SOUS VIDE KOREAN BBQ PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Pre-heat the sous vide water bath to 144°F.
• Combine the gochujang, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic and ginger in a bowl. Pierce the pork loin several times with a sharp paring knife and then place it in a FoodSaver® Bag. Pour the marinade on top and massage the marinade into the pork to coat it well. Vacuum seal the bag using the FoodSaver® vacuum sealer to remove all the air. This will ensure that the food will sink in the water bath and be completely submerged.
• Place the pork into the sous vide water bath and cook at 144ºF for at least 4 hours or for as long as 6 hours.
• While the pork is cooking, make the Korean BBQ sauce. Heat the olive oil in a medium sauce pan. Add the onion and sauté for a minute or two. Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for another minute. Add the tomato paste, brown sugar, gochujang, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce and sesame oil and bring the mixture to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes until the sauce thickens.
• Remove the pork from the sous vide water bath, open the bag and place the pork loin on a baking sheet. Discard the juices.
• Pre-heat the broiler. Brush the Korean BBQ sauce onto all sides of the pork loin and broil for two minutes on each side, turning and brushing the pork with more BBQ sauce as you broil. Alternatively, you can grill the pork on a very hot grill or in a very hot grill pan for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, basting with BBQ sauce. Either way, avoid broiling or gilling the pork for too long, so that you don't overcook it.
• Transfer the pork loin to a cutting board, cover with foil and let it rest for a few minutes.
• Slice the pork loin and transfer slices to serving platter. Garnish with chopped scallions and serve with the with any remaining BBQ sauce on the side.

KOREAN PORK BULGOGI

Steps:

• Remove the silver skin and any visible fat from the pork tenderloin. Slice into thin pieces, then cut those pieces into 3 or 4 thin and long strips. Place into a large bowl or a zip lock bag.
• Mix up the marinade, by combining all the marinade ingredients and stir well. Pour over the meat in the bowl or bag and toss well to coat and combine. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.
• When ready to cook, heat oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add all the pork with the marinade to the skillet and cook, stirring, until almost all the liquid has disappeared, 5-7 minutes. *Bulgogi is usually cooked until fairly dry and browned, but if you want a saucy bulgogi for some reason, don't cook off all the liquid. Make a slurry of 1 Tbsp cornstarch and 1 Tbsp cold water and add a bit at a time to the hot skillet, stirring after each addition, until desired sauce thickness is achieved.
• Serve with lettuce leaves and cooked rice and the optional Gochujang sauce (or any spicy Asian sauce will work here).
