vellocet Posted December 20, 2016 at 11:51 AM Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 at 11:51 AM What's the meaning of 五花肉 in English? Is it pork belly, uncured bacon? I'm not very sure, Pleco's definition doesn't make much sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest realmayo Posted December 20, 2016 at 01:42 PM Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 at 01:42 PM The best pork belly will have distinct, thin layers of skin, then fat, meat, fat, meat, fat, and then meat. That last layer of meat is usually trimmed off and used for something else because it is not that tender, so you are left with five layers under the skin, which is why the Chinese call this cut wŭhuāròu 五花肉, or five-patterned meat. http://carolynjphillips.blogspot.co.uk/2013_08_01_archive.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
