Street food festivals have taken the country by storm and with food truck fare becoming increasingly more exciting there isn't a better way to go on a culinary trip around the world without leaving your local park. As we inch ever-closer to summer's swan song, Maggie Cubbler gives us one of her favourite food truck & beer pairing matches: Gua Bao with Poperings Hommelbier.
Gua Bao
Truck name:Made in TaiwanMain ingredients:Pork, pickled greens, corianderIn other words:Pork belly in steamed bun
A version of gua bao.
Savoury and salty five-spice pork belly is braised in rice wine and soy sauce, sliced thin then stuffed in a steamed, fluffy bun. A true Taiwanese gua bao is served with pickled mustard greens and fresh coriander to cut the richness and then dusted with peanut powder. A bit messy, a LOT delicious.
A bright, citrus fruit character makes for an interesting contrast with the spiced meat. This Belgian ale's caramel maltiness picks up the sweetness from the braise while a grassy bitterness and dry finish cut the pork belly's fattiness.
We have some important and exciting news from our Managing Director, Matt Lane:
Over the last few months, we’ve spent a lot of time speaking to members of our PerfectDraft community about loyalty & rewards.
Something we’re really passionate about is rewarding our most loyal customers and you’ve given us some great feedback and ideas on how we can do this.
We’re now excited to announce the launch of our ‘Spring Rewards’ program.
During pregnancy, it is recommended to a pregnant woman not to eat any raw or semi-cooked food such as meat, fish, cold meats and certain types of cheese. And above all, smoking and drinking alcohol should be stopped.
In recent years, alcohol-free beer has become a real trend in the beer market here in the UK. More and more big beer brands and small craft breweries are starting to brew it to the delight of non-alcoholic drinkers. However, there are many questions about this kind of beer.
We’re back for the second edition of ‘Must Try Kegs’. Last week we spotlighted three fantastic kegs from our MultiTRY range and this week is no different. From a personal favourite lager of mine, to a couple of flavour sensations, take a read through why we think you have to try these three.
