A CLOSER LOOK
How to recognize it
Cooked boneless pork roasted with a sweet-savory glaze; sliced meat has browned edges and a tender, sometimes fatty centre.
In the kitchen
Sliced onto rice or noodle soups, or diced for fillings.
One representative glaze uses hoisin, honey, light soy sauce, red fermented bean curd, five-spice and white pepper. Recipes differ; check soy, wheat, honey and other sauce ingredients. Not crisp-skinned roast pork.
