## Tips

- You can also use dark miso for the pork instead of doenjang.
- A pear, pineapple, or any similar fruit can be used instead of an apple.
- You can add water or stock, or a can of Coca-Cola or Pepsi for simmering the pork.
- Once you start eating this pork with the cabbage, garlic, chilli and Ssamjang sauce, the only thing that will stop you is physically being too full to eat more.
