3 cloves garlic, smashed
1-inch piece ginger, sliced
1 lb. raw pork tenderloin

3 packets unflavored gelatin
3 Tbsp. miso paste
1 Tbsp. tahini paste
1 Tbsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 clove garlic, finely chopped

5 quarts water
3 Tbsp. baking soda
1 Tbsp. sea salt (or Himalayan salt)

FOR TOPPINGS:
2 medium heads baby bok choy, sliced in half lengthwise, steamed
4 large soft-boiled (or hard-boiled) eggs
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1 tsp. sesame seeds
INGREDIENTS
1. Preheat the oven to 275° F.
2. To make pork, add sake, soy sauce, water, brown sugar, green onions, garlic, and ginger to an oven-safe pot over medium-high heat; stir to combine. Bring to a boil; remove from heat.
3. Add pork; cover. Bake, turning once halfway through, for 45 minutes. Drain; discard liquid. Set aside.
4. While pork bakes, make broth by adding broth and gelatin to a large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat.
5. Add miso, tahini, soy sauce, and garlic to a small mixing bowl. Spoon in 2 Tbsp. warm broth; stir to form a thin paste (add extra broth, if needed). Add miso mixture and mushrooms; whisk to combine. Cover; set aside.
6. When pork finishes cooking, make noodles by adding water, baking soda, and salt to a large pot over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Add spaghetti; cook according to package directions. Drain; rinse under cold water. Divide evenly among 4 serving bowls.
7. Slice pork thinly; divide pork and mushrooms evenly among bowls. Top each with ½ head bok choy, 1 egg, 1 green onion, and ¼ tsp. sesame seeds. Pour 1 cup hot broth over each bowl. Enjoy!
