Meal Sharing: Caramelized Braised Pork Belly

• Time for another one of my Vietnamese Americana Thursday Mealshares!

I never really appreciated the food I grew up with until, like an overzealous but ultimately dimwitted bird, I spread my wings and flew the coup. Rather, I flapped my wings hard enough that I just toppled over and down to the cold world below... Oh how naïve I was.

For this meal I'll be cooking my mom's recipe for Thit Kho, which is caramelized braised pork belly and eggs served on a bed of steamed rice. Although it's more obscure than the popular Vietnamese dishes you might see on a menu, this dish is no less filled with the rich flavors that exemplify Vietnamese cuisine. Sweet, savory, tangy and DElicious.

Also, I'm feeling some pineapple themed appetizers and cocktails. Win-win right? Tasty and refreshing. BRING IT SUMMER.
