Korean Bulgogi Marinade

Name: Korean Bulgogi Marinade
Prep time: 30 min
Total time: 30 min
Cuisine: korean
Ingredients: 1/2 cup soy sauce; 1/4 cup grated Asian pear; 2 tbsp brown sugar; 2 tbsp sesame oil; 2 tbsp mirin; 4 garlic cloves, grated; 1 tsp grated ginger; 2 scallions, minced; 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds; 1/2 tsp black pepper

Grated Asian pear is the restaurant secret — a natural enzyme that leaves the beef silky. Pairs with Ssamjang and the gochugaru rub. Best on thin-sliced ribeye, sirloin, and short rib.

Ingredients

4servings

1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup grated Asian pear
2 tbsp brown sugar
2 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp mirin
4 garlic cloves, grated
1 tsp grated ginger
2 scallions, minced
1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
1/2 tsp black pepper

Method

1.Mix the marinade

Whisk everything together in a bowl until the sugar dissolves.

2.Marinate and cook

Marinate thin-sliced beef 2 to 6 hours, or a thicker cut overnight. Do not push past a day — the pear enzyme keeps working the whole time and will over-soften the surface. Pat dry, then cook hot and fast.
