JEYUK BOKKEUM (OR SPICY PORK BULGOGI)

Steps:

• Thinly slice the meat, if not pre-sliced.
• Mix all marinade ingredients well in a large bowl. Add the meat and toss everything well to evenly coat the meat with the marinade. Add the onion and scallions and toss again. Let it sit for about 30 minutes.
• Grill or pan fry in a skillet (in 2 batches) over medium high heat until slightly caramelized. Adjust the heat as necessary.

SPICY KOREAN PORK (DAEJI BULGOGI)

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Slice the pork into very thin pieces, about the thickness of bacon.
• Add the marinade ingredients (onion, garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce, kochujang, sugar, rice wine, ginger) to a shallow marinade dish or plastic bag and mix them to combine.
• Add the pork to the marinade. Allow the meat to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or as long as an hour.
• Grill or broil the meat for about 4 to 8 minutes or until done. Alternatively, you can stir-fry the pork in an ungreased pan for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Serve and enjoy!

BULGOGI

Steps:

• MARINADE: Cut meat across the grain into very thin slices and then narrow strips. Combine soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, pepper or chili, sesame seeds and green onions. Marinate beef at least 3 hours, refrigerated. Remove beef from the marinade. Cook to desired doneness.

BULGOGI JEONGOL

Steps:

• For the dasima broth: Combine the dasima and 8 cups cold water in a large pot. Let sit until the dasima swells until doubled in size and the water turns slightly green-yellow, about 30 minutes. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; boil until the dasima starts to foam around the sides, 1 to 3 minutes. Discard the dasima, then add the radish and simmer until the radish is soft enough to be easily pierced with a fork, about 25 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in the guk-ganjang and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Discard the radish; you should have about 4 cups broth. Set aside.
• For the bulgogi: Whisk the soy sauce, sugar, mirin, sesame oil, garlic and few grinds of black pepper together in a large bowl until combined and most of the sugar is dissolved. Add the beef to the marinade and toss until the beef is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 8 hours.
• For the assembly: Soak the dangmyeon noodles in a large bowl of lukewarm to warm water until they bend around your hands nicely when lifted, 20 to 30 minutes. Drain in a colander and set aside while preparing the other ingredients.
• To assemble the dish, place the onion over the bottom of a 12-inch high-sided skillet or shallow pot with a lid. Follow with the soaked dangmyeon noodles. Then add as much or little of the bulgogi, oyster mushrooms, shiitakes, tofu, enoki, carrot, crown daisy, minari, cabbage and scallions as you like to the pot (pack the ingredients in as the mushrooms will cook down). Carefully pour the prepared dasima broth in; you can start off with 3 cups or add all 4 cups of the both for a soupier version.
• Cover with a tight-fitting lid. Bring to a boil over high heat and let cook until the vegetables are tender and cooked through and the bulgogi turns brown, 2 to 4 minutes. (If you want more broth, add some water and season with salt.) Serve immediately with rice on the side. And don't forget to dig down to the dangmyeon noodles on the bottom!
