What is Vietnamese Crispy Fried Pork Skin and its connection to Com Com?
Da Heo Chien Gion isn’t just a snack; it’s a celebration of resourcefulness and flavor. Traditionally, pork skin, often a byproduct, is transformed into a delectable treat. At Com Com, we honor this tradition, sourcing high-quality pork skin and preparing it with the same care and attention to detail as our grandmothers did. We believe in minimizing waste and maximizing flavor, resulting in a dish that’s both delicious and respectful of culinary heritage. Our Da Heo Chien Gion complements our other dishes perfectly, offering a crunchy counterpoint to the rich broths of our Pho or the fresh herbs of our Bun Cha.

What ingredients and tools are essential for perfect Da Heo Chien Gion at home?
While we highly recommend experiencing the authentic Da Heo Chien Gion at Com Com Restaurant, we understand the desire to recreate this magic at home. To achieve that perfect crispiness, you’ll need: fresh pork skin (ask your butcher for skin with a good layer of fat), salt, white vinegar, a large pot for boiling, and a deep fryer or wok. Don’t forget paper towels for draining and your favorite dipping sauce – fish sauce with chili and lime is a classic choice.

How can I elevate my Da Heo Chien Gion experience?
At Com Com, we offer various dipping sauces to enhance the flavor of our Da Heo Chien Gion.

You can also sprinkle some fresh herbs like cilantro or mint over the pork skin for an added layer of freshness.
What are the nutritional benefits of Da Heo Chien Gion?
While Da Heo Chien Gion is undoubtedly a treat, it’s worth noting that pork skin is a good source of collagen, a protein that supports skin health and joint function. However, moderation is key, as it’s also high in fat. At Com Com, we strive to use the highest quality ingredients and cooking methods to provide a balanced and flavorful experience.
