## Tips

- Mixing the marinade separately allows you to adjust the taste before adding the pork.
- Marinating for 1 hour is sufficient for home cooking, but overnight yields better results.
- In a professional kitchen, the pork is baked in the oven with a container of water underneath to retain moisture.
- Serve with fresh cucumber slices.
