Jushi

Method

1. 1 Boil the pork belly, then dice it, reserving the broth.
2. 2 Soak the shiitake mushrooms until they expand, then chop them finely, reserving the soaking water for cooking the rice.
3. 3 Slice the burdock root into strips, soak in water to remove the bitterness, then drain well.
4. 4 Sauté the meat and vegetables with soy sauce until flavorful, then mix them into the washed rice.
5. 5 Cook the rice using broth from the meat stock mixed with dashi and mushroom soaking water, let it steep for 10 minutes, then fluff it up and sprinkle with chives.
