Picked me up a nice piece of pork.
Trimmed most of the fat and rendered it down. Sliced the flesh, salted and peppered it and left that in the fridge for 2 hours. Chopped shiitake mushrooms, 红枣 (hóng zǎo) aka jujubes and black garlic.
Fried the pork in olive oil. Fried the mushroom mix in the pork fat (now lard). Flamed the pork with some nice Armangac. Rested the meat while pouring and scraping the cooking juices and bits into the mushrooms. Served with simple boiled potatoes and greenery which I didn't bother to photograph. You know what they look like.
Put into mouth.
Armangac and Jujubes
