Galbi will hit the Emmy Awards


Galbi literally means 'rib', generally refers to a variety of grilled dishes in Korean cuisine made from marinated short ribs in ganjang-based sauce (dark brown Korean soy sauce). This popular Korean grilled dish will hit Hollywood stars's palate at the Emmy Awards party.

Galbi is generally cooked right at customer's tables on grills set in the table. It's typically served with lettuce and some leafy vegetables used to wrap the meat, which is then dipped in ssamjang, a sauce made of fermented bean curd and red pepper paste. Many Korean dishes incorporate with ribs, like Galbitang (clear soup containing pieces of galbi) and Galbi Jjim (steamed beef short ribs). Some restaurants also serve 'pork galbi' and chicken galbi which is a popular specialty of the Chuncheon region.
