Cooking tips 💡

• The outer skin of the onion contains aromatic compounds and is traditionally simmered with the meat, so always wash it thoroughly with the skin on for best results.
• Cola adds a pleasant sheen and natural sweetness to the braising liquid, significantly softening the meat, while soju removes off-flavors with its alcohol content.
• Slicing the meat immediately after cooking while still hot causes the juices to leak out and the cut surface to break apart easily, so allow it to cool for about 2 minutes before slicing to maintain clean, neat presentation.
• When serving more people and adding an extra pound of meat, simply increase the existing ratio by adding 1 cup of Korean dark soy sauce and 1 cup of water to keep the seasoning balanced.
