Chasu Glazed Pork Loin Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• In a bowl, mix the honey, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, and balsamic vinegar.
• Place the pork tenderloins in a roasting pan, and roast 15 minutes in the preheated oven.
• Remove pork from oven, and baste with the honey sauce. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and continue roasting pork 45 minutes, basting occasionally with the honey sauce, to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Cut pork with the grain into strips 1 1/2- to 2-inches long; put into a large resealable plastic bag.
• Stir soy sauce, honey, ketchup, brown sugar, rice wine, hoisin sauce, red food coloring or red bean curd (see Cook's Note), and Chinese five-spice powder together in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook and stir until just combined and slightly warm, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the marinade into the bag with the pork, squeeze air from the bag, and seal. Turn bag a few times to coat all pork pieces in marinade.
• Marinate pork in refrigerator, 2 hours to overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove pork from marinade and shake to remove excess liquid. Discard remaining marinade.
• Cook pork on preheated grill for 20 minutes. Put a small container of water onto the grill and continue cooking, turning the pork regularly, until cooked through, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Make sauce with soy, sugar, molasses, catsup and garlic.
• Cut pork loin into 1 1/2x4-inch strips.
• Marinate meat for 2 hours in sauce; store in the refrigerator.
• Bake in oven for 1 hour at 350° basting often.
• Serve with hot mustard on the side.

Steps:

• Mix together the sake, water, soy sauce, sugar, green onions and ginger in a large pot.
• Halve or quarter the pork belly into large, manageable pieces.
• Transfer the pork belly pieces to the pot. Bring to just under a boil, but do not boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer poach slowly on the stove (alternatively, you can use an oven at 300 degrees F) until tender, about 2 hours 30 minutes.
• Check for tenderness by piercing the middle of each piece. When tender, allow to cool in the liquid for 2 hours off the heat, then transfer to the refrigerator to completely rest overnight in the liquid.
• The next day, remove the pork belly from the liquid and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Warm the pork belly with a bit of sauce and serve as a topping for Spicy Miso Ramen with the various garnishes. Serve 2 slices per person.
