In the ancient land of China, there is a historical story hidden behind every dish. Pineapple with pork, this sweet, sour and colourful dish is no exception. According to legend, this dish originated in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, when foreign trade in the Guangdong region flourished, and many foreign merchants frequented it. In order to cater to the taste of foreigners, Guangdong chefs have created this pineapple cucumber pork that combines Chinese and Western flavors.
