Recipe

Pan-sear the pork belly over medium-high heat until golden and crispy.
Slice the onion thinly, trim tough stems from the perilla sprouts, then cut into bite-sized pieces. Wash thoroughly and pat dry to remove excess moisture.
In a bowl, mix soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar in a 1:1:1 ratio. Stir well to make the dressing, then add crushed sesame seeds for extra richness.
Evenly lay the prepared perilla sprouts and sliced onions on a serving plate.
Place the seared pork belly generously on top of the vegetables, then evenly drizzle with the universal soy sauce dressing to finish.

Pan-sear the pork belly until golden.
Slice the onion and cut the perilla sprouts into bite-sized pieces.
Mix soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar in a 1:1:1 ratio, crush sesame seeds, and add to the dressing.
Layer the vegetables and pork belly on the plate, then drizzle with the dressing to complete.

Cooking tips

You can substitute pork belly with brisket or thinly sliced boneless pork shoulder for equally delicious results.
Crush the sesame seeds lightly between your fingers before adding them—this intensifies their nutty aroma.
Wrap the perilla sprouts and onion around the pork belly and eat them together for a satisfying crunch and aromatic burst in every bite.
