OK. Tried it today. My observations are. 1. Buy one of those needle hammers, a few dollars shipped from China. I tried it with a knife and its not as good. 2. Moisture - I agree kills the cracking. Even if you invert it post cooking, you generate moisture. Make sure you rest it cracking side up. 3. Salt. Get fine powdered salt no seal salt. Draws out more moisture. 4. Watch it like a hawk when you are towards the end of cooking. Brown is good blackening isn't, it becomes bitter. 5. I'd leave it until it was cold. 6. Scraping. If you have hairs, burn them off on a burner or a blow torch. 7. The blanching of the meat. Your dad's right. Its needed. 8 Boiled white rice, pak choi + oyster sauce + sesame oil - that's all you need

Thanks Daddy Lau! My 12-year old American born son told me about this channel and we have been watching the videos all the times to make the dishes. We also went to ranch 99 together to get all the ingredients and follow Daddy Lau’s recipes. Sometimes we just said “hey, which vinegar did Daddy Lau use?” as if Daddy Lau was our daddy. My son is not very good at Cantonese and Chinese culture but he gets more and more interested after watching this channel. This channel not only preserves Daddy Lau’s recipes but also provide us audience a chance to bond with our family, share the cultures, and of coz learn Cantonese!!! I also like the way Daddy Lau talks as if he is talking to me as a respectable yet very friendly 長輩. He makes me feel home (esp my parents are not in the US with me). Thank you!

depending on how many people you need to feed, start small maybe 1-2 pounds, getting the skin right is the hardest part, you really need to take time to prick the skin and let it dry with salt on top, can't rush this, and takes a little practice.

That's the Communist government that you're thinking. The people of China are fine. Although Hong Kong people are now technically part of China, they've been under British rule for over a century and a half, so their lifestyle and thinking is more under British influence. Kind of an odd comment. 🤔🙄

I have finally managed to roast crispy pork belly after experimenting over a year following different methods shared on KZfaq. I can now get the pork skin crispy consistently WITHOUT blanching it before hand, perforating it, caking a thick layer of coarse salt on the skin etc. What works for me is this - applying white vinegar TWICE between letting the pork skin dry standing in the fridge without covering for 2 days. The pork skin must dry sufficiently to feel hard to your hand specially near the edges of the skin. Roasting is done in 2 stages (1) low temperature for 1.5 hour at 150C with some water in a dish in the oven or use an oven with steam function (2) high temperature for 30 to 40 minutes at 220C (cover the sides of the meat with tin foil to avoid over browning/drying).

Thank you so much! This is a dish I have been trying to recreate for ten plus years! It's not something that's generally available from your standard take away place here in the UK (the kind that sells the more anglosised takes on Chinese cuisine, don't get me wrong it's still good, but for more authentic flavours you have to head into London, which is an impossible distance for something like take away). However back in the late 90's my parents took us on the biggest holiday we'd ever taken (we were a poor, working class family and while we were lucky to have the occasional trip abroad, these were firmly based inside of Europe), America, namely Florida. Now one night we all headed out to grab something to eat and for some reason my siblings and Father all decided that they wanted to have McDonalds (I can understand my siblings choice, the place had an absolutely massive play park attached to it), whilst my Mum and I wanted to have something else. So walking around the area near the McDonalds we were lucky enough to find this small restaurant that advertised "Authentic Chinese food" and we both decided to give it a go. What followed was one of the best meals I have ever had in my life (I was 11 at the time and am 36 now and still remember just how fantastic it was), more so than that it was a real bonding moment between myself and my Mum. The point being that this was the centrepiece dish that we shared and we both loved it so much that we ordered another serving to take back to our villa to have later on. Now in the years since then my Parents got divorced, my Mum was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and I became her full time carer. I have recently been wanting to do something for my Mum to try and show her that despite the strain our situation has put on our relationship (lets just say that a combination of poverty, familial unrest and the odd child becomes like the parent paradigm that being a carer puts you through creates a lot of upheaval) over the years that I love her essentially more than anything in the world. To be able to recreate the dish we shared together all those years ago, before life decided to kick dirt in our faces for almost 20 years, and to recollect that evening we both loved means more than my paltry words are capable of expressing. So please accept my sincerest thanks, I don't know if you read comments anymore given the size of your channel, but if you do, would you please tell your Father that I am eternally grateful to be able to take her mind back to a far more carefree age, when all that mattered was how much we loved one another. It's a gift I cannot repay, but I felt it important to state just how very much it means to me. I am sorry about the length of my message, it can be hard to express yourself well enough without rambling on. Again my sincerest and deepest thanks, I wish yourself and your parents nothing but the best in every aspect of your lives and I cannot thank you enough.

Followed this step by step (but didn't have rice wine vinegar so used white malt vinegar) and still came out perfect. Thank you Mr Lau!

I enjoyed this siu juk tutorial very much. Reminds me of a Chinese BBQ shop, New Keung Kee BBQ in Jordan, HK. Also, I haven't been home "home" for a long time and your videos of your Dad cooking reminds me of my Dad too. Thanks for the pro-cooking tips!

I absolutely adore your family! Your father is the best at describing what to do and WHY TO DO IT!!! Thanks so very much from me and my family. I am so inspired by the techniques and the instructions help me to believe in myself for this style cooking❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Great video like all of your videos! But I personally have been looking for the most perfect way to make pork belly and I just found it on your channel. God bless you and your family.💪🏾❤️

Including the entire family in your culinary journal is the best aspect of this channel, especially the little guy❤❤. We missed him in this video. Hope he will join granpa Lau in the kitchen soon😅

What a BEAUTIFUL piece of siu yuk! 🤩 I never thought of using a toothpick for poking holes, so that was mind-blowing to learn!

Everytime I watch Master Lau cooking , it recalls my memory with my grandad, they are having same Cantonese accent😊.

Thanks Daddy Lau for the wonderful recipes n great instructions! I'm Cantonese on my mom's side so most of my cooking is cantonese already but Daddy Lau brings it to restaurant level! P.s. just a note on the Chinese writing at 9:42 tho'... It's not "ng faa yuk", you mistakenly put "cha chan teng" (restaurant) instead!😂

I'm going to try this because I'm thinking what can I serve to my friends on Friday and this is perfect. I'm a filipino and my friends are Belgian. I hope I can do it 😊

Really enjoying your channel and learning traditional Chinese cooking - your dad has so many helpful tips and techniques. I cooked some basic chicken fried rice the other day following his recipes and it turned out SO good - much better than take-out 😂 Thanks for the great content!

Tried it out with just salt, black pepper, white pepper and garlic powder for seasoning and came out so good! Thank you for sharing!

Add a dash of paprika, chili powder, and a handful of brown sugar and it's a dry rub

Greetings from Malaysia. I tried this recipe today. A success. The skin really crunchy. Extra flavorful with the bean paste. TQVM Daddy Lau for your generous sharing. Gong Xi Fa Cai ❤
