Japanese Night - Buta no Kakuni

Japanese night was a long time coming. I love so many dishes in this region that it was very difficult to choose an appetizer and dessert (indeed, we made 3 dessert items). Rob handled the entree like a pro, and overall, the night was a big success. Next week: Spanish!

Cubed pork belly seared with ginger, soy, sugar, and sake, then simmered for an hour until tender. Served over ramen noodles with the broth ladled over everything.
