To make the brine. Bring water to a boil. Add bay leaf and star anise. Simmer for 30 Min. Turn off the heat. Season to taste with salt and chicken powder.
*It has to be on the salty side. Let it cool down completely.
Now let’s cook the pork hock. Make sure the pork hock is defrosted completely. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the pork hock. Simmer for 1 - 1½ Hour depending on the size.
Mine took 1 Hour and 30 Minutes.
When done place the pork hock in an ice bath. Let it sit until cold.
Cut out 2 halves and remove the bone.
Put the pork hock in the brine and refrigerate overnight.
Cut in thin slices. I served it with a homemade sauce made with vinegar/water, sugar, minced garlic and chili peppers.
Enjoy! ✿◕ ‿ ◕✿
TIPS & NOTES
✿ Adjust salt to personal preferences. The brine should be on the salty side.
✿ Depending on the size of the pork hock, cooking time may differ.
