Had a couple pound chunk of pork loin in the freezer. Decided to marinate in a Vietnamese’s style marinade. I originally planned on rotisserie cooking it but some other thing got in the way. So the night before I made the marinade put it and the loin in Vac bag and Vac packed it. I use the pulse mode on the VacMaster to get most the air out and seal.
In the morning it set up the Anova and plopped the bag in. Set at 145 and let it run for 10 hours.
I knew I wouldn’t have time to mess with searing. So all the cook was Sous vide.
When it was time for dinner I pulled the roast . Let it rest for 10 minutes. While resting I boiled the marinade down into more of a sauce.
Came out great. Nice and moist. Fork tender no knife needed. Served over rice with the reduced sauce .
for the sauce I used why I had on hand. Grocery day was the next day so I didn’t have a lot of the fresh stuff I’d normally use so all dry spices.
4 tablespoons soy sauce
4 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons gochujang
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ginger powder
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons coconut milk powder
2 whole star anise crushed
1/2 cup water.
normally I’d add lime juice and lemon grass or lemon grass paste but I didn’t have these item. Normally I’d use fresh ginger and garlic
