I loved this episode of Boy Meets Grill with Bobby and Jen Lee. My family enjoyed all the Korean recipes. We saved money by cooking our own Korean food at home (we usually eat out. Who would have thought Korean food was that easy to prepare and cook. Thank you for sharing. Jen Lee was so sweet on the show. Please invite her again:

This made a nice light (and spicy side with the marinated short ribs from the same episode of Grill It. I added a lot more gochuchang paste because we like spicy... See my photos: http://ladyberds-kitchen.blogspot.com/2010/04/korean-bbq-marinated-short-ribs-in.html

So glad that Bobby Flay had Jen Lee on his show to make this. My mom made Oi moochim all the time growing up (so yummy and I was craving it. She gave me her recipe, but like many moms, there were no measurements. This was great to help with that. Pretty similar to my mom's recipe...of course, not *as* good :-



The gochuchang paste was delicious too. Not only is it good for making oi moochim, but it is also great on korean beef ribs...my favorite - korean beef, rice, and gochuchang paste inside lettuce leaves.

i had a whole bunch of bok choy and i thought i would marinate them in the same style as cucumbers. The marinade was delicious and exactly what I was looking for. I skipped Dashida as it is mostly MSG and it tasted great!

This went very well with the Bibimbap. Not too spicy, easy to prepare. I used english cucumber instead of Kirby and didn't make the gochuchang paste, I just added some of the gochugang sauce to the marinade directly, that way it wasn't as think as it was, when she made it on the show. My huband and I both loved it!

This is just like going out to a good Korean restaurant. I didn't have the beef stock, so I used garlic salt, and it was fine.

Trust me when I say that no stores in Aberdeen,South Dakota sell Gochuchang paste. I made the cucumbers for lunch this noon and substituted red garlic chili paste for the Gochuchang and beef soup base for the dashida It was really flavorful. I will definitely make it again.

I live 3,000 miles away from my Korean mother and I miss her food daily. So, I have been slowly trying to learn how to cook all the great Korean foods that she made. This is on erecipe that ranks right up there with what I remember growing up.
