Tips:
1. The key to the deliciousness of lion head lies in whipping the meat. It is necessary to ensure that the meat is whipped by hand, that is to ensure that the meat is full and the taste will be full of flexibility
2. When stewing lion's head, be sure to use a pot under cold water. The firepower should not be too high, so as to ensure that the meat filling is heated at the same time. If the firepower is too high, the meat filling will be broken when the soup is boiling, and it is not easy to form a ball.
3. Pork must be evenly fat and lean. The best lion's head is made with pork belly that is fat four and thin six. Too much lean meat will make the taste more woody, and too much fat will make it difficult to form a lump, so the choice of meat filling is The key (this time I bought plum meat, which is the front butt meat of pigs. The meat of this part is relatively tender, and I personally feel that it is just fat and thin)
