Recommended Preparation:
For the best cooking results, we recommend following these standard professional kitchen procedures:
- Thawing: Thaw naturally in a chiller at 0–4°C.
- Initial Preparation: After thawing, wash the pig ears thoroughly, scraping off surface impurities and any hair around the base.
- Blanching: Start in cold water with ginger slices, spring onion and a splash of rice wine; bring to a boil, skim off the foam, then simmer for about 15-30 minutes until softened. Remove and drain.
- Ice Bath: Immediately after blanching, plunge the ears into ice water so they cool and contract quickly for a springier, crunchier bite.
Rich in gelatine with a crunchy bite, this product is highly versatile across classic and specialty dishes:
- Cold-Tossed Pig Ears: Cool the cooked ears and slice into fine strips; dress with garlic, chilli oil, vinegar, sesame oil and spring onion for a refreshing appetiser with a chewy crunch.

- Smoked Pig Ears: Smoke after braising for an even more distinctive flavour — a great snack with drinks.
