Steps to make A Bento Featuring Shinshuu Miso Simmered Pork Belly:
  1. Put the block of pork belly and sliced (5 mm) ginger into a pressure cooker. Add enough water to cover the pork and 1/2 cup (100 ml) of sake.
  2. Lock the lid on the pressure cooker and turn the heat on to high. When it's reached pressure, turn the heat down to low and cook for 15 minutes. Turn the heat off and leave to rest for 5 minutes.
  3. After 5 minutes, press down the pressure valve to release steam and remove the lid. Throw away the boiling liquid, and rinse the pork in lukewarm water. Cut into bite sized pieces. Wash the pressure cooker, too.
  4. Put the cubed pork and the ☆ ingredients into the pressure cooker, and lock the lid again.
  5. Turn the heat on to high. When it's reached pressure, turn the heat down to low and cook for 5 minutes. Turn the heat off and leave to rest for 5 minutes. Press the valve to release steam, and remove the lid.

  8. The bento also has : Onigiri rice balls wrapped in nozawana (pickled green leaves), cucumbers wrapped in salted squid, shimeji mushrooms and broccoli mixed with umeboshi plum and shiro-dashi sauce, and sauteed kabocha squash.

But the extended time that this Japanese-style braised pork belly is simmered with ginger and scallions reduces the fat in the finished dish. A small piece is also a wonderful addition the next day in a Japanese bento lunch. If you love pork, you must try this kakuni (角煮, simmered pork belly).
