Dachang Braised Pork BellyDachang Braised Pork Belly is a traditional Chinese dish made primarily with skin-on pork belly. The pork belly is cut into pieces, blanched, then simmered with ginger, scallions, cooking wine, soy sauce, rock sugar, and other seasonings over low heat until the meat becomes tender and the fat melts into a rich, non-greasy texture. The finished dish has a glossy red-brown color and soft, glutinous meat. It is typically served with steamed rice.
