Recipe 🍳

  1. Soak the beef tendon and brisket in cold water for at least 6 hours to remove blood.
  2. In boiling water, add doenjang, bay leaves, and whole black peppercorns. Add the blood-drained meat and blanch for exactly 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly in cold water.
  3. Place the blanched suji and arongsatae in a pressure cooker. Add green onion, onion, garlic, soup soy sauce, and enough water to barely cover. Steam over medium heat for 30 minutes.
  4. While the meat is steaming, cut the chives into bite-sized pieces. Toss lightly with gochugaru, vinegar, sesame oil, and sesame seeds to make seasoned chives.
  5. Take out the cooked suji and cut into bite-sized pieces. Mix lightly with the prepared seasoned chives.
  6. On a large plate, neatly arrange thinly sliced arongsatae. Pile the suji mixed with seasoned chives on top.
  7. Mix finely chopped green onion, cheongyang chili pepper, minced garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and yeon-gyeoja to make a spicy mustard sauce. Serve on the side.
  1. Drain the blood from the meat for 6 hours or more, then blanch with doenjang and aromatics for 10 minutes.
  2. Place in a pressure cooker with green onion, onion, garlic, soup soy sauce, and water, then steam over medium heat for 30 minutes until tender.
  3. Prepare sweet and sour seasoned chives and a soft mustard sauce, then plate with the steamed meat.

Cooking tips 💡

  • To completely remove the gamey smell of suji, be sure to soak out the blood for at least 6 hours and blanch with doenjang in the initial step.
  • Using a pressure cooker easily achieves a jelly-like, chewy and tender texture of suji without prolonged boiling.
  • The meat itself is only lightly seasoned, so it is much tastier when dipped in the special soy sauce with cheongyang chili pepper and mustard.
