Description

Poon’s wind-dried Chinese bacon has a deep complex flavour. Cured in soya sauce, Chinese wine and a blend of spices, then air-dried, the natural extraction of water in the drying process produces an intense and concentrated delicacy. Wind-dried bacon can be simply steamed on Jasmine rice, as in a classic claypot rice with wind-dried meats or used in a variety of stir-fry dishes such as green beans or potato slivers. It should be steamed before stir-frying.

About Poon's London

Slough, United Kingdom

My father started in the kitchen young. In Hong Kong, he trained with a Swiss pâtissier and in the mid-Sixties he came to England in pursuit of my mother. Three years later they opened the iconic Poon’s of Covent Garden at 41 King Street (now a Burberry store.) The great and the good dined there – from Mick Jagger to Barbara Streisand. In 1980 my father was awarded a Michelin Star. Restaurants in Geneva and The City followed.

My parents retired in 2006. I have worked in all my parents’ restaurants and swore I would never go into the business, but what chance does one stand against kismet? So, I bring you my Chinese kitchen from the depths of my heart & my family’s hearth.
