BRAISED PORK SHOULDER



Braised Pork Shoulder image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons coriander seeds, toasted
2 tablespoons cumin seeds, toasted
One 4-pound boneless pork picnic shoulder, sliced in half along the grain
Kosher salt
Extra-virgin olive oil
1 fennel bulb, sliced
1 large onion, sliced
Pinch crushed red pepper
4 cloves garlic, smashed and finely chopped
2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
2 cups dry white wine
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
3 bay leaves
1 bundle fresh thyme
3 to 4 cups chicken stock

Steps:

  • Using a spice grinder, grind the coriander and cumin seeds until they are a fine powder.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Sprinkle the pork shoulder with the ground spices and salt, then tie each piece so they cook evenly.
  • Coat a Dutch oven with olive oil and bring to a high heat. Brown the first pork on all sides. Remove the pork from the pan and reserve. Ditch the fat in the pan and give a few drops of new oil. Repeat with the second pork and remove.
  • Lower the heat to medium and toss in the fennel and onions and season them with salt and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper. Cook the onions and fennel until they are soft and very aromatic, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook 2 to 3 minutes longer.
  • Add the wine and reduce by half. Stir in the mustard and add the bay leaves and thyme. Return the pork to the Dutch oven and add stock to the pan until it comes halfway up the side of the pork. Add salt if needed. Bring the liquid to a boil, cover and put the Dutch oven in the preheated oven.
  • After 1 hour, turn the pork over and add more liquid to the pan if the liquid level has gone down. Cover and return to the oven for 1 hour.
  • Turn the pork back over and return to the oven without the lid and cook for 45 more minutes. The liquid should concentrate.
  • Remove the pan from the oven, remove the pork and reserve for 15 minutes, tented with aluminum foil. Skim any excess fat from the pan and reduce the pan juices, if needed.
  • Slice the pork and serve with onions, fennel and juices.
  • Wine Pairing Suggestion: Pinot Grigio

BRAISED PORK AND VEGGIE POCKETS

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h25m

Yield 24 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons ground mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons ground sage
1 1/2 teaspoons sweet smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1 1/2 pounds boneless pork shoulder
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 red onion, cut into sixths
1 navel orange, quartered
3 cups sweet tea
5 ounces frozen spinach, thawed
Half of a 15.5-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
5 ounces frozen corn, thawed
1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
1 cup shredded extra-sharp Cheddar
1/2 cup pickled jalapenos, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
1 scallion, chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, cut into small dice (about 1 cup)
Four 15-ounce boxes refrigerated rolled pie crusts
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 large egg, beaten

Steps:

  • For the pork: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the salt, chili powder, cumin, mustard, sage, paprika, cinnamon and cracked black pepper. Massage the pork shoulder all over with the dry rub.
  • Place a large Dutch oven over high heat. Add the oil and heat until shimmering. Put the pork shoulder in the pot and sear on all sides until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Set the pork aside.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add the red onion and orange to the pot. Cook, stirring, until the orange edges are caramelized, about 6 minutes. Put the pork back in and pour in the sweet tea. The tea should cover about two-thirds of the pork; it should not be fully submerged. Cover the pot with a lid. Oven-braise the pork, turning it over halfway through the cooking time, until fork-tender, about 2 hours.
  • For the pockets: Meanwhile, assemble the vegetable filling. Squeeze the spinach to remove all of the moisture. Use your fingers to break up the spinach as you sprinkle it into a large mixing bowl. Add the black beans, corn, pepper jack, Cheddar, pickled jalapenos, cilantro, salt, black pepper, scallion and bell pepper. Stir thoroughly to combine.
  • Remove the pork from the pot and discard the cooking liquid. Using 2 forks, shred the pork into bite-size chunks, making sure to discard any fatty pieces. Add the pork to the vegetable filling and toss to combine.
  • Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Spread 2 rounds of pie crust dough onto a surface lightly dusted with flour. Place six 1/4-cup mounds of filling onto the first round of pie dough, leaving space in between each mound. Lay the second round of dough directly on top of the mounds. Using a pizza cutter, make slices in the dough to separate each mound and form a triangular pocket.
  • Working with one triangle at a time, press the tip of a fork along the edges to seal the pocket on all 3 sides. Place the sealed pocket on one of the parchment-lined baking sheets. Continue with the remaining dough and filling. Brush the triangles with the beaten egg to ensure even browning. Bake until golden brown and crispy, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve warm.

