Instructions

  1. 1 Pat halibut dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of fillet with salt. Scatter the ginger over the top of the fish and place onto a heatproof ceramic dish.
  2. 2 Place into a bamboo steamer set over several inches of gently boiling water, and cover. Gently steam for 10 to 12 minutes.
  3. 3 Pour accumulated water out of the dish and sprinkle the fillet with green onion. Drizzle both soy sauces over the surface of the fish.
  4. 4 Heat peanut and sesame oils in a small skillet over medium-high heat until they begin to smoke. When the oil is hot, carefully pour on top of the halibut fillet. The very hot oil will cause the green onions and water on top of the fish to pop and spatter all over; be careful. Garnish with cilantro sprigs and serve immediately.

Instructions

  1. 1 Place soy sauce, honey, rice wine, hoisin sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, garlic, five-spice powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and curing salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil on high heat; reduce heat to medium-high. Cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat. Cool to room temperature.
  2. 2 Cut pork in half lengthwise. Cut each half again lengthwise forming 4 long, thick pieces of pork.
  3. 3 Transfer cooled sauce to a large mixing bowl. Stir in red food coloring. Place pork sections into sauce and coat each piece. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 4 to 12 hours.
  4. 4 Preheat grill for medium heat, 275 to 300 degrees F (135 to 150 degrees C) and lightly oil the grate. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  5. 5 Remove sections of pork from marinade and let excess drip off. Place on prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with kosher salt to taste.
  6. 6 Transfer pork sections to grate over indirect heat on the prepared grill. Cover and cook for about 45 minutes. Brush with marinade; turn. Continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 1 hour and 15 minutes more. Do not use any more marinade on cooked meat until after you boil it.
  7. 7 Place leftover marinade in a saucepan; bring to a boil; let simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat. Now you can use it to brush over the cooked pork.

Instructions

  1. 1 Combine flour, water, and ½ teaspoon salt in a bowl; mix with a wooden spoon until dough comes together in a sticky ball. Sprinkle in more flour as needed and knead by hand until soft and supple. Wrap in plastic wrap; rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
  2. 2 Combine ground pork, green onions, chives, garlic, and ginger in a bowl. Season with 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 4 teaspoons salt, 2 teaspoons gochugaru, sesame oil, and black pepper; mix using two forks until just combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap; refrigerate until ready to use.
  3. 3 Whisk vinegar, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon gochugaru into chicken broth in a bowl; set aside.
  4. 4 Divide dough into 4 pieces. Roll 1 piece into a rope about the thickness of your thumb; flatten into a long, thin band about 3 inches wide using a rolling pin, flouring only as needed. Dust top with flour; flip over. Dip your fingers in some water and lightly brush the surface until slightly sticky.
  5. 5 Arrange about ¼ pork filling down middle of dough about the thickness of your thumb using moistened fingers. Fold entire length of dough over pork filling, pressing down to seal dough. Trim excess dough if desired. Dust a little more flour on top; flip over so seam side is on the bottom. Divide into 16 pieces using the edge of your hand; cut with a bench scraper. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
  6. 6 Heat oil in a pan over high heat. Cook dumplings, in batches, seam-sides up, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Add a portion of broth; bring to a boil. Cover and continue to boil until pork is no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Serve dumplings in broth in bowls.
