Grilled Korean-Style Short Ribs
Adapted from a recipe a July 2002 Bon Appetit recipe.
Marinade
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/8 cup mirin (sweet Japanese rice wine) or sweet Sherry
3 TB honey or 2 TB sugar
1 TB cup unseasoned rice vinegar
1 TB sesame oil
3 cloves minced garlic
1 green onion, chopped
1 pound Korean-style short ribs
Combine marinade ingredients in a bowl; whisk to blend well. Pour into resealable plastic bag. Add ribs; seal bag. Turn bag over several times to coat ribs evenly. Refrigerate overnight, turning bag occasionally.
Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat) or broiler. Drain ribs; discard marinade. Grill ribs (or broil) until browned and cooked to medium-rare, about 3 minutes per side. Mound ribs on platter; surround with chopped spinach and serve.