BRAISED PORK WITH TURNIPS



Braised Pork With Turnips image

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, project, main course

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon neutral oil, like canola
1 tablespoon butter (or another tablespoon of oil)
1 1/2 pounds boneless pork (shoulder or loin), trimmed of excess fat and cut into 1- to 1 1/2-inch chunks
1 1/2 pounds purple-top turnips or rutabagas, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
3/4 cup white wine, chicken stock or water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons minced fresh lovage, celery leaves or parsley

Steps:

  • Place a 12-inch skillet, preferably nonstick, over medium-high heat, and heat at least a minute. Add the oil and butter. When the butter foam subsides or the oil is hot, add the pork a few chunks at a time. When it is all in the skillet, turn the heat to high. Cook about 5 minutes, undisturbed, until the pork is nicely browned on one side. Turn each piece, return the heat to medium-high and cook about 3 minutes more.
  • Add the turnip chunks, and shake the skillet so that the pork and turnips are all sitting in one layer, or nearly so. Cook another 3 or 4 minutes, or until turnips begin to brown. Add the liquid, and stir once or twice. Add salt, pepper and half the herb, turn heat to medium-low and cover skillet.
  • Cook, stirring every 10 minutes, until both pork and turnips are quite tender, about 30 minutes. Remove the cover, and raise the heat to medium-high; boil the liquid until it is reduced to a syrupy glaze. Taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary; then, garnish with the remaining herb and serve.

SOY-BRAISED VEGETABLE JJIM (KOREAN VEGETABLE STEW)



Soy-Braised Vegetable Jjim (Korean Vegetable Stew) image

Inspired by Korean kalbi jjim (braised short ribs), this satisfying vegetarian one-pot meal features cremini mushrooms alongside hearty potatoes, squash, carrots and Korean radishes. The vegetables braise and release sweet juices into the pot, creating a deep, savory sauce infused with fragrant garlic and ginger. Since this stew is all about the vegetables, treat them well by cooking it in the oven. It's gentler on the vegetables, which have a tendency to fall apart when cooked over direct, aggressive heat. Vibrant orange kabocha squash has a rich, firm flesh, but lighter butternut squash is a good alternative. Leftovers can be transformed into a versatile tasty ragù: Simply chop the vegetables, simmer with crushed tomatoes and finish with grated Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Provided by Kay Chun

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons neutral oil, such as safflower or canola
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, trimmed and halved or quartered if large
Kosher salt and black pepper
3 scallions, finely chopped, plus more for garnish
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons minced fresh peeled ginger
3/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons turbinado sugar or 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 pound Korean radish, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 pound kabocha squash, peeled, seeded and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
8 ounces large carrots, peeled and sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
Steamed rice, for serving
Kimchi and toasted sesame oil, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a large Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high. Add mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften, about 3 minutes. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil, scallions, garlic and ginger, stirring constantly until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add soy sauce, sugar, potatoes, radish, 1 teaspoon black pepper and 1 cup of water, and mix well. Bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Cover and bake for 15 minutes, then stir in squash and carrots until well incorporated. Cover and bake until all the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes longer.
  • Gently stir to evenly coat the vegetables in the sauce. Divide the stew in bowls and garnish with scallions. Serve with rice and kimchi, and drizzle with sesame oil, if using.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder or pork butt are ideal for stews as they have a good amount of fat that will render down and keep the meat moist and tender.
  • Brown the pork before stewing: Browning the pork adds flavor and helps to develop a rich, dark sauce.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will give your stew a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include carrots, potatoes, celery, onions, and parsnips.
  • Add some herbs and spices: This will help to enhance the flavor of the stew. Some good options include garlic, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves.
  • Simmer the stew until the meat is tender: This can take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours, depending on the cut of pork you are using.
  • Serve the stew over rice or mashed potatoes: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Braised pork and vegetable stew is a hearty, flavorful, and satisfying dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover pork. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make a delicious and nutritious stew that your family and friends will love.
