Chef's Notes
Treat this humble spread with the dignity of a royal banquet; the slow simmer is where the magic happens, so do not rush the reduction.
Pro Tip
For an exceptionally smooth texture, shred the warm pork with two forks before giving it a final blitz with your potato masher.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Leaving the pot unattended during the boil will inevitably lead to a scorched bottom, a billowing cloud of cinnamon smoke, and an unholy mess on your stovetop.

Meat Moisture Retention Protocol
Storage Science
Store in an airtight container in the coldest part of the refrigerator along with any cooking juices or sauces to maintain moisture. Consume within 3-4 days.
Reheating Science
Reheat gently in the oven at 300°F (150°C) or on the stovetop over low heat. Add a splash of broth or water and cover tightly to steam. This prevents the proteins from constricting and squeezing out their juices.
