Most people are familiar with steamed pork with rice flour, as it's a widely popular traditional dish in many parts of China. The fragrant and glutinous five-spice pork belly, coated in a layer of tender steamed rice flour, is delicious whether paired with pumpkin or potatoes.
While steamed pork with rice flour is delicious, mastering the correct method is crucial. If not done properly, the pork belly can be unflavored and greasy, and the steamed rice flour may be undercooked, dry, and hard.
Sometimes, even when I think I've done everything right, the result is still unsatisfactory, and my family doesn't enjoy it.
After learning two tips online, I realized that you shouldn't steam the pork directly. If you're not sure how to do it, let's learn together. With these two tips, the steamed pork will be tender, flavorful, not greasy, and not undercooked—a truly satisfying dish!
【Two Tips】
First: Marinating
After cutting the pork belly, don't add seasonings and steam it directly. Marinating is necessary. Add the seasonings, mix well, and add the steamed rice flour. Mix well and marinate for about 20 minutes for better flavor and aroma.
Second: Cover with Plastic Wrap
When steaming, don't place it directly in the steamer. Cover the surface with plastic wrap or a plate to prevent water droplets from falling during steaming. This will make the steamed pork more flavorful and prevent it from being affected by steam.
【Steamed Pork with Rice Flour】
Ingredients: Pork belly, potatoes, scallions, ginger, steamed rice flour, soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt, sugar, pepper
1. Prepare a piece of pork belly, wash it, and cut it into even slices. Now, let's marinate it. This step is essential. Add scallions, ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt, sugar, and pepper. If you like spicy food, you can add some chili. Mix well.
2. Prepare a package of steamed rice flour. Choose evenly sized flour, not too coarse or too fine, as it will affect the taste. Add the steamed rice flour to the pork belly and mix well. Marinate for at least 20-30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.
3. While the pork belly is marinating, cut the potatoes. Peel, wash, and cut them into chunks. Place them at the bottom of a plate. Once the pork belly is marinated, place it on top of the potatoes, cover with plastic wrap, and prepare to steam.
4. Place the steamed pork in the steamer. After the water boils, steam over medium heat for about 1 hour. The fragrant steamed pork is ready to be served.
The steamed pork cooked this way will be more flavorful, without being undercooked or greasy, and the potatoes will be very soft and glutinous. It's truly delicious!
