2. Pour the grains and let them soak in oil. Pour in mushroom broth seasoned with miso, bring to a boil, cover with a lid and cook on low heat for about ten minutes without stirring.

3. Top with thinly sliced wagyu fat - it will melt and become transparent. Regular village pork fat won't disappoint either. Add some vegetables, like pickled asparagus and broccolini. But pickled or salted cucumbers will also work very well.
