About Velveted pork
Velveted Pork is a tender stir-fried dish originating from Chinese cuisine, renowned for its smooth, lush texture. The term “velveting” refers to a cooking method where thinly sliced pork is marinated in a mixture of egg whites, cornstarch, and rice vinegar, then briefly blanched or parboiled in oil or water to lock in moisture and flavor. This technique results in pork that is soft, succulent, and ideal for pairing with vibrant vegetables and savory sauces. Velveted Pork is rich in protein, supporting muscle health, but its preparation often incorporates added fats and sodium depending on the accompanying ingredients and sauces. For a healthier option, it can be stir-fried with minimal oil and served with fiber-rich vegetables. This dish is a balance of indulgence and nutrition, often enjoyed both in traditional home cooking and modern interpretations of Chinese fare.
