Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Doenjang seasoning can burn more easily than soy sauce, so maintaining a low heat or using thinly sliced meat can reduce the chances of failure.
  • Adjust the amount of sugar or doenjang slightly to find the optimal balance of sweetness and saltiness according to your preference.
  • Sesame oil has a strong aroma; adding too much can mask the deep and clean flavor of doenjang, so use only a small amount at the finishing stage.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to try a new meat dish with a deep and clean flavor, moving away from ordinary soy sauce-based bulgogi.
  • Those who want to experience the balance of umami and know-how in using fermented pastes in everyday life, as suggested by Michelin 3-star Chef Sung Anh.
  • Those who are looking for a special dinner side dish that the whole family can enjoy with its mild and gentle flavor.
