Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Kakuni

    In a pot, combine kakuni pork belly with soy sauce, mirin, sake, and dashi stock. Simmer for about 2 hours until tender. Remove from pot and let cool, then slice into bite-sized pieces.

    In a saucepan, combine the dashi stock with additional soy sauce and chili oil. Bring to a simmer and let cook for 10 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  3. 3

    Cook the Noodles

    Boil water in a large pot and cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Toppings

    Slice the soft-boiled eggs in half, chop the scallions, and prepare the endive and menma.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Tsukemen

    On a serving plate, place cooked ramen noodles, topped with kakuni pieces, menma, endive, soft-boiled egg halves, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds and scallions. Serve with a small bowl of spicy tsuyu on the side for dipping.
