This recipe is the best dish I make with love because it relates to my Korean heritage and is a great tribute to my late grandmother, who taught me how to cook the most delicious Korean recipes!! This was one of my favorite Korean dishes to eat as a child and I still love it to this day! My kids, who are 7 and 4, absolutely LOVE Korean food as well because I cook many Korean dishes at home, just like my grandmother taught me as a child. They can't stop eating Korean food, and this is one of their favorites! When we visited Korea (pre-COVID), they never missed a beat and loved eating all the food there, because they were accustomed to eating Korean food at home in America. My grandmother was raised in Gwangju, Korea, located in Jeolla province, which is known for it's delicious traditional Korean cuisine. Hence, this recipe is the best dish I make with love because not only is it a recipe from my grandmother, but it reflects my Korean heritage and gives me something to pass on to my own children. This is also a wonderful dish to share with others, whether it's a part of a meal train, or just serving for guests in your home! I've delivered this meal for many meal trains helping new moms adjust to life with a newborn because you can freeze the marinated (uncooked) meat until you need it and gives the recipient the freedom to cook it whenever she needs it. It's always wonderful to have "emergency food" in the freezer!
