This is a crispy roast meat vermicelli that I prepared myself with my own recipe, using an oil-free fryer. The main course of the meal is crispy roast meat served with cucumber, herbs and leaf vermicelli. The meat dish is more attractive thanks to the dipping sauce. I mix the dipping sauce with ingredients including 1-2 teaspoons of water, soy sauce, sugar, and lemon. The finished product from my recipe is the charred meat on the outside, the skin is crispy, the meat is still fat, the lean part doesn’t dry out. In order for the food to be delicious, the meat needs to be carefully selected. The bacon must only have the ratio of fat, lean evenly, the layer is about 1.5-2 cm thick. To make the food, I prepare about 1 kg of meat, a bowl of white salt. I cut a lot of fat and bring the fish stock. The rest have lean layers, fat evenly rotated. First, the meat is soaked in boiling water until it is ripe, then blot dry with a paper towel. I used a hairdryer to dry all over my skin for about 5 minutes, taking a sharp knife diagonally around the skin. Next, I covered the meat with aluminum foil, just exposing it. Note the foil is wrapped higher than the tare to spread salt on it. In the next step, the meat is placed in an oil-free fryer and sprinkled with salt to cover the skin. Salt has the effect of drying and exploding without making the meat salty. The oil-free fryer is set at 200 degrees C and cooked for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, the salt will dry again and form a block. I removed the salt from the skin. The skin is dry and roasted at this time. I replace the foil, put it around and under the meat, leave the cuticles, continue to fry at 200 degrees C for 40 minutes. My fryer has a capacity of 1,700 w. If the fryer capacity is higher, you should reduce the heat accordingly. Note, this second time should not open the pot during frying. After 40 minutes, the result is an attractive roast pork piece. The tender flesh is sweet, fragrant, the skin is crunchy, has a salty taste of salt, and an eye-catching dark yellow color.

Plump One of Phu Tho’s specialties is palm palm, processed from a small glutinous palm variety, for a flexible, fragrant part. After picking, people wash the palms and heads by boiling for 5 – 10 minutes to soften, then take out and enjoy. The steps are simple but require workers to be experienced because if they are done too carefully, the brush will be crushed and lose fatness; if not well, the brush will be embarrassed. Palmina is a popular dish, often served with garlic fish sauce. In addition to the red palm, the Phu Tho people also make palm salt into a melon or warehouse with fish. Palm leaves rice ball To have a fragrant and sticky palm leaf rice dish, choose a delicious rice cooked with rain water. After blowing the cooked rice, a wet towel was pulled out, then grasped tightly, rolling it thoroughly so that the rice ball was round, firm but still soft and supple. Before that, people had to choose the leaves of the rice cakes (young leaves), cleaned, dried and heated to soften. Next is to cut the palm leaves into square pieces and wrap the split rice balls, tie the ends up, then roll over and over. Rice is held with palm leaves for a sweet, fragrant flavor that can be kept for a few days. The palm leaf rice ball is often dipped with sesame salt or eaten with dry roasted pork, salted eggs … Palm silkworms Palm silkworm is a dish that only Phu Tho has. 1 week before processing, people cut a palm tree and then drop into the trunk about 20-30 silkworms to eat them until they are fat, the skin turns yellow and white before they can be processed. The first is to drop silkworms in a bowl of diluted vinegar to let them get rid of dirt, and prepare spices including salt, chili, pepper, and MSG. Then, people skew the silkworms through the bars of a small brush and grill over charcoal. When the aroma emanates from the grilled silkworms, the yellow brown color can be enjoyed. Grilled palm silkworms will taste better when enjoyed while still hot.
