Thank you for this recipe and video, I found it very helpful. My fam loves this dish, especially with the pickled ginger and extra shrimp in it. I didn't try the homemade sauce or dashi yet, but am glad to know there's "room to grow" with this recipe.

Step 6, "Add thin strips of pork belly."

Wrong recipe?

Chris, Joshua adds pork belly as an optional addition. See 3:32 in the YouTube video to see it. I see that it's not listed in the ingredients though.
