It was too sweet for my taste. Would have love some spice on it

Nice texture but flavor missing that oomph

Felt made from scratch with real spices, but the flavor profile wasn't for me. Was missing something earthy and that umami punch.

Bakkwa: The Future (of Chinese Pork Jerky)

In observance of Lunar New Year, I ordered the pork jerky from Sam Tan's Kitchen. I had been a previous customer and enjoyed Ms. Tan's wares very much in the past, so I looked forward to her spin on this meat product - and I was not disappointed. I sliced the jerky into strips, then followed her instructions and zapped the jerky in the microwave for a few seconds before eating. The spice was a perfect sweet/savory combination, exactly what I expected, and the chew was much more tender than I thought it would be. I didn't think jerky could legitimately be described as "succulent" ... but here we are! Excellent five-star work by Sam Tan's Kitchen once again!
