Ingredients
Instructions
Prep the pork stomach
Slice the cooked pork stomach into thin strips about ¼‑inch wide. If the pieces are thick, trim them for a more tender bite.
Blanch the slices
Bring a small pot of water to a boil, add the pork strips and cook for 1–2 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking and keep the texture firm.
Prepare the onion and garlic
Peel the onion, cut it in half, then slice each half into thin half‑rings. Finely mince the garlic cloves.
Mix the dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Add chili oil if you like a hint of heat.
Toss and serve
Combine the pork stomach, onion, and garlic in a mixing bowl. Pour the dressing over, toss well to coat, then transfer to a serving plate. Chill for 5 minutes before serving for best flavor.
