my mom would usually boil leftover lechon in a little water with salt, pepper, crushed garlic and liquid seasoning/soy sauce. when the water evaporates she adds a little oil enough to fry them to a crisp. but the hands down favorite in our household is to grill leftover lechon over charcoal… the meat pieces could be seasoned as desired.

joev, I like kosher salt because of its consistency, pure saltiness and lack of added iodine. I find a lot of local salts have iodine (a government requirement) that mars the flavor of some dishes. You can buy kosher salt in some groceries. Local sea salt is good as well, just buy it without iodine. You may want to try the store “ritual” which I just recently wrote about, for good local salts… I use kosher salt whenever I cook. Other specialty salts just to top or finish off dishes…

Hi MM,

Just stared reading you blog a couple of weeks, and i must say your articles are really fun to read.

I’ve notice you use kosher salt on meats.
Whats the different between kosher salt to a regular salt and sea salt?

Is kosher best with pork or with other like steak?

Are they available on any supermarket?

Guh, I hate this post. Especially knowing I still have a kilo of frozen Zubuchon in the fridge…

Must hide weighing scale.

What I do with leftover lechon is I sprinkle it with patis and keep it in the chiller. When it’s time to cook, I thaw the meat and shred it, then fry until crisp. I also do the same with left over adobo. Voila, instant adobo flakes.

@ eej: What a funny coincidence! My 4-year old boy loves Pork Sung too and he grins from ear to ear whenever he says he eats monkey armpit hair.
