Cut the meat into cubes or strips for the meat grinder.

Freeze the meat for roughly 30 minutes before grinding.

Grind the lean meat and fat separately using the smallest perforated disc.

In a bowl chopper or kitchen mixer, combine the lean meat with all the spices, miso, and soy sauce.

Add the cooled dashi and parsley, then mix in the fat to form a fine paste.

Check the temperature of the mixture; it should not exceed 12°C (54°F).

Oil a baking form and transfer the sausage mixture into it, smoothing it out and cutting a pattern into the top.

Reduce the heat to 120°C (248°F) and continue cooking until the core temperature reaches 70°C (158°F).
