    Hi SungHero03,

    I have to imagine it would work just fine. I would suspect you just have to alter the cooking time based on the size of the tenders and the fact that there is no bone. When I was in Korea last year, I had some real KFC and they were tenders. Or at least they didn’t have any bones!

    Cheers!

    Hi Jamielee~

    I’m a little late to the party but I would suggest you get some seed and grow your own. I have had real good luck with seeds from the Kitazawa Seed Co. which you can order online. They are hearty plants and produce large radishes!

    Did you already find a source?

    Cheers!

    Hi Nhattuanueb!

    Did you solve the problem with the marinading meat? I wish I could help you more. I think the sauce you saw another chef put on must be different than Maangchi’s as bulgogi and kalbi must marinate. Only thicker sauces can you put on as you are grilling like American style BBQ sauce. Then you pit them on near the end of cooking and they stick to the surface of the meat. But it wouldnt taste Korean style then :-/

    I’m sorry I couldnt help more. The only answer I have is to find room to marinate. It only needs 30 minutes.

    Cheers!

    Hi veeta! Maangchi has a great page describing the green chili and lists many recipes to use it in here:

    Green chili peppers (Cheong-gochu)

    At my favorite local Korean restaurant (Shira Kiku, Nashua NH USA) they make a dish called Gochu Japchae. It is japchae with lots of sliced green chili peppers! I love this one!

    Cheers!

    Hi Nhattuanueb! You can baste the meat with a marinade when you are cooking but it doesnt have long enough time to get the flavor into the meat. It’s better to let it sit in the marinade for at least an hour.

    Only when I make pulled pork or beef brisket in the smoker, then I baste with a marinade every 30 minutes. But in that case the meat will cook for minimum 6 hours!

    Cheers!

    Hi FANtasy121!

    Can you get sea salt? That will work fine. And in a pinch (no pun intended), I suppose you could use table salt as well.

    Cheers!

    Hi Oxide!

    I also get my seeds from Kitazawa! I have had good success with them. That reminds me~ I need to order more kkatnip (Korean Perilla) and Korean radish.

    Cheers!

    EvilGrin,

    I have done lemon grass in the past. Also Vietnamese coriander/rau ram. Currently doing Thai chili and garlic chives as well. Never tried culantro though. We can seem to get it in the local Asian markets. We are lucky to have several pan Asian, Vietnamese and Korean markets including HMart nearby.

    Cheers!

    Hi Maangchi!

    It’s that time of year again! The garden is in and doing well! The usual suspects are in there… Napa cabbage, Korean radish, Korean cucumber, Korean pepper and Perilla along with other peppers, cabbage, kale, swiss chard, lettuce, beans, green onions and tomatoes.

    I can’t wait to make kimchi, kkakdugi and oi sobagi using my veggies and your recipes!

    Cheers!

    Radam씨는 안녕하세요!

    Haha! Very nice! You are not alone! There’s another white guy out there with a kimchi fridge! In my case it’s a “do it yourself” version!

    Kimchi Refrigerator!

    Hi Maangchi!

    Here is my latest garden update! I had some trouble with slugs eating my baechu, but I think they are making a comeback! The radishes, peppers, kkatnip, leeks and cucumbers are doing pretty good! I'miss hoping I get enough cucumbers and "passion altieri" (that's what Kitazawa Seed Co. calls them) radishes to make cucumber kimchi and ponytail radish kimchi along with baechu kimchi and kkakdugi!

    Cheers,
    Dave

    PS the last one is a picture of our front yard. My veggie garden is on the right.
