If you love to eat Kalbi, then you know that Korean restaurants serve Kalbi with a dipping sauce. This sauce is so easy and delicious and I like to whip up a double batch and use half of it the next day for a stir-fry.
So, my friend Mona, knew I was making Kalbi today and calls to ask me if I was going to make the Dipping Sauce. I’m like what, uh oh, I forgot about that, so, this sauce is courtesy of Mona.
Obviously, a Korean dipping sauce is made with Korean ingredients, but since my kitchen condiments are limited, I used Japanese Soy Sauce, Japanese Rice Wine (mirin) and Thai chili paste, so if you don’t have all Korean ingredients, don’t worry.
The sauces vary a bit from Country to Country, so it won’t taste identical to a Korean restaurant, but it will taste close enough to feel authentic. Since I blended the ingredients in my VitaMix, it looks cloudy, rather than soy sauce color with remnants.
Serve with my Pressure Cooker Kalbi.
