Cooking tips
- Nuo chou is a dark Chinese soy sauce that enhances the deep color of dishes rather than adding saltiness—just one spoonful creates a professional-grade rich red barbecue hue.
- The high amount of sugar and honey in the sweet-savory sauce acts as a tenderizer, making the pork shoulder remarkably soft and succulent.
- While the pork is roasting, fry some scrambled rice until fluffy. Slice the finished char siu thinly and place it on top to enjoy a classic Hong Kong-style char siu rice bowl.
Recommended for
- Those looking to move beyond regular belly pork grilling or sujebi and enjoy an exotic yet deeply satisfying Chinese barbecue flavor.
- Home cooks with an oven or air fryer who want to make their own tender, sweet-savory rice topping at home.
