    Cook Saimin Noodles

    In a pot of boiling water, cook the saimin noodles according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 3-4 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare Pork

    In a separate pot, bring water to a boil. Add the pork belly and cook for about 20-25 minutes until tender. Remove and let cool before slicing into thin pieces.

    Prepare Broth

    In a large pot, combine the chicken broth, soy sauce, mirin, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
