Actual Taste

Onions are soft and tender even after just a quick spin! Combined with the juices from the pork, it makes a delicious side dish that is both tender and melty! If you overcook it, the pork tends to burn (I burned some myself), so it is recommended to keep it warm and see how it turns out. You can enjoy it as is without seasoning, thanks to the flavor of the pork and the sweetness of the onions. In addition to ponzu (Japanese citrus juice), this dish goes well with soy sauce, yuzu pepper, ume paste, and many other condiments! Try to find your favorite combination.
