Ingredients

Servings:4
  • 2 lbs Pork belly (whole slab)
  • 10 cups Water
  • 2 tbsp Doenjang (Korean soybean paste)
  • 8 pieces Garlic cloves, smashed
  • 1 inch Ginger, sliced
  • 1 piece Large onion, halved
  • 3 pieces Green onions, white parts
  • 1 tsp Black peppercorns
  • 1 tsp Instant coffee powder(optional)
  • 12 pieces Napa cabbage leaves, blanched or salted
  • 1/2 cup Ssamjang (dipping sauce)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the pork belly in cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    In a large pot, combine water, doenjang, garlic, ginger, onion, green onions, peppercorns, and coffee powder.

  3. 3

    Bring the liquid to a boil over high heat, then carefully add the pork belly slab.

  4. 4

    Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 45 to 50 minutes until the pork is tender but not falling apart.

  5. 5

    Turn off the heat and let the pork sit in the hot liquid for 10 minutes to retain juiciness.

  6. 6

    Remove the pork from the pot and slice into thin, bite-sized pieces (about 1/4 inch thick).

  7. 7

    Arrange the sliced pork on a platter alongside the cabbage leaves, radish kimchi, and ssamjang.

    To eat, place a slice of pork on a cabbage leaf, top with kimchi and sauce, then wrap and enjoy.
