Instructions
Pickle the vegetables
- In a small pot, bring the white vinegar, unseasoned rice vinegar, sugar and 1 tsp of kosher salt to a slight boil.
- Remove the pot from heat once it begins to boil and pour the mixture over the daikon and carrots.
- Allow it to cool to room temp and then place in refrigerator.
Prepare Crema
- Combine the sour cream, the Serious Foodie Indonesian Sambal and 1/4 tsp of kosher salt in food processor or use a hand blender and blend to a smooth consistency. Store in fridge until ready to serve.
Prep Pork Chops
- Pat down the pork chops with a paper towel to dry them. Use 3 tbsp of the Serious Foodie Filipino Grill Rub and massage onto the pork chops to fully coat.
- Wrap tightly in plastic wrap, then place in fridge for at least 2 hours, and up to 12 hours.
- Remove pork chops from fridge about 1 hour before grilling to bring to room temperature.
- Before placing on the grill, season chops to taste with salt and pepper.
- Grill for approximately four minutes per side. Grilling time will vary depending on the thickness of the pork chop. To ensure that the pork chops retain their juices, allow them to rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Assembly
