Recipe

In a bowl, mix vinegar and sugar in a 1:1 ratio and stir thoroughly until the sugar is completely dissolved and no granules remain. (Add light mustard to taste if you prefer a spicy kick.)
Cut the green onion in half lengthwise, then slice thinly. Alternatively, use pre-sliced green onion and cut into bite-sized pieces with scissors or a knife.
Mash whole garlic with the side of a knife, then coarsely chop it to retain a slight chewiness.
Arrange the store-bought sliced pork in a circular pattern around the edge of a wide serving plate, leaving a central space open.
Pile the prepared green onion slices high in the center of the plate.
Sprinkle the mashed garlic generously on top of the green onion pile, then evenly pour the prepared vinegar-sugar sauce over the garlic, green onion, and pork to finish.

Mix vinegar and sugar in a 1:1 ratio to make the cold salad sauce, and prepare the green onion by slicing it.
Place the sliced pork in a circle on a plate, then mound the green onion and minced garlic in the center.
Evenly drizzle the prepared sauce over everything for a quick and easy finish.

Cooking tips

Since sugar doesn’t dissolve easily in vinegar, mix it beforehand to save time during cooking.
You can substitute green onion with thinly sliced onion that has been soaked in cold water to reduce its sharpness.
If your sliced pork is lightly seasoned, add just a touch of soy sauce to the dressing to balance the flavor.
Replace sliced pork with boiled chicken breast, roasted chicken thigh, braised beef or pork, or canned squid for equally delicious variations.
For a deeper, spicier flavor, mix homemade chili oil—made by sautéing green onions in oil and combining with chili powder in a 1:1 ratio—and drizzle a small amount on top before serving.
