Make It
Kalbi Beef:
-
In a blender, puree the onion, scallions, garlic, soy sauce, orange juice, mirin, sesame oil, sugar, and sesame seeds until smooth. Transfer the marinade to a large baking dish.
-
Add the short ribs, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Bring the short ribs to room temperature before cooking.
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Light a grill or preheat a grill pan and brush with vegetable oil.
-
Working in batches, grill the short ribs over high heat, turning once, until nicely browned and charred in spots, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the ribs to a rimmed baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you grill the remaining ribs.
-
To serve, chop the Kalbi beef and serve with warm corn tortillas, Dandy® Celery Kimchi and Dandy® Radish Salsa Roja.
Dandy® Celery Kimchi:
-
Combine Dandy® Celery, red jalapenos and cilantro leaves in a small bowl.
-
Sprinkle sea salt and sugar over the Dandy® Celery and let stand for 1 hour. Add lime juice, vinegar and fish sauce and let stand for 1 day.
Dandy® Radish Salsa Roja:
-
Heat a heavy medium frying pan over medium-high heat until hot. Cook tomatoes and jalapeños until blistered and charred on all sides, turning as needed, about 9 to 10 minutes. Add chiles de árbol and cook, turning, just until fragrant, about 15 seconds.
-
Transfer tomatoes to a blender. Let chiles cool, then discard stems and peel off a little of the blackened skins. Add chiles to blender with garlic, onion, 2 tsp. salt, and 6 tbsp. water.
-
Whirl until fairly smooth. Add cilantro and Dandy® Radish Ministicks and blend. Season with salt to taste.
