A cold, sliced, spicy pork appetizer. Ingredients:
3 cups water |
1/3 cup soy sauce |
3 tablespoons dry sherry |
2 tablespoons sugar |
3 fresh ginger root slices; 1/8-inch thick |
2 garlic cloves; minced |
2 dried star anise pods |
2 cinnamon sticks; 2-inch pieces |
3 pounds pork, tenderloin, roast or butt; cleaned, trimmed |
Directions:
1. Crush the quarter sized slices of ginger with the flat surface of the cleaver. Mix all the other broth ingredients in a pot, add the pork meat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, turning occasionally.
2. Cook until meat is fork tender; 1 hour for tenderloin and 2-1/2 hours for roast or butt.
3. When done remove the pork, cool it, then cover and refrigerate until cold.
4. Thinly slice the meat across the grain and serve with condiments.
