The Ultimate Pork Hock

Boiling, frying, and finally steaming the pork hock transforms it into something extraordinarily delicious. In Chinese, this dish is called literally “oil-processed pork hock.” The name has two meanings. The first being that the pork is deep fried, thus “processed” by the oil. The second being that the grease in the pork is extracted, or “processed” out, giving the meat a better texture.
