How To: Make pork shogayaki (gingered pork)

If the screenshot above isn't enough to convince you to make this melt in your mouth, gingery dish, then maybe the description will. Pork shogayaki is made with tender pieces of pork loin topped with a ginger sauce made with soy sauce, sake, garlic, and mirin.

This traditional Japanese dish is surprisingly light and healthy, too, requiring none of the thick butters and greasy oils that many American dishes use to flavor their foods. Instead, this pork dish is seasoned with (gasp!) actual seasoning such as spices and alcohol instead.
