Sung Si-kyung's Pork Belly Kimchi Jjim

Cooking tips 💡

• Use well-fermented, tangy sour kimchi or fully aged kimchi rather than freshly made kimchi to achieve the deep, refreshing flavor characteristic of kimchi jjim.
• You can simply put all the meat and kimchi in the pot without rolling, but rolling helps the seasoning penetrate the meat better and looks more thoughtful when serving.
• Since this uses a whole pork belly style, simmer for at least 45 minutes, or over an hour on low heat if time allows, so the meat becomes tender and not dry.
