This Korean soup uses a couple of skills that are good to master. One is making a suitable soup stock and the other is how to saute some vegetables. The rest is just construction and everyone can do that. It is my mom’s and my take on Kahl Gook Soo ( 칼국수).

This does taste best on the bbq grill, but if you cannot grill outside, then use a roasting pan and broil it in your oven.

You will need to plan ahead as you want to marinate the meat for at least 8 hours, if not overnight, but I know that this will make a great party meal.

This is a spicy slaw, that looks sort of like kimchee, is spicy like kimchee, but really is a slaw. I loved the texture, and I especially liked it with black pork belly.

A big hit with kids, the ribs are slightly sweet, but not cloyingly so, but are rich and full of flavor.

The kimchee flavor blends so harmoniously into the background, all you knew was that you were eating a delicious burger, but you didn’t attribute it to the kimchee. So, if you want to put a little kick in your burger (incidentally, it’s not spicy), try adding some kimchee, and get your taste buds revved up for some action.

I really like to remind my readers that sometimes a bit of planning ahead makes for a much easier meal a few nights later. I thought I’d focus on the beef flank steak recipe, only because it is so good, easier than kalbi and bulgogi (in terms of marination and cooking) and can easily be made in bulk for a BBQ or a party. After you cook it, it is easily cut into small chunks that can go in bibimbap or you can serve it with steamed cabbage or lettuce as you would bulgogi.
