Post Sous Vide Char Siu (叉烧) Pork Glaze
There's nothing more tasty in a bowl of noodles or side of steamed rice than char siu pork. It's the ultimate Chinese comfort food. We often buy them cooked at the local Asian market at the BBQ stands and freeze for later.
Best way to bring back the tenderness, flavor and sticky glaze is the sous vide + broil method (see directions below).
