Today, I tried simmering 1kg of pork belly with onions for more volume in a sweet and savory sauce with soy sauce and sugar.
After simmering for nearly an hour, the wedged onions disappeared. I think they lost their shape and melted into the sauce. Also, reducing the sugar from 100g to 50g resulted in a lack of sweetness.
