Traditional Taiwanese Braised Pork Hock
  1. In a pot, add in pork hock and fill the pot with water. Turn the heat up to medium-high and once it starts simmering, let it boil for 5-8 minutes or until the water is no longer red. Drain the pork and scrub clean with cold water.

  2. In the Instant Pot, add in pork, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, star anise, garlic, cinnamon stick, ginger, green onion, Chinese cooking wine, brown sugar, and water. Put the lid on to pressure cook for 45 minutes. If you like it extra soft, let it natural release instead.

  3. In the meantime, prepare the side you want to eat the braised pork hock with, whether rice or noodles. Enjoy!
