This Man's Cook's Sikhye Braised Pork Belly
Using sikhye instead of sugar to maximize sweetness and umami, this simple recipe delivers the rich flavor of charcoal-grilled pork ribs.

Recipe
Cooking tips
- The maltose content in sikhye provides a luxurious sweetness and smoky barbecue-like flavor, replacing sugar or corn syrup.
- Wipe away all excess fat during cooking to ensure the sauce adheres evenly and doesn’t separate.
- You can use any leftover pork cuts such as loin, shoulder, or front leg—any frozen pork belly will work just as well.
- While reducing the sauce, continuously stir over high heat to evaporate all moisture without burning, which intensifies the flavor.
Recommended for
- Those who want to enjoy a special soy-based braised pork belly instead of regular grilled pork belly.
- Home cooks looking to make a charcoal-grilled pork flavor dish quickly and easily.
- People wanting to use up leftover frozen pork scraps in a delicious way.
