Add 1-2 tablespoons of gochujang (Korean chili paste) or gochugaru (Korean chili flakes) to the marinade for a spicy kick.
If you don't have a grill, you can cook these under the broiler. Place marinated ribs on a foil-lined baking sheet and broil on high for 3-5 minutes per side, watching carefully to prevent burning.
If you can't find an Asian pear, you can substitute with a Bosc pear or a kiwi. Note that kiwi is a very powerful tenderizer, so reduce marination time to 2-3 hours.
Beef short ribs are packed with high-quality protein, which is essential for building and repairing tissues, supporting muscle mass, and maintaining overall body function.
This dish provides a significant amount of heme iron, which is easily absorbed by the body and helps prevent anemia. It's also a great source of Vitamin B12, crucial for nerve function and the formation of red blood cells.
The marinade includes garlic and ginger, which are known for their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, potentially boosting the immune system and aiding digestion.
Flanken-cut is a style of cutting beef short ribs where the ribs are cut across the bone into thin strips, typically about 1/2-inch thick. This cut is popular in Korean cuisine for grilling (as in LA Galbi) because it cooks quickly and absorbs marinade well.
Yes! You can cook the ribs on a cast-iron grill pan on the stovetop over high heat, or under your oven's broiler. For both methods, cook for 3-5 minutes per side until charred and cooked through.
A Bosc pear or even a sweet apple like Fuji can be used as a substitute for its sweetness. For tenderizing, you can also use a tablespoon of pineapple juice or half a kiwi, but be careful not to marinate for more than a few hours as they are very potent.
