What are those yummy looking little strings of sausages on the left made of / typically used for??? and the belly below... and the duck? legs... so many good looking things here!!!
The sausages are pork belly meat. They are typically used in hot pots or sliced and stir fried with vegetables. The are also often steamed on top of rice, thereby flavouring the rice. Again the steamed sausages are sliced and served with vegetables. The cured belly is cooked in the same way. Finally the duck legs (yes) are often braised then shredded. Often used in soups around here. Winter food.
It is always an interesting corner of the supermarket.
