Slow-Roasted Pork Belly

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 450u00b0. Liberally sprinkle pork all over with salt.

2. 2

   Put pork in a large roasting pan (crowding is okay). Coat all over with toasted sesame oil, then with hot pepper oil.

3. 3

   Roast for about 20 minutes. Then reduce to 350u00b0 and roast 2 to 2 1/2 hours, periodically pouring off fat (have a heatproof bowl handy for this), until pork belly is crisp on top but still juicy within.

4. 4

   Serve the strips on a large wooden cutting board. Chop a couple of them into bite-size pieces to convey the idea, and serve with a knife so everyone can cut their own chunks.

5. 5

   *Whole Foods Market sells pork belly already cut into strips.

6. 6

   Make ahead: Up to 3 days, reheated at 350u00b0 for 15 minutes.
