  • Simmer for 5 more minutes, taste and adjust any of the seasonings if you’d like, then serve.

Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:

Thai pickled garlic is a unique ingredient and can be found in Thai grocery stores or on the Internet. It’s pickled while young and firm and provides an earthy acidity that cuts through the richness of the pork belly.
