Love pork chops,buy often.like pan fryer/w garlic salt .never knew about baking soda,never pounded them -- so always had tough pork chops-- still love pork. Thank you for sharing your wisdom
1. Flatten meat with mallet for a couple of minutes. 2. Bowl of water with 1/2 tbs baking soda mixed well. Soak meat for 15-20 min. Wash meat under running water. 3. Prepare sauce for marination
There many ways. I didn't beat my meat. I just put it on heavy let it set 5 hour in the frig. and risen it off good. Pat Dry, Then butter it, then season the steak It was Excellent melt in your mouth FLAVOR WAS AWESOME
Thanks very much for sharing your video recipes. I ‘m a great fan of your channel and I always look forward to your postings. Btw where can I get rose wine?
I hear Singapore in your voice. I love & miss 🇸🇬 so much; where I lived for many happy years. Westlake Spring Onion Pancakes ♥️ Do you have a similar recipe for these pancakes so I can make some for my son? Also Mah Mee noodles, his favorite‼️ New subscriber 😄
First time I went to Singapore I thought the guy had a speech impediment when he said “tree” for “three”. I subsequently found out the locals all talk like that. Singlish is really hard on the ears. This guy is ok with his accent but Singlish is nasty. wah Lao!
Hi there, I tried the baking soda trick once but it gave a horrible taste to the meat. Perhaps I used too much of it, and it was not on water... do you have a similar experience ?
Thank you, Ah Pa, for the tenderizing tip of using baking soda for pork chops! I have NEVER been able to get my pork chops truly tender. I do have a question, though? Is that "Light Soya Sauce" you are using in the marinade, right after the black pepper? Thank you. :)
You could make the marinade in the same bowl before adding chops and not have excess dishes to wash. Where the chops came from on the pig would help indicate the amount of tenderizing, no? Covering pork is braising them which tenderizes in itself.
There is a recommended ratio of 1 teaspoon for every 1/2 cup of water. But Ah Pa didn’t follow this, i only agak one bowl of water with about 1 tablespoon of baking soda.
Don't buy chops! Buy shoulder butt steaks instead, twice as big, less expensive, usually some marbling, cut out/off the fat, and no need to tenderize!!! Cook the same, add sauces as desired, and yummy. I've not bought chops for decades because butts just that good.
I threw away a jar of fermented tofu after using a few pieces because I didn't know recipes to use them for. Now I regret doing that after I've seen this video. I was told that it doesn't spoil if kept in the ref. Thanks for this recipe .
I e done the exact some thing. Only use it for chicken wings and didn’t know how to use the remaining. Sit it the fridge too long thinking it’s spoiled so I threw it away. Only use 4 cubes for chicken wings haha
I brown in butter, brown, then braise. Cover with water and simmer, covered, for an hour to hour and a half depending on thickness. Add water as needed. Uncover the last 10 minutes. Pour juice over chops. Chops can be cut with a fork and will melt in your mouth. Easy.
I just found your channel my friend. I have a question I hope you can help me. I have a cheap cut of beef very tough. An I do the same with the baking soda too? If we use the baking soda in moderation do we still need to rince the meat? Instead of adding the baking soda to the water could I just add the baking soda directly to the meat instead of wasting the water?
@@CookingAhPa what will happen if you place directly on the meat? Will something not good happen to the meat? Thank you for your answers and my name is Karen from New Jersey USA
@@CookingAhPa also I noticed alot of youtube chefs put baking soda directly on meat. Do you know why they do this if it is not so good? Again thank you for helping me learn. I am going to listen to your advisory because I am thinking this may be best way.
@@CookingAhPa funny smells from the baking soda.. Aahh I see... so then the attempt of using water is to use this as a protection from bad smells or tastes.... I suppose it would also act as a rinse to prevent baking soda directly on meat... does this mean even if your place baking soda directly on meat and then rince very well later on, it will still not be good? Have you tried this? I don't want to waste food so I will learn from you. Food is so expensive.
First off you've obviously never been sick from food poisoning for salmonella second off you don't beat the Saran Wrap into Oblivion and third you've done nothing when you've bested a fool
@Rick Jaques I didn’t mean to upset you. And yes I have had food poisoning...never want to go there again! It wasn’t anything I made. Thank you for your wonderful comment, and have a blessed day.
i use cooking wine to tender any meat... here i saw you soak in bkg soda water,pounded w/ hammer and still add cooking wine... how tender is yr pork choped finally...???

He did not talk fast at all and I understood everything.
At the end he burps and speaks very fast...
Great technique. Thanks! May I ask how many grams are the 3 pork chops?
Approximately 400 grams
@@CookingAhPa Thank you. I will try this 2 step process. Also ratio of 1/2 tbsp baking soda per 400 grams of pork is helpful.
Ah Pa, was the bone removed after the marination process because I can't see the bone anymore when you fry the meat?
Still there

Thanks very much for sharing your video recipes. I ‘m a great fan of your channel and I always look forward to your postings. Btw where can I get rose wine?

