Method

Broth Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Broth

    Place the pork bones in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes, then drain and rinse the bones to remove any impurities.

  2. 2

    Simmer the Broth

    Return the bones to the pot with 3 liters of fresh water. Add garlic, ginger, soy sauce, mirin, salt, and chili oil. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for at least 12 hours, skimming off any impurities that rise to the top.

Chashu Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Chashu

    Roll the pork belly tightly and tie it with kitchen twine. In a separate pot, combine soy sauce, mirin, and a little water. Add the pork belly and simmer on low heat for about 2 hours until tender. Allow to cool in the liquid, then slice.

Noodles and Assembly
