Okinawa Soba with Rafute:
It’s a simple comfort food from Okinawa, Japan (where my family is from).

Rafute (pork belly simmered in shoyu, awamori, and kurozato)

doesn’t look like much but takes at least six hours.
 
Coffee Jelly
Classic Kissaten treat. Some people hate my version since it’s a bit old fashioned. The trend these days is to use powdered gelatin for the sake of texture. I prefer using stick kanten which gives it a slightly less jello texture. Also easy to make vegan if need be since the thickener is derived from seaweed. Definitely more 80’s style flavor.

Awesome! Great to see Okinawa being represented 🤙. Do you celebrate obon too? Would love to see what you put out.