Hi there, I tried the baking soda trick once but it gave a horrible taste to the meat. Perhaps I used too much of it, and it was not on water... do you have a similar experience ?
I.dont use baking soda, it does gv weird taste. I pay higher price for better pork chop
@@kentong9514 just lemon juice does a much better tendering job
When using baking soda, make sure to rinse it well before marinating otherwise you will get that metallic after taste in your meat.
How many cups of water is that?
keep cooking ah pa ,that will inspired us for daily cooking

There is a recommended ratio of 1 teaspoon for every 1/2 cup of water. But Ah Pa didn’t follow this, i only agak one bowl of water with about 1 tablespoon of baking soda.

Hello ah pa. Can i use oven to make this pork chop? Thanks
Can
Do you have a list of seasoning ingredients they are new to me i didnt geg the name of the red stuff
Red fermented beancurd
Red bean curb is this the right one I will try this looks yummy and render I'm getting hungry 😋🥰⭐
I use baking soda,just too little for soften the beef.
Thanks for sharing how to use baking soda as the tenderiser.
Bean curd marination - I know what is bean curd but never saw marination - can u explain please?
Thanks for the tip 😊
Welcome
Papain powder from papaya or bromelain from pineapple will help to break down the tough fibres in meat.
Fruits enzyme, yes
Baking soda is cheaper tough! ☺️
@@vister6757
Yes. Very cheap.
Yummy, will try that, my favourite Fermented Bean Curd brand is Lao Gan Ma... thanks x
Oh? I only tried the chili oil from lao gan ma before
@@CookingAhPa They have the Red one which I really like 😋
Joyce McDonald i am sure they have a wide range of products
Nice job.😊

Ah PA... Your cooking are simple n awesome... I just love it! Tq
My Grandma is a chef.. Every time she Fry pork chop, she always marinate and soak it in kiwi fruit. For a few minutes, till tender. Wash and fry.
Kiwi fruit is very expensive here in Malaysia! Baking soda is cheaper and easily available 😁
very useful the MAS airline Noritake spoon !!!!!
What spice powder do you use?
Hi Ah Pa, can deep fry pork rib using the soda powder method to “soften” so that it is more tenderness after deep frying?
It will helps too
Perfect chop....I wished you would have cut it though.......
I did not get the name of the sauce you added to the marinade. Was that soy sauce?
Yes
What temperature do you fry it?
Medium to medium high
@@CookingAhPa Thank you!
Do you need to add in oil when frying? I noticed that no oil was used
Abit of oil will do
Thanks for the video.
Nice watch ah pa

I hate comments like these. Then why don’t you start your own channel. Nobody cares about cooking tips from the comment section.

Do not apply baking soda directly to the meat, try dilute it in water then soak the beef awhile and rinse

Closed Captions are SO funny.
Baking Power or Bicarbonate of Soda?
How about if use frozen pork chop ?
Delicious pork chops 😋. Could you please write the recipe.
Yes
Covering with saran wrap prevents splattering while tenderizing..my ocd is kicking in😳
What is fermented bin curd
Fermented beancurd is one type of traditional Chinese fermentation ingredient using beancurd and red yeast rice.
My mouth is watering ,looks yummy.
Ok? Ok? Ok? Its yummy....just did it now
wow sana makatikim ako nyan
Instead of using rice wine you can use teelseed oil to dissolve bean curd learnt from Hong Kong cook. Better result.
Love this recipe!
can you add salt to the marination?
Can
Very good n yummy
What is the thing in red sauce? Bean curd?
Fermented beancurd
Nicely done and nicely presented.
What is the red sauce again

Put Saran Wrap over your meat before you pound it and spray the juice all over your countertop
@Rick Jaques Oh yeah, pound that plastic wrap into the meat. LMAO
First off you've obviously never been sick from food poisoning for salmonella second off you don't beat the Saran Wrap into Oblivion and third you've done nothing when you've bested a fool
@Rick Jaques I didn’t mean to upset you. And yes I have had food poisoning...never want to go there again! It wasn’t anything I made. Thank you for your wonderful comment, and have a blessed day.
No I apologize ,my comment was mean and hateful , i hope you have a wonderfull day and again iamm sorry for my comment
@Rick Jaques No need to apologize, but thank you!
Turn the chop over and the bone will be on the right and the meat on the left. Makes you wonder which is the pork chop. 😄😄😄
Have you eaten montery pork chop can you teach me the same taste?
i use cooking wine to tender any meat...
here i saw you soak in bkg soda water,pounded w/ hammer and still add cooking wine... how tender is yr pork choped finally...???
The pork chop is definitely become more tender
Pork juice everywhere, if you don't use plastic wrap. Otherwise, good video.
Basin of water plus baking soda result no taste of pork meat just the taste of the ingredients added. I like pork chops but not with baking soda
Yes,when you put baking soda, it lessen the taste of the meat
Thank you
Welcome
Yummy cookingvah ah pa
Did he burp!!!🤭 at the end .Well I think its because the pork chop 🥩 came out delicious 😋
Oops, my apologies
Could you write down the ingredients for I cannot catch up every you said
