Braised pork with pickled vegetables
Overview
There are many ways to eat prunes. My family often makes braised pork with pickles and vegetables, and also makes steamed buns with pork and pickles. Sometimes I stir-fry bitter melon, chili peppers, etc., and add a pinch of dried pickles to enhance the flavor. There are actually several kinds of raw materials for pickled vegetables, including those made from winter vegetables and those made from cabbage. The texture of cabbage is soft and tender, suitable for making steamed bun fillings, and it has a sweet taste. When making braised pork with pickled vegetables, you still need a slightly harder texture, and if you eat the braised pork with pickled cabbage hot for two or three times in a row, it will have more flavor and a glutinous texture. It is said that you should not eat too much leftover food, but this braised pork with pickled vegetables really gets hotter and more fragrant the longer it is left.
