Extra soft tofu soup, soondubu jjigae, is the most popular recipe request I received from people. It was amazing to get so many requests. This proves that many people from the world like this soup. The broth is spicy and matches great with the extra soft tofu. With the same basic seasonings as this soup, you can choose your own variety. You can use only beef, or clam. You can also use both as I did in this recipe. The kimchi is optional. I’m very happy with this recipe, so I hope you like this too.

The Korean beef side-dish Tteok GalBi is a very tasty dish that is a good representative of Korean food flavor. Tteok means sticky rice cakes and galbi is a marinated Korean meat dish. However, you will find out that there is no sticky rice cakes in this recipe. So then, why it is called “Tteok Galbi?” The original Galbi dish uses beef or pork ribs. Tteok galbi has a similar taste with galbi, however, the texture is like sticky rice cakes because it has ground beef and other vegetables in it. Many people love bulgogi or galbi. The soy sauce and sweet flavor mixed with garlic, green onion, and sesame oil makes this dish very flavorful. This recipe can have a strong garlic or onion flavor, so if you don’t like them much, you can reduce the amount. It will be a good dish for a party.

Today, I will show you how to make a type of Korean style DeopBaps. As I said, there are many different kinds of DeopBaps in Korea. Wait, you will start to wonder, what is DeopBaps. hehe… It is a Korean word for a certain type of dish – If you serve some food (usually cooked with different kinds of meat, vegetables, and sauce) on top of rice, and you mix the rice with the food before eating, we call that kind of dish, DeopBap. The SoGoGi DeopBap that I’m going to make today is a non spicy type of DeaopBap. The beef has bulgogi flavor, and there are many kinds of vegetables in this dish. Later, I will post different kinds of DeopBaps. See you soon again~~~

Bulgogi is a very popular marinated Korean beef dish. When you make too much bulgogi, and can’t eat it all at once, what will you do with it? Recently, someone asked me if she can reheat the bulgogi later. I told her to put some of the uncooked marinated beef in a freezer bag, and put it in the freezer for a quick meal later. It still tastes good and it is very easy to prepare since it’s ready for cooking.
Today, I will show you another use for excess bulgogi – bulgogi stew. Use some of the uncooked marinated beef and sauce for this recipe. Just adding some added vegetables and noodles will result in this quick dish. Of course it’s very yummy also. Since I already posted how to make bulgogi before, I will skip that part and post a link to it instead. Here are the instructions.
