📝 Preparation Steps
1
Prepare cabbage
2
Cut the bottom stem of the napa cabbage, so you are left with cabbage leaves. Soak cabbage leaves in salt, vinegar and water. Make sure every leaf is salted so we can squeeze out the mixture.

Remember to flip the napa cabbage every ⏱️ 30 minutes or so until the cabbage has wilted. Once wilted, squeeze out the excess water and set aside in the refrigerator until you make the pork belly wraps.

In a large pot, add onion, green onions, garlic cloves, slices of ginger, black peppercorns, soy sauce, water**, bay leaves, sugar, instant coffee, soybean paste, and soju. Make sure the pot is not too big because we want to ensure enough liquid covers the pork belly.
