Delicious Pork Knuckle King Introduction
Established for over 20 years in the culinary scene of Dapinglin, Xindian, Delicious Pork Knuckles, run by Boss Wan, captivates gourmets with his unique secret technique for braising pork knuckles. Just looking at the several old braising pots at the entrance, with each pot's pork knuckles set at different levels of heat, arranged in a visually pleasing way, and emitting an enticing aroma, paired with strict quality control that ensures a consistent and delightful taste, makes it hard to resist the allure of this delicacy. The signature pork knuckles are the culmination of Boss Wan's decades of experience, using carefully selected sections of fresh pork knuckles and hooves from the market each day. Before cooking, they are blanched to remove any odd smells, then chilled to firm up the meat. Next, the ingredients are prepared the day before, whereby the pork is boiled, depilated, and then braised with scallions and garlic over high heat for seven to eight hours before being simmered on low heat. Boss Wan explains that just before serving in the restaurant, the pork knuckles are braised over high heat again and then simmered, repeating this process several times ensures that the pork knuckles achieve a melt-in-your-mouth texture, tender yet rich flavor, and are fatty without being greasy. Diners here often find themselves unintentionally finishing several bowls of the main dish, braised pork rice, alongside the delicious pork knuckles.
