Rafute
A classic Okinawan pork dish – Okinawa-style braised pork belly!
About Rafute
Rafute (ラフテー, Rafute) is a beloved traditional dish from Okinawa. Made by slow-cooking skin-on pork belly or hīsāgā in a flavorful mixture of brown sugar, soy sauce, and awamori (Okinawan distilled spirit), this dish is rich and tender. While it may look indulgent, its surprisingly light and healthy taste will surprise you.
Pair it with a glass of awamori for a relaxing moment, or enjoy it for a hearty meal by placing thin slices of Rafute over rice or noodles. Either way, it's a delicious taste of Okinawan cuisine.
