Kalbi (marinated beef)


In Korea, there is such a thing as it has a "hand" taste, meaning the hands that made the food are just as critical to the recipe. The ingredients to any kalbi recipe has many similarities, this one works for me and what my mom handed down to me and this made it my own (with my "hand" flavor).

Ingredients:

1 package of LA Kalbi 2-4 lbs (sliced rib meat with bone, found in Asian food stores)

Marinade:
1 large onion chopped
1 bundle of scallions chopped into 2-3 inch pieces lengthwise
1 apple/pear grated with juices
1 garlic clove minced
2/3 cup of soy sauce
1/2 cup of sesame oil or canola oil
1 can of soda (like coke)
1 cup of sugar

Mix all the ingredients for the marinade together. Rinse the LA Kalbi pieces briefly under cold water and then put into the marinade. Marinate for at least 4 hours or overnight in the fridge before grilling or frying. Serve with rice and/or wrap into lettuce wraps and add some miso paste to the wrap.
