Green [spring] onions -Fresh Cilantro [coriander] (OPTIONAL: for some people this tastes like soap) -Ginger -Garlic -Oil for frying (probably groundnut oil?) -Ground [minced] turkey (OPTIONAL: other meat/protein works or can be left out) (turkey is naturally very lean though so not sure what the effect would be of high fat meats) -Soy sauce -Oyster sauce -Rice vinegar -Sugar -White pepper -Cornstarch -Seasame oil -Mung bean vermicelli noodles -Ready made spring roll pastry sheets -Egg -Optional: Nuoc Mam (vietnamese fish sauce) or other sauce for dipping

Method:

-Shred, heavily salt and massage the cabbage. Set aside for the salt to pull out the moisture. -Finely chop the mushrooms, carrots, spring onions, and coriander (if using) -Crush the ginger and garlic with the flat side of a knife -Put the vermicelli noodles in warm water to soak. Set aside. -Beat an egg with a little water to make an egg wash. Set aside. -Sauté [fry while tossing/stirring] the carrots, letting them cook down [lose water and reduce in volume] -Add the mushrooms and green onions, continue to sauté until the mushrooms start to cook down -Push the vegetables to the side and add the ground turkey, continue to sauté -Once the mixture is nearly cooked add the garlic and ginger, continue to sauté -[once cooked?] add soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, a little sugar, white pepper and a little cornstarch -[presumably stir all this on the heat?] -Remove from heat and add seasame oil, stir everything together -Rinse the cabbage well and squeeze out moisture -Strain the vermicelli noodles and cut up into small pieces with kitchen shears -Mix the cabbage with the coriander, cooked meat and vegetables, and the noodles in a large bowl -Add the mixture onto pastry sheets and roll as per video, taking care not to overfill -Use egg wash like glue to seal the final corners -Heat a saucepan with enough oil to reach most of the way up the spring rolls -The oil is hot enough when the tip of a DRY wooden chopstick bubbles in it (a wet chopstick may spit oil at you) -Deep fry the spring rolls until golden brown, turning frequently - about 5 minutes -Serve, optionally with sauce for dipping
