In the era of material scarcity, a piece of pork belly represents the love of parents. I still remember that time when salted fish steamed pork belly, with fragrance, salty, sweet and oily pork belly was enjoyed in my mouth. At that time, there were only a few pieces of meat, and we ate them, and our parents were still asking if it was delicious. At that time, we were just busy eating and didn't think anything else. Actually, my parents saved it for us to eat. It is not only delicious, but also contains deep love. No matter how much you eat when you grow up, you can't eat that taste.
Now that the material is rich, there are many ways to eat pork belly, such as braised pork with plum vegetables, braised pork with taro, roasted meat and so on. You can steam pork belly with black bean paste and garlic, or you can eat pork belly wrapped in zongzi.
Pure lean meat has no soul to eat and no oily feeling to bite, especially now that pork is not as fragrant as before, it feels like chewing wax. Now lean meat is only used to make soup.
To tell the truth, pork belly is not very delicious, but it tastes like memories, just like going back to childhood. Although it doesn't smell like that anymore, at least there are some memories.
