About

This is a quick and easy tonkotsu ramen featuring pork belly is inspired by the famous Momofuku recipe which takes 2 days to prepare (see the full recipe here).

Does the pork belly come already cooked?  I don't see any mention of cooking it.

Hi Perry,
Yes, we use pre-cooked pork belly. We find it in our local Asian market, but have found it at many BBQ and independent butcher shops.
