Ask any Vietnamese child what food mom makes most often for them at home … the inevitable answer will be thịt kho trứng. This dish is also a classic entree’ during the family celebration of the Vietnamese Lunar New Year.

Thịt kho trứng is a basic home-cooked meal featuring “thịt heo” (pork belly in this case) and “trứng” (a hard-boiled egg) simmered in a delectable caramelized sauce and served over rice. I’ll be using the traditional duck eggs here. This dish will be served up with fresh Vietnamese herbs and vegetables (some of which  I’ll be pickling myself.)

ALLERGENS: Ingredients in this meal that might concern some are: Wheat (in the fish sauce), Fish Sauce, Egg. If you have any allegy concerns or questions, please let us know in the comment section of your order (or by email).
