Cooking techniques make a difference to a dish. It’s true for any food, but the difference is much more pronounced with Asian food. Asian cuisine has a reputation for rich and spicy flavors, but that’s not necessarily the case. A number of Asian cuisines have less sauce, salt and spice than their Western counterparts. They’re often healthier, too. This is because Asian cooking relies less on gluten, high-fat or oily food, and more on legumes, fish, and vegetables. Here are some cooking methods that’ll make your pork skin crispy.
How to cook the perfect pork skin crispy
Pork skin is so tasty, but it can be a little tough to eat. That’s why it’s important to cook it perfectly. And the perfect crispy skin is actually easier than you may think. Pork skin, or cracklins as they’re also known, is a type of pig skin that has the same shape as a typical pork loin. Pork cracklins are made by drying the pork skin, then dunking it in a solution of salt, water, and sodium carbonate (aka lye). Once they’re prepared, they’re typically fried in oil or cooked in a baking dish for a short time. If you want to try making your own pork skin crispy, you’ll need to find pork skin that’s not particularly thick. The cracklins should be fairly thin, since this will make them easier to cook. You’ll also want to make sure that you have a clean work area. Then, you’ll need to remove the cracklins from the lye solution. To get the cracklins out, you’ll want to either wash them in a separate bowl of water, or wrap them in paper towels and then place them in a pan of hot water. You’ll want to be careful not to accidentally burn yourself with the hot lye solution. Once the cracklins are removed from the lye solution, you’ll want to pat them dry with paper towels.
What is the best type of sauce for pork skin?
This really depends on the sauce. For a sticky, sweet sauce, try putting soy sauce and honey in a blender and then using that on your pork skin.
How to make pork skin crispy

Steps to prepare for cooking pork skin
Pork skin is often used to make stock, or for braising. Pork skin is very dense, and so it can take a long time to cook. To help speed up the cooking process, first dry out the skin by covering it with a dish towel. Next, dust the skin with flour. This will help keep the skin from sticking to the pan, which will allow you to get it off easier. Next, season the skin with salt and pepper. This will help the flour to adhere to the pork skin, and keep the skin crispy during the cooking process. And finally, add water. This will help the pork skin to cook quickly.
