Galbi

What is it? Marinated short ribs
Galbi is how most people come to know Korean food (other than through Kimchi). The pear-soy marinade it's slathered with is super sweet, slightly salty, and always addictive. Recipe here.

Yukgaejang

What is it? Spicy shredded beef stew
Don't worry, yukgaejang is not as spicy as its scary red color might suggest. In fact, it's considered a comfort food and is a staple dish in every Korean home. Recipe here.
Jjajangmyeon

What is it? Noodles in black bean sauce
Chewy noodles and greasy black sauce are a match made in noodle heaven. In fact, though Chinese in origin, this dish is the most popular takeout item in Korea, and as loved among Koreans as kimchi. Recipe here.
