Galbitang is a traditional Korean beef short rib soup that features tender, slow-cooked short ribs in a rich, savory broth. This comforting dish is made with a variety of ingredients, including beef short ribs, Korean radish, onions, garlic, ginger, and gochugaru.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1
In a large pot, combine the beef short ribs, Korean radish, onions, garlic, ginger, and gochugaru. Pour in the soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and black pepper. Add the water to the pot and bring to a boil over high heat.
2
Once the pot is boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2-3 hours, or until the short ribs are tender and fall-off-the-bone.
3
Remove the pot from the heat and let it cool slightly. Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean pot, discarding the solids. Skim off any excess fat from the surface of the broth.
4
Serve the Galbitang Beef Short Rib Soup hot, garnished with green onions, toasted sesame seeds, and a sprinkle of gochugaru.
