A traditional Shanghai-style braised pork belly with deep umami flavor from soy sauce and nuodou, without any spices

Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • For the signature dark red hue and rich flavor of Hongsook, Chinese black soybean paste (nuodou or nodouyu) is essential.
  • Do not hesitate to discard the oil produced during the initial searing—it ensures a clean, non-greasy taste.
  • If ice sugar is unavailable, regular sugar can be substituted, but using ice sugar results in a shinier finish and a more delicate sweetness.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a special meat dish with a texture similar to Dongpa Yook, tender yet satisfyingly chewy.
  • Home cooks who want to recreate high-end Chinese dishes using simple ingredients.
