salted sesame oil
[js]
After seeing Jonny's and Amy's gorgeous grilled veal tongue, I was inspired to make something grilled, in the sorta-woulda-coulda-sorta Korean vein. See, I had short ribs in the fridge, cut thin flanken-style, and my first thought was kalbi.
I've made kalbi several times before and it has always turned out quite well. However, I didn't want to make kalbi that day. A cousin-in-law, who is Korean, had just come and gone, and the intimidation factor was still there a day later. ;)
I had miso paste in the fridge, so might as well use the miso. I made a paste of miso, honey, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, black pepper, and a touch of sesame oil.
Grilling was not an option because of laziness.We got home and had about 30 minutes to prepare dinner. I didn't want to go through the grilling routine, waiting for the grill to heat up.
I put the ribs on the skillet and waited for them to caramelize.
Top with chopped up green onions, dip in the sesame oil-salt mixture, squirt with lemon, serve with rice, and it's dinner in under 30 minutes.
As for the tongue part of the inspiration, we're working on it.
Oh beef short ribs, how I do love thee.
