Korean Beef Bulgogi on CT Style with Teresa Dufour!

This week I was excited to show you how to make an easy and delicious dish on CT Style for the new year! The marinade for this Korean Beef Bulgogi recipe is so versatile you’ll find yourself going back to it over and over for these luscious flavors.

Cooking with Teresa Dufour on CT Style couldn’t be more fun! She is such a professional in her field, all awhile being her natural down to earth self! When we are going live for the camera’s it feels as though we are just hanging out in one anothers kitchen, laughing and cooking it up.

The marinade for this Beef Bulgogi is delicious on any meat, scrumptious chicken and pork.  Really easy to bring these wonderful flavors of the soy, toasted sesame oil, garlic and green onion to whole pieces of chicken breasts and thighs, beef london broil and ribeye, and pork tenderloin with out all the prep of slicing.

Let’s not forget the sugar in this marinade, a key player working hard as a natural tenderizer! In Korean cooking, sometime’s you’ll find grated asian pear in the ingredient list. An enzyeme in the asian pear called calpain naturally tenderizes the meat while giving it a hint of sweetness.

This marinade alone will make a great addition to your cooking repertoire!
