Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and black pepper. Whisk until sugar is dissolved.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Beef

    Place the beef belly in a large ziplock bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the beef, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.

  3. 3

    Cook the Beef

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the beef from the marinade (discard marinade) and grill or sear for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, let the beef rest for 5 minutes. Slice against the grain, garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds, and serve hot.
