2. Add cabbage to the pot, followed by alcohol and mirin which you use to deglaze the pan. Then add the water and mensu and bring to a gentle simmer. Crumble bacon and add to pot.
3. Once cabbage is almost tender add frozen udon and wait for mixture to return to a simmer. Serve when cabbage is at desired texture, garnish with green onion.
