When living in Brooklyn and visiting my in laws on Saturday, they would always buy some cha shao, the Chinese pork roast. My daughter especially is crazy for it.

But now I just make my own, no Chinese food around. My husband declared it’s much better then any roast you buy in China town in Brooklyn  🙌 also here I switched for Italian salumi to Spanish ones, we have a wonderful store where to buy Spanish products. Here is a very good sopresada, similar name  to Italian soppressata but very different, it’s like a spreadable chorizo, so good on grilled bread. And I am on a special protein diet for 2 more weeks, so I had just a mixed salad with chicken. Very tough to resist the pork, I had a couple slices though
