Pork Belly Simmered with Ume Jam and Honey instructions
- Remove the seeds from the chili pepper and thinly slice the ginger. Hard boil the eggs and peel them..
- Cut the pork in chunks and boil in plenty of water. Rinse the pork and pat dry with paper towels. Brown the pork well in a frying pan and get rid of the excess fat..
- Put everything, except for the honey in a heavy pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Turn down the heat to low and simmer for about an hour. Add the boiled eggs halfway through and spoon the sauce over it occasionally..
- If the sauce starts to dry up, add a bit of sake or water. Add in the honey just before it's done. Taste and adjust. Garnish with julienned white part of leeks..
- I used "Ripe Ume Jam"Tart and fresh ume taste good in the summertime. This might be good with yuzu jam, too!.
