Store-bought char siu pork can be dry or hard, or too salty. This is the delicious homemade char siu we make all the time.To store this for some time, stop at Step 4. Heat it up, container and all, in the microwave just before eating. Recipe by TOMOTOMO

I used a 2.5 liter pressure cooker. Storebought char siu pork has preservatives that I worry about, so I make my own instead. I poach the meat in sake to prevent it from becoming tough, and use as little soy sauce as possible in the seeping sauce.Brown the meat to seal in the juices.If you poke the meat several times with a skewer before putting in the bag, the sauce flavors will penetrate well.The flavors will blend easily if you put the bag with the meat in a bowl and turn it over occasionally.

For two years now, I've been on a journey to find the perfect recipe for the best char siu. Finally, I've managed to settle down and put this recipe together.I recommend you poke a few holes into the aluminum foil when using as a drop lid. Also, make sure that it covers the meat tightly.You can also make this with pork roast blocks. I've tried using this amount of sauce for 1kg block of meat. If you have any leftover sauce, freeze that in a zip bag to make char siu or fried rice in the future. For 4 servings. Recipe by Ka-ka@

The idea for this recipe just struck me one day. It also tastes delicious if you marinate julienned cucumbers.Garlic soy sauce is soy sauce that has been marinated with garlic slices (or whole cloves) for 2 weeks. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

I wanted to come up with a recipe using the rice cooker.Everything is left up to the rice cooker so I don't have any hints. Just switch on your rice cooker machine on as you would with regular rice. Recipe by Komatsuta

I tried cooking chicken in the way I made char siu pork previously ’＝’.I made the Chinese garlic chive flavored boiled egg to accompany the meat with the leftover sauce. I made this with chicken breast meat, and didn't use any water in the sauce. Transfer the sauce to a clean container, and it will keep for about a month in the refrigerator and be used for many things. Recipe by Osakuntochiisan

Homemade char siu is delicious but it takes quite a bit of time. So I came up with a way to make it easy and with only a few ingredients.-If you add leftover Japanese leek or onion, the flavor will be even richer!-Please adjust the amount of ingredients to suit your tastes. Recipe by kaorixmei

-If you want to reuse the marinade, bring it to a boil again, and store in a sealed container in the refrigerator.-It's hard to get a hold of bone-in chicken breast in Japan, and it's a bother to de-bone it anyway, so I thought up this easy recipe.-It's great as an appetizer to eat with beer! Yummy!-Since the meat is salted before it's boiled, it loses its gaminess and the umami intensifies!-This is usually made with bone-in chicken, but this recipe uses boneless meat which is easier to deal with.-Since it's cooked while wrapped in plastic, the umami doesn't escape and the resulting char siu is moist and tender. For 4 to 5 servings. Recipe by Cooking S Papa

I saw how to make this authentic dish on TV, and tried making it my own style.Char siu is all about roasting. If you boil it, it will be boiled pork. The key to delicious roasted pork is the surprisingly sweet sauce! It's best to use block shoulder roast. Also, I recommend marinating for as long as possible. I usually let it marinate for 2-3 days.The recipe gives enough sauce to marinate 1kg of block meat. For 4 servings. Recipe by kuisinbou

This recipe came from a TV show about Mexican pork. The kids love it, and the spiciness is tempered by using pork instead of chicken. I developed this method to bake it so the fat renders, leaving behind only juicy, tender meat.Baking in an oven is the key here. It comes out really juicy. If possible, bake directly on a grill set above a pan to catch the drips while steaming the meat to make it even juicier. You can also fry it over a regular grill. Don't forget to cover with aluminum foil to prevent burning! Recipe by Toiroiro

I watched my mother making this and just copied her, but she uses the pork shoulder (butt), maybe because of the calories? I, on the other hand, prefer to use pork belly.It's more convenient to divide the pork into small pieces before freezing.The char siu is already flavored well when it's done cooking, so you can take it out of the simmering liquid to cool. The eggs will be well flavored after marinating in the simmering liquid for an hour. Recipe by SKYDRIVE

I like char siu and I wanted to try to make it with chicken. Also I wanted to make an easy recipe using a microwave. I am very satisfied that you can make this in just 10 minutes. You can use this as a topping for ramen. Nibble on it with drinks or enjoy it as the main course for dinner.While cooking in a microwave, it is key to turn over the chicken! By doing this the marinade is absorbed well and evenly The parchment paper circle in a bowl is important so don't forget it Leaving to stand overnight enhances the flavour. If you are in a hurry, let sit for at least 2 hours. You can make this with chicken breast but I prefer chicken thighs. Recipe by Toiroiro
