About Char siu bbq
Char Siu BBQ is a flavorful Chinese-style roasted pork, often enjoyed in Cantonese cuisine. Its name, "Char Siu," translates to "fork roast," referencing the traditional method of cooking the meat over an open flame on skewers. Typically made from pork shoulder or pork belly, the dish is marinated in a sweet and savory blend of soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, five-spice powder, and other spices. This marinade imparts the iconic reddish hue and caramelized crust during roasting. While Char Siu is rich in protein, it can be high in sugar and sodium, depending on the recipe. Healthier versions can be made by reducing added sugars in the marinade and pairing it with nutrient-rich sides like steamed vegetables or whole-grain rice. Overall, Char Siu BBQ is a delicious treat, best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
