Ingredients

  • 400 gram Pork Chops Dry-aged for 15 days
  • Ghee For the frying. Can be replaced with butter and oil
  • Salt Such a good piece of meat deserves a good flake salt - e.g. Maldon
  • Pepper

Instructions

  • The meat looked like this when we received it. 400 grams of pork may not sound like much for 2 people, but it was definitely enough for us. 
  • The flavor is more intense after a dry-aging process, so you don't eat as much as you "normally" would.

  • The meat was removed from the package and the skin was trimmed off. It was seasoned with some salt and pepper and vacuum-packed.
  • It was then cooked at 57 degrees Celsius (135 degrees Fahrenheit) for 2 hours in our sous vide/water bath.
  • After the bath, the meat was dried very well using a kitchen towel.
  • The meat was seared for 10-15 seconds on each side in a smoking hot pan with ghee.
